Love Island's Scott Thomas on Quitting Drinking After a Decade of Partying

Love Island's Scott Thomas on Quitting Drinking After a Decade of Partying

Scott Thomas, Love Island star, founder of one of the UK's most high-profile PR agencies and host of the Learning As I Go podcast, joins Sober Dave on One for the Road for an unusually honest conversation about quitting drinking, identity, and the cost of being the life of the party.

Scott was the golden child academically, the smart one in a family where both his brothers became famous at 16. He drank quarter-litres of vodka and Fanta on the streets at 13. By his 20s he was throwing parties for a living, getting chucked out of his own nights, and earning the nickname Scotty Special. Then a Mayfair Hotel chairman's luncheon nearly cost him his biggest client and his business partner.

Inside: living up to a reputation, trying moderation and finding it empty, ADHD and fight or flight, and why he's still figuring out what sobriety means.

Quitting drinking, Love Island, sober journey, ambition, sober entrepreneur.
