When it's time to end our drinking careers, we all have our "threshold moments" - those moments of clarity where we realize where we've crossed a line, and there is no going back.

For some, it may be desribed as a 'rock bottom moment', for others it may show up as a spiritual shift within oneself, for others it may be something your child or partner says to you...

We discuss what our threshold moments were, and how they echo into our current states of non-drinkerdom.

Moderation.

That word can send shivers up the spine of drinkers who believe they can have 'just one', those who have attempted numerous times to limit how much they drink, and those who hold out hope they can one day drink like a 'normal' person.

The thing about moderation is that after you reach a certain point in your drinking career, moderation becomes impossible.

And, really...why would you want to hold out hope that you can still pour poison down your throat?

Chris & Matt talk passionately about their own experineces with moderation attempts, as well as why they beleive moderation is not really an option for heavy drinkers.

Today we talk about relapses, or 'slip-ups' or whatever you may refer to them as.

Although it is beneficial to have the 100% all-in mentality when it comes to being alcohol-free, it is also important to have a plan if/when you do have a slip-up.

What is the REAL cost of alcohol?

Aside from the money you set aside each month for the drinks, themselves, what about the late night food purchases, the taxi rides, the DWI's, the lost money, the lost wallets and IDs and on and on...

Not to mention the cost of your own physical and mental health.

The cost of alcoholism to USA is $250 billion dollars annually!
