Summary
In this weeks honest, yet slightly humiliating episode, Vic and Lucy discuss all the positive side effects of choosing an alcohol-free lifestyle. They go over all the changes you'd expect to happen (no more hangovers, better sleep and more available parenting) to all the things that have come as a wonderful surprise to them, (liking themselves more, being more environmentally friendly and Lucy no longer having bad breath!) So, if you're questioning your relationship with booze, this candid chat will hopefully inspire you to bid farewell to the bottle and try a happier, healthier lifestyle.
