In this final episode of Season 1 of Breaking Down, Breaking Down, Wil and Andy talk about British society’s approach to drinking.

Britain isn’t the only country in the world where people fancy the odd tipple. You could argue that on a day to day basis there may be countries where people drink more than the Brits. It’s the manner by which Brits consume alcohol when they do, and the manner by which the retail & hospitality industry capitalises on this which is the problem. We touch upon how sometimes even queuing in a Primark can be better for sanity and sobriety than going to your local supermarket, and just how brazen the tactics are to get people to stock up with booze, using almost any event as an excuse for offers.

Thanks for listening to this series of the podcast; if you made it through the entire season, you’ve earned yourself a virtual Hi-Five! We’ll be back with a new season in 2025 (Maybe!).

NOTE: This episode has minimal editing due to the time it took to upload. Apologies for this, we just wanted to get the episode out to you!
