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.

It’s 7.30 am, a blink ago it was 4.01 am. Walkie-talkies crackle into life. Someone pounds on the breastplate of a beaten door. A can hear a frog leaving a lily pad a mile away. A thought appears. “Don’t they know it’s 7.30 am!” The drilling begins. “Don’t they know it’s 7.30 am!” And. Now. The. Thought. Is. In. My. Head! It's handcuffed to my limbic system; it’s elbow leaning on the valve labelled anger. It pours into my mind. I can’t stop it. It’s on a loop. “Don’t they know it’s 7.30 am!” The noise outside stops. The noise inside doesn’t. And that’s what we talk about in today’s episode.
