Last Call: Season Conclusions

In this final episode of season one, I take a look back on the history of alcohol, touching on some of the key topics and takeaways from antiquity to Prohibition. What can we glean from this history of drinking, and more importantly, the so-called 'drunkard'? Where does this issue stand now, and how do those suffering from alcohol use disorder today compare to those who struggled with drinking centuries ago? Tune in to listen to this concluding discussion, which includes my own thoughts on the season, as well as my notes of thanks to all who helped me make this show. A massive thanks goes out to all who have listened, too! Listen through to the end of the episode for a trailer for season two: The Season of the Witch, premiering October 12!
