10-4 Good Buddy! This week, Rich & Ben explore the real consequences of drinking & the positive consequences that can come with sobriety, highlighting how the impact goes far beyond the obvious. From health & finances to the ripple effect on family & friends. Whilst reminding us that we’re stronger than we sometimes realise.

Actor & Icon, Dick Van Dyke is “in the frame”, 100 & sober since 1972. Just wow.

Ben is saved by a portaloo, just don’t ask him about cars, unless you want to play Give Us A Clue. Rich visits Gotham City, but is he Batman or Bananaman?!

And are the Equestrian events their route to the Olympics?! I mean, they’re getting on a bit.

Hola! In this week’s episode, Brad Pitt’s decision to return to drinking after seven years of sobriety opens up a really important conversation for Rich & Ben about moderation, recovery & choice.

They explore whether moderate drinking is ever safe after sobriety, the potential impact on family & friends, the warning signs to be aware of & whether moderation can actually be harder than abstinence. Is staying sober the simpler option - or is everyone’s recovery journey different?

Rich enjoys a sober 1st Night in the ABBA! musical, MAMMA MIA! And the local buzzards join his new chums, the seagulls for the after party. Ben has a Fosters flashback & Japanese Knotweed-gate continues.

Rapper & Producer, Eminem is “in the frame” & and do Rich & Ben have what it takes to compete at the 2028 Olympics?!

Zero judgement, zero hangovers. Rich & Ben, The Sober Men: The Podcast.

Hola! This week, Rich & Ben explore how lost self-respect isn’t rebuilt overnight: it comes from showing up for yourself, one day at a time, trusting the process and slowly realising you can rely on yourself again. And how rebuilding trust in yourself through small promises kept & healthy boundaries in sobriety can give you back that happy glow.

Rich is having Seagull issues & is mourning Bernard Matthews’ Turkey Drummers & Ben (or is it Dolph Lundgren?!) has a conversation with himself in Aldi.

Super Model, Naomi Campbell is “in the frame” & the podcast celebrates 5,000 downloads: thank you to The Sober Men community. The BEST.

Rich & Ben, The Sober Men. Making sobriety that little bit easier.
