Summary
This week in the Share Shed there is a story that some people may relate to - involving bodily functions. Vic opens the inbox to a story that starts like many girls trips do - a night out in Greece, one too many, a nice younger man, a shag and then.....
Well, Vic will let you find out the next bit!
The Share Shed is where listeners send in their funniest, cringiest and most unbelievable drinking stories. It’s not about judgement, it’s about recognising how wild things could get when alcohol was in charge, and laughing about it now we’re on the other side.
If you’ve got a story you’d like to get off your chest, funny, awkward or slightly ridiculous, you can send it to Vic at:
vic@soberawkward.com
Anonymous is absolutely fine. In fact - for legal reasons - probably preferable!!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Thursday share shed of questions and confessions. |
| 0:10.0 | The bit of the week where I'll fling open the doors of sober awkward and let everything tumble out. |
| 0:15.7 | If you've got a cringy moment that still pops up uninvited at 3am. This is your chance to offload it. |
| 0:22.5 | Let's get it off your chest and stop these tumultuous tales lurking like the drunken ghosts of your |
| 0:28.3 | pissed up past. You can email your stories to vick at soberaawquad.com. Anonymous is encouraged, |
| 0:35.6 | oversharing is very welcome and judgment is most certainly banned. |
| 0:40.6 | So if you've ever worn a traffic cone on your head, had a weird one-night stand, |
| 0:45.5 | fallen asleep in a bush, puked in a bin, and yes, had the occasional running with the police, |
| 0:50.3 | or you just need to ask me a question about booze, then you're in the right place. |
| 0:54.9 | I believe nothing says growth like finally airing a bit of dirty laundry. |
| 1:00.4 | Let's evict those embarrassing memories once and for all. |

| 1:17.6 | That lovely day of the week where we get everything off our chests. |
| 1:22.5 | And here I am in my little studio about to open a couple of emails. |
| 1:26.4 | I'm going to record one now and another one for next |
| 1:28.5 | week because I got quite a few emails for the share shed. It seems to be picking up some momentum of |
| 1:34.6 | everybody thinking, well, I don't need to suffer with this inside my brain anymore. I may as |
| 1:39.2 | as well just tell Vic. And here I am, 100% up for it. Okay, wait, one sec, let me just open my email. I'm not sure, I'm not going to read the name out in case it says at the end that they want to be anonymous. Right. Hi, Vic, I just want to say I absolutely love your podcast. It's so relatable and most humorous. Well, thank you very much. And it's definitely helped me during my sobriety. Okay, that's good. That is sort of the |
| 2:01.8 | plan. Okay, here we go. After almost three decades of heavy drinking, I'm now sober since 16 months. |
| 2:09.5 | I have many things I have wanted to erase from my memory. This one is probably one of the worst and still |
