Sober Awkward

So, you made it through Dry January—congrats! But now what? The hype has fizzled, the social media high-fives are over, and those sneaky little excuses to start drinking again are creeping in. Don’t panic; we’ve got your back.

In this episode of Sober Awkward, Vic and Hamish dig into life beyond the January booze-free bubble. They’ll share practical tips, clever hacks, and a healthy dose of awkward humour to help you keep the sober momentum going, no matter what temptations pop up.

Whether it’s navigating social pressure, dealing with your inner wine witch, or just figuring out what to do with your evenings, this episode will help you stay on track, keep your resolve strong, and maybe even enjoy it. Yes, really.

Tune in for some laughs, way to many animal references, some wisdom, and a nudge to keep going—it’s worth it, we promise!

Sober Awkward was lucky enough to pin down one of British TV's most recognisable faces - the incredible Ulrika Jonsson - for an honest and heartfelt chat about her first seven months of sober life.

In this inspiring episode, Ulrika spills the sober beans with Hamish, sharing everything from the pivotal day she decided to quit drinking to the profound changes she’s experienced since. She opens up about using alcohol to mask trauma, the surprising freedom she’s discovered in sobriety, and the awkward—but empowering—experience of dating sober at 57.

In a particularly moving moment (especially for Vic when editing), Ulrika reflects on how a single Instagram post by Vic helped her release the shame tied to over-drinking and embrace a transformative new chapter of self-discovery.

This is a must-listen episode for anyone seeking inspiration, courage, and proof that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.
