Trump’s Alcohol Tariff: Why It Won’t Stop People Drinking

Governments think they can control alcohol consumption through pricing, but they fail to see the truth.

 

A 200% tariff on European alcohol might sound like a good move, but let’s be honest—people don’t quit drinking because it’s expensive. They cut something else instead. That’s the power of the Liquid Lie—it makes alcohol feel like a necessity, no matter the cost.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn:

✅ Why price hikes won’t make people stop drinking.

✅ How alcohol consumption isn’t a financial decision—it’s an automatic response.

✅ The real cost of alcohol beyond money—your health, energy, and peace of mind.

✅ Why governments keep getting it wrong with alcohol policies.

The Day I Quit Gambling and Alcohol—For Good

🚨 The Day I Quit Gambling and Alcohol—For Good 🚨

 

They don’t make wise, rational choices. These inner child parts—the ones running the show when we drink, gamble, binge, and scroll—aren’t strategists. They don’t think ahead. They react, they chase, they grasp at control.

 

That’s why I bet beyond my bankroll. Ate junk food I didn’t even like. Bought shit I didn’t need.

 

It was never about the money. It was about control. Trying to soothe something inside me that alcohol had numbed but never healed.

 

When I quit drinking at 35, I thought that was the big boss battle. But lurking in the shadows was another problem, bound to my drinking like handcuffs. And the moment I let go of alcohol, gambling disappeared effortlessly.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why alcohol and gambling are more connected than you think.

✅ How alcohol keeps you stuck in a cycle of impulsive, self-destructive choices.

✅ Why quitting alcohol wasn’t enough—I had to go deeper.

✅ How the STRIVE Method helped me dismantle the illusions of control.

✅ Why keeping momentum after quitting alcohol is everything.

ALCOHOL BLACKOUTS & THE DANGER WE IGNORE

🚨 The Truth About Alcohol Blackouts 🚨

 

Blacking out wasn’t just a phase—it was the norm. Not just for me, but for everyone I drank with. We laughed it off, wore it like a badge of honour. But here’s the truth: blackouts aren’t harmless. They strip us of control, leave us vulnerable, and make us complicit in a culture that turns a blind eye to real danger.

 

From my own experiences to the shocking realities I’ve witnessed around the world, this episode uncovers the hidden risk of alcohol blackouts—the one we’re told not to talk about. If you’ve ever woken up with no memory of the night before, you need to hear this.

The Football Booze Myth

🎙 The Football Booze Myth – Does Alcohol Really Enhance the Game? ⚽🍻

 

Scotland is debating lifting its long-standing alcohol ban at football matches. But does drinking really make the experience better—or is it just another illusion?

 

We’ve been conditioned to believe that booze enhances the thrill of live sports. But if you take a step back, you’ll see the reality: alcohol numbs your senses, drains your wallet, and distances you from the raw energy of the game. I’ve been to football matches both drunk and alcohol-free as fuck, and let me tell you—the difference is night and day.

 

This isn’t just about football. It’s concerts, festivals, and live events. We’ve been sold the idea that drinking is part of the ritual, but the real magic? It’s in being fully present.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ The truth behind alcohol’s grip on football culture.

✅ Why drinking actually dulls the experience, rather than enhancing it.

✅ The hidden cost of alcohol at sporting events—from missed moments to financial waste.

✅ How to challenge the myth and show up fully present at your next match.

 

🎯 Today’s Vow:

“I will not drink today. I will challenge the belief that alcohol makes any live event better. I will be fully present for the things I love.”

✅ The power of biofeedback tools—seeing real data makes change easier.

✅ The fundamental choice: Why ‘quitting alcohol’ isn’t enough unless you commit to living a healthy life.

Life is Boring Without Alcohol… Or Is It? 🤔

Life is Boring Without Alcohol… Or Is It? 🤔

 

You’ve heard it before—without alcohol, life is boring. But is that really true? Or is it just another piece of the Liquid Lie that keeps people trapped?

 

Today, we’re breaking down the absurdity of believing alcohol makes life exciting. From the five N’s of justification to the way alcohol numbs awareness rather than creating excitement, we’re exposing the truth about boredom and presence.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why believing alcohol makes life fun is part of the Liquid Lie.

✅ How alcohol doesn’t add excitement—it just numbs your awareness.

✅ The real reason people feel bored without drinking (hint: it’s about presence).

Why Quitting Alcohol Makes You Feel Like an Outsider (And Why That’s a Good Thing)

Why Quitting Alcohol Makes You Feel Like an Outsider (And Why That’s a Good Thing)

 

You don’t need to fit in—you need to stand out.

 

A listener shared: “I stopped drinking four years ago, and this is the first thing I’ve heard that makes me feel normal. I feel like an outsider around my friends. I find it hard to socialize with people from work. I feel like I’m not fun for others to hang out with anymore.”

 

Here’s my response—GOOD.

 

When you break free from the Liquid Lie, you stop being part of the herd. You start thinking differently, living differently, and that’s what sets you free. The truth is, most people feel like outsiders—they just drown that discomfort in alcohol. But you? You’re brave enough to see it.

 

In this episode, we’re flipping the script on loneliness after quitting alcohol. You’re not missing out—you’re waking up. And once you stop trying to fit in where you don’t belong, you open the door to the people who truly get you.

ADHD, Alcohol and the Real Path to Freedom

Is ADHD making it harder to quit drinking? You’re not imagining it. Alcohol and ADHD share a deep connection—one that keeps so many stuck in the cycle of distraction, impulsivity, and regret. But here’s the truth: the freedom you seek isn’t in another coping mechanism. It’s in rewiring your approach to alcohol, your mind, and your identity.

 

Today, we’re cutting through the noise. Why do so many with ADHD turn to alcohol? Why does traditional sobriety advice often fail them? And what’s the REAL path to breaking free?

Does Alcohol Rewire Your Brain to Keep Drinking?

🚨 Does alcohol change your brain, making it harder to quit? 🚨

 

A new study suggests alcohol accelerates brain aging and reduces behavioral flexibility, which some claim explains why quitting is so difficult. But is that really the whole story?

 

In today’s episode, I break down the real reason quitting feels hard—and why it’s got nothing to do with brain damage and everything to do with the Liquid Lie. If you still believe alcohol brings you value, of course, you’ll keep drinking. The key to freedom isn’t fighting against a “broken brain”—it’s seeing through the illusion.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why alcohol rewires your brain—but not in the way you think.

✅ The dangerous myth that quitting drinking is hard.

✅ How the Liquid Lie convinces you alcohol is natural, normal, necessary, nice, and noble.

✅ Why seeing the truth makes quitting easy and fun.

 

🎯 Today’s Vow:

“I will not drink today—because I refuse to let the Liquid Lie dictate my choices.”
