This year, another new study was released on the potentially harmful effects of alcohol consumption, encouraging people to rethink their drinking habits. Well, one marketeer (you guess which one!) was having none of it. As the months rolled on and debates continued on the impact of alcohol on the human body, experts have come out yet again undecided. Meanwhile, in social circles, people have been latching on to either side of the debate with either a strong, "I told you so!" or "I simply can't believe it!". This ongoing back-and-forth has prompted Sean and Lindsay, co-hosts of The Two Marketeers podcast, to dedicate this episode to data. Sean and Lindsay explore how people take media headlines and quoted statistics as gospel without doing much further research to understand the context of the information they are seeing. They discuss why it is essential to go beyond the headlines and do more research to challenge our own biases and form our own opinions. Join Sean and Lindsay for this passionate episode, with a drink in hand or not, and walk away with the idea that we shouldn't straight up believe everything we read and, more so, that we each should challenge everything we think. Cheers, Marketeers! For reference: World Health Organization Study, "No level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health"
