02 Jun 2025
They told us the desert wouldn’t drink. That tradition would hold. That some cultures were sacred.

From secret stores to tourist resorts, this isn’t about freedom. It’s about profit. And the cost is culture. I’ll share a story from the Grand Canyon that perfectly exposes this myth—and remind you why your joy doesn’t need a cork in it. Listen in if you’ve ever… – Equated alcohol with celebration – Believed “progress” means wine lists and whiskey lounges – Wondered why even dry nations are selling out Living a SELF-led life, AFAF, means saying no to that lie—even when the world calls it luxury.
