The week's are flying & it's Episode 3 already. Rich & Ben discuss the impact of sobriety on their social lives & how they enjoy social events alcohol-free.

The Sober Men share the joy of being authentic without that beer in your hand in social situations. Plus some coping strategies for dealing with peer pressure & tips for maintaining a fulfilling social life without alcohol. And their love of an evening at home on the sofa, with Match of the Day or Netflix on the gogglebox. Bliss.

Actor, Samuel L Jackson is “in the frame’ this week, he’s 34 years sober, wow.

Has Ben returned from a 10 day all inclusive Caribbean cruise & Rich is King of the Shackets.

If it’s good enough for Ant & Dec, it’s good enough for Rich & Ben.

Two mates. One Podcast. Zero hangovers. Boom!

Rich & Ben are back for episode 2 & this week they’re flying without wings.

The Sober Men, or as Ben says, the podcasting Westlife, continue to share the positive impacts of living a sober life.

They dive into the stages of denial plus the honesty & accountability needed entering early sobriety & beyond.

It’s a big week for Rich, as he celebrates 5 years of sobriety, boom! And how being able to recognise & admit the need to make change, is so important.

Rich & Ben share the mental clarity & energy they now enjoy & how support networks are vital for sustained sobriety.

Ben’s growing his hair; Rich think’s he more Patrick Swayze than Barry Gibb. And Ben tells Rich why the actor, Anthony Hopkins is a big sober inspiration & the subject of this week’s “Who’s in the Frame?”

Two mates. One Podcast. Zero hangovers. Let's go!

Welcome to the brand new podcast, Rich & Ben, The Sober Men.

In this episode, Rich & Ben share their route to sobriety & the challenges & triumphs of living a sober life as a middle-aged guy.

Just don't mention the aches & the pains. And when did a body warmer become a gilet?

From the impact of addiction & bottles of red after singing ABBA! to clarity, productivity & finding joy in life's simple moments.

And how accepting their struggles with alcohol & substances, was the first step to change.

Hop on board for gratitude, connection & maybe, just a cheeky chuckle.

Ben thinks he's Bruce Forsyth & should Rich be Casualty's new Hot Doc?
