New! Sober Awkward Top Ten - 10 x Signs You Are Drinking Too Much

Vic’s glasses are broken, her pancakes are drowned in maple syrup, and she’s hopped on the mic to share a list that might just hit a little too close to home. In this episode of Sober Awkward Top Tens, she dives into the classic clues that your relationship with booze might be more messy than manageable.

From texting your ex at 11.47 pm to developing suspicious rashes after red wine, from guilt shopping for detox teas to waking up with kebab receipts in your bra, this one is full of laughs, honesty, and lived experience.

Vic isn’t here to diagnose. She’s here to share the warning signs she missed, the excuses she made, and the moments she now sees for what they were.

If you’re listening to a sober podcast wondering if you’re drinking too much, well… you probably already know the answer.

So grab a fancy soda, avoid texting your ex, and come feel seen in the most awkward and brilliant way possible.
