Sex, drugs, rock and roll and general jackassery.

This is the Todd and Tyler Radio Empire.

You sent me a story, Todd, and I was afraid to read it, but because it was why a drink, why a drink with alcohol hits harder with age.

But I'm kind of like what Nick says.

Sometimes you realize you're there.

Boy, I don't feel that bad.

That's worrisome, you know. Yeah. Yeah. More concerned about the hangovers that aren't there. Yeah. Yeah, me too. Yeah. I get instances where there should be a hangover. But now we know why there's not. Oh, we do know why now? Cool. It's not because it's less booze. Well, we do know why now? Cool.

It's not because it's less booge.

Well, as you age, you lose muscle mass.

And muscle mass contains a lot of water, which dilutes the alcohol.

And if you have less muscle mass, you probably have more fat. So the alcohol settles in there. So by lifting, which I do, uh, will help me stave off the alcohol abuse.

Right. All right. That's all I need here. It helps sustain your muscle mass. I'll be in the

gym today. That's why you should go to the gym at least once or twice a week and lift so you can drink more. Yeah, I lift. So your body metabolizes the alcohol a little bit differently. So that was the explanation here? Yeah. Lift to drink. Right. Yeah. Well, it just says it because you're losing muscle mass. So if you're not losing muscle mass, then you can drink like a young guy.

All right.

Sold.

Yeah.

Muscle stores water.

Water dilutes alcohol in our blood.

Having less muscle mass means alcohol will hang around the body a little bit longer.

Yeah, well, after the weekend at Omaha, man, I, you know,

I was pretty rough one there, yeah.
