Two Percent with Michael Easter · #5: What Science Says About Alcohol & Social Media | Taylor Lorenz & Dean Stattmann · 23 Apr 2026 podcast

And, you know, not like claiming or having the illusion that this is like a good thing for my health, but I just felt that ultimately, net-net, it actually was positive when I factored everything in.

And I think that's, you know, maybe just something good to consider in wellness generally, that you don't have to do everything.

And it's important to, you know, manage your priorities as well and still have fun because otherwise, what's the point?

Yeah, yeah, I couldn't agree more.

And something that I also find myself keeping in mind is like wellness is a big business right now.

You know, like you see categories just being like absolutely blown up by like one product takes off and now you've got like seven competitors.

You're seeing brands that did one thing really well now coming out with their line extensions and like the version 2.0 and the pro and like whatever.

And so I think part of it is also just remembering that like this is a business and people are trying to sell you things.

Yeah.

Yeah, absolutely.

And there's actually another piece that I wrote recently, also for GQ, which kind of touches on something very similar, which is basically it was looking at the data.

And this was very good data.

This is from a decades-long study that's been going on.

And they were sort of looking at what is a...

more effective lever to pull when it comes to longevity?

Is it, um, starting to work out or is it stopping drinking?

And overwhelmingly it's, it's fitness.

You know, if you're going to change one thing, like if you're a relatively, if you're a sedentary person, um, that's, that's drinking and again, drinking like within sort of the bounds of, of common sense.

Um,

you're going to do a lot more for your longevity and your health span by upping your activity than you will by reducing or stopping alcohol consumption.
