This is without a doubt one of the best episodes on THCYM.

Paul Dillon joins me on the pod. Paul is an author, educator, podcaster with podcast ‘The real deal on drugs’ AND ‘Doing drugs with Paul Dillon’. Paul has been in the area of drug education for almost 30 years and is the owner of DARTA (Drug and Alcohol Research and Training). Paul travels around Australia and other countries presenting to organisations and schools and educating people on drugs. I can't express how much I learnt from Paul during this chat. Not only about the content itself, but how important it is to get the messaging right and how much I can improve here too (always learning my guyssss!!)

We covered so much that I have to put it here in dot point form:

  • Alcohol and the adolescent brain
  • Binge drinking 
  • Is there a better way to drink or do drugs?
  • Females, the menstrual cycle and alcohol
  • What is the 'danger day'?
  • Male vs. Female and alcohol
  • Portable breathalysers 
  • Why shouldn't you take a drunk person to the bathroom?
  • Key issues in the most recent National Drug Strategy Household Survey
  • Vaping and what we do now
  • What are Zyns? 

Prepare your brains and enjoy everyone!!!!
