Welcome to The Truth About Alcohol. I’m Lee Davy.
This podcast is for people who know something about their drinking doesn’t quite add up — and want to understand why stopping can feel so much harder than it should.
No labels. No judgement. No “rock bottom” stories required.
We talk about what alcohol really does to the body, brain, and nervous system, why cravings and rituals are so persistent, and why willpower isn’t the issue most people think it is. You’ll hear calm, honest conversations that reduce shame, make the confusion make sense, and help you see your next step more clearly — whether you’re still drinking, trying to stop, or have stopped but don’t feel settled.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’m intelligent, capable, and functional… so why can’t I just stop?” you’re in the right place.

I remember the first time I visited a bar after I quit drinking. My friend asked me what I wanted to drink and I didn’t know what to say. “I’ll have a cup of Tea." I told him. “I am not ordering you a cup of tea.” He replied. These days I mainly drink water and herbal tea. It’s not a problem for me. But I do know that a lack of choice is a problem for a lot of people who have decided to stop drinking alcohol. And this is why I asked Andy Torres to appear as my guest in Episode 43 of the Alcohol & Addiction Podcast. Andy is the author of Nourishing Concoctions a book containing 19 wonderful non-alcoholic mocktails and during this episode we talk about implementing mindfulness when creating your drink, the importance of ritual, and much more.
