Summary
It's time to take a trip down memory lane and think about the first drags on mates soggy cigarette, reminisce about couging up your guts on the school bus and recollect you first ever spliff build! Why did we do it? Why did we think it was cool to smoke, was it simply to look cool in front of our peers or because a bottle of 'White Lightening cider' tends to flush smart decision making down the lavatory?
Today Vic and Hame are going to find out why people that drink are more likely to smoke and why combining the two is so bad for you. They'll reveal their own smoking histories, discover if the damage done is repairable and determine if we drank to smoke and smoked to drink?
They also talk about porn mags and an obsession with Zippo lighters! It's the usual mix of drivel and science.
Enjoy!

| 0:08.0 | Here you go. Should we get started then? |
| 0:16.0 | Have you ever woken up on a Sunday morning and said I'm never drinking again |
| 0:21.0 | and then found yourself waving 50 bucks at a barman by happy hour? |
| 0:25.2 | Are you wondering why everyone else can stop at one while you head to a dodgy after |

| 1:00.0 | Hamish and I are here to delve into what it's like being sober. |

| 1:18.4 | Well, Hamish, we'll just have to wait and see. I'm Victoria Vanstone. I'm Hamish Adams-Kairns. |
| 1:24.2 | And this is sober awkward. |

| 1:35.5 | intro is. No, it's a brilliant intro, but we've just started recording again because Vic |
| 1:40.3 | messed up the first time. She goes, hang on, I've got to get this right. This is important. |
