| 0:00.0 | Generally, I think Hey Minish and I will be grabbing a few straws here. |
| 0:07.7 | But yeah, don't take any advice because we are by no way millionaires. |
| 0:11.2 | No, what we're trying to do in this episode is explain some of the hidden savings you can make when giving up alcohol. |
| 0:16.8 | So I think there are loads of reasons why you might want to give up alcohol from improving your health, focusing on your career. |
| 0:22.6 | But yeah, for me, one of the reasons that played an integral role was money, particularly given the fact that I'm a new dad, our household incomes dropped significantly. |

| 1:17.9 | Yeah, yeah, go, go, go. |
| 1:20.2 | Yeah, so I don't know, when those kids come along and ruin everything and swear at you |
