One of the things we find fascinating is that in this space, unlike so many others in society, it's the voices of women that you're most likely to hear. Whether you read quit lit, listen to podcasts or join online communities like club soda. You'll find women taking the lead building happy and healthy lives and putting alcohol in its place. But the truth is, change is for everyone, men included. So in this episode of the Club Soda Podcast, we wanted to amplify the voices of some men who've changed their drinking back at this summer's global mindful drinking festival.We got together two panels, one in the UK and the other in Australia to talk about men drinking mindfully, both discussions opened with a chance for these guys to share their stories about how they've changed their drinking, whether they'd quit or cut down and whether they were new beers are old hands. We think there's something to learn from all of them.Men Drinking Mindfully Aussie EditionHosted by Jason Quin from ETCH Sparkling with, ex-DJ now GP James Stewart and Sonny Aplin from NA Guys and Byrdi’s Luke Whearty.
