Welcome back to Well, That’s Awkward — the podcast where we say the things you’re probably thinking… but usually only after a glass of wine or two.

In this episode, Rachel Branson and Susan Osman return to Whatley Manor — the place where their friendship first began — and, fittingly, they’re sipping mocktails while talking honestly about alcohol, identity, and the stories we attach to drinking. From how alcohol shows up in our friendships and family dynamics to the quieter questions about health, energy, sleep and even our skin, this is a conversation many of us have internally but rarely out loud.

Together, they explore the moment midlife brings: when you start wondering whether drinking is still serving you, or whether it’s become habit, politeness, or social default. There’s no judgement here — just curiosity, reflection and a few awkward truths along the way.

Whether you’re sober-curious, cutting back, rethinking your relationship with alcohol, or simply interested in a more conscious approach to wellbeing, this episode invites you to pause, reflect and maybe look a little differently at what’s in your glass.

Stay tuned — new episodes every week.

It’s midlife, unfiltered — with a side of laughter, mocktails, and mild oversharing.
