ABOUT THIS EPISODE

William Porter is the author of Alcohol Explained, a book that’s helped thousands rethink their relationship with drinking by breaking down how alcohol really affects our brains and bodies in straightforward, no-nonsense terms. He drank for over 25 years before quitting for good in 2014, and now uses his own experience plus deep curiosity about the science of addiction to support others on their sobriety journeys. William’s insights are practical, relatable, and rooted in lived experience — which made our conversation today both eye-opening and a lot of fun.
