Summary
There are some weird people in this world that don't get hangovers. They drink a case full of beers and wake up the next day feeling fine and dandy. So, why would someone like this ever quit alcohol and how can you help someone that is still in the honeymoon period of boozing?
Well, today Vic and Hamish try to find out. In the first episode of this two part extravaganza, they discover why some people don't suffer dusty comedowns the next day, how genetics play a role and why which booze you choose makes hangovers more severe.
They will also take a look at the reality of the hangover - is it just 24 hours of feeling like shit or is there more long term damage that people ignore just to keep the party going?
So, because they waffled on for far too long about this it's been split into two episodes - next week we go from the 'no hangover unicorns' to about chatting to someone you love that is still........ totally in love with booze.
