We’re living in the age of the Reset. Klaus Schwabb calls it the "Great Reset". But were not talking about Klaus Schwabb or his quote that you will "own nothing and like it".

Although some of the following are great things to try, we're also not talking about a reset by cold plunges, breathwork, ice baths. red light therapy or gratitude journaling, either.

We're talking about the one “reset” that’s actually changing lives, quitting alcohol.

In this episode, Shane dives into why so many high-performing men, business owners, leaders, and entrepreneurs, are walking away from the “work hard, play hard” lifestyle and choosing clarity, peace, and purpose instead.

You’ll hear why Reset Culture is more than just a trend, it’s a movement of men who are tired of feeling burned out, anxious, and disconnected… and ready to build a new kind of success story that doesn’t come with a hangover.

Expect truth, humor, and a few gut punches along the way.
(And probably a joke or two about how we used to think tequila was self-care.)

• Why high-achievers are trading late nights for early mornings

• The surprising link between alcohol, anxiety, and ambition

• How sobriety gives you an unfair advantage in business and life

• The difference between numbing out and leveling up

• Why “peace” is the new “flex”

1. Do a Personal Reset Audit:
   Ask yourself — “Am I using alcohol to escape or to elevate?”
   Be honest. That answer can change your life.

2. Find Your Crew:

Apparently, choosing not to drink now makes you controversial.

In this episode, Shane dives into the cultural weirdness around sobriety — why quitting alcohol freaks people out more than drinking too much, how clear-headed men are suddenly being called “radical,” and what this says about masculinity, culture, and freedom in 2025.

From The Guardian’s recent article “Mocktails for MAGA: Why the US Right Is Turning Sober” to the growing trend of men reclaiming their focus, faith, and families, Shane breaks down why a simple glass of sparkling water can now spark a political debate.

You’ll laugh, shake your head, and probably think twice about why society celebrates dysfunction and ridicules discipline.

Because here’s the truth, sobriety isn’t extreme. It’s clarity. It’s leadership. It’s power.
And in a world that glorifies chaos, staying sober might just be the most rebellious move you can make.

• Don’t let culture define your character — “normal” isn’t always right.

• True masculinity isn’t about how much you can drink, but how much you can carry.

• Staying sober isn’t weakness — it’s the foundation of real freedom and clarity.

Today on That Sober Guy Podcast, we’re joined by a legend in the speaking and performance world, Joel Bauer. This dude has trained some of the most elite speakers, presenters, and marketers on the planet to monetize their life experience and create real influence, both on and offline. If you’ve ever seen someone captivate a room and thought, “How the hell do they do that?” - there’s a good chance Joel’s fingerprints are somewhere in their training.

But here’s where it gets real, Joel’s not just about stage presence and sales. He’s lived through and witnessed the dark side of addiction up close, and he’s got some powerful wisdom for men who know they’ve got that “addictive personality” wiring. Instead of letting it wreck your life, Joel breaks down how to redirect that same intensity into something that actually serves you, your business, your relationships, your health, and your purpose.

And, of course, we have a few laughs along the way, because if you can’t laugh at the insanity of this crazy life, what’s the point?

A couple of key takeaways from today’s episode:

1. Your “addictive” tendencies aren’t a curse, they’re untapped potential when harnessed with the right structure and intention.

2. Influence isn’t about what you sell, it’s about the truth you’re willing to share and the transformation you’ve lived.

If this episode hits home for you, don’t go it alone. Join our free men’s community, The Victory Circle , where high-performing men connect, share wins, and stay accountable on the path to sobriety, strength, and purpose.

Or if you’re ready to go deeper, reach out for 1-on-1 coaching and let’s build a plan to help you quit drinking and get your fire back.

Are men drinking themselves out of masculinity? In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we break down how alcohol quietly strips away the very things men pride themselves on - strength, drive, sex drive, and mental toughness.

From the “beer belly badge of surrender” to the not-so-funny reality of whiskey D, we’ll dive into the science and the everyday impact booze has on your body, brain, and relationships. We’ll also get real about why many men reach for the bottle to feel confident or tough, and how that short-term crutch is often the thing eroding their long-term manhood.

This isn’t about chest-thumping caveman masculinity. It’s about the grit, focus, discipline, and clarity that make men leaders, fathers, husbands, and high performers — and why alcohol is the biggest enemy of all four. Expect some laughs, some uncomfortable truths, and a wake-up call that might just change the way you think about your next drink.

Actionable Takeaways:

1. Ask yourself: Is alcohol fueling my manhood or stealing it? Be brutally honest.
2. Replace one “manhood killer” (nightly drinking) with one “manhood builder” (a workout, journaling, cold shower, or just showing up present with your family).

Every touchdown, home run, and knockout seems to come with a side of beer, or at least a commercial for it. From Budweiser’s billion-dollar deal with the NFL, to tequila pouring all over UFC fight nights, to beer practically funding baseball stadiums, alcohol and sports have become inseparable. But should they be?

In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, Shane takes a look at alcohol advertising in sports. Do leagues like the NFL, MLB, NBA, and UFC owe fans more responsibility when it comes to promoting addictive substances? Why are we okay with tequila logos on jerseys, but we’d never accept Marlboro as the “official cigarette of the Finals”? And is it just hypocrisy to glorify peak performance athletes while cashing checks from companies selling a product that wrecks health and lives?

We’ll explore:

• How alcohol ads target not just adults, but kids and families watching games.

• The normalization of booze as “part of the fan experience.”

• The Big Tobacco playbook—and how alcohol companies are running the same game.

• Whether banning alcohol ads in sports could actually be a good thing.

All with a little humor and sarcasm, because nothing says “family-friendly Sunday football” like pounding tallboys and screaming at the ref who can’t hear you.

Actionable Takeaways:

1. Pay attention during the next game, notice how often alcohol shows up, and what message it’s sending.

2. If you’re in early sobriety, set boundaries, mute commercials, watch with sober friends, or create new game-day rituals.

This week on That Sober Guy Podcast, we’re sitting down with Corey Warren, a guy who proves that sobriety doesn’t have to be boring and that vulnerability is actually a superpower.

Corey’s not out here spitting drug facts or throwing scare tactics at people. Instead, he shares his own messy, real-life journey while breaking down the very real dangers of alcohol, drugs, vaping, and pills. But it doesn’t stop there, Corey also leans into the conversations most people avoid: mental health, peer pressure, and the never-ending battle of knowing your own worth.

With over 200K followers on Instagram (@icoreywarren) , Corey’s creative videos are reaching people across the world who are ready to step away from alcohol and step into freedom. He’s not afraid to laugh at himself, keep it raw, and show you that life on the other side of drinking is not only possible, it’s actually pretty damn fun.

We swap stories, talk about the power of getting honest, and even have a few laughs at the ridiculous things we used to think were “normal” when drinking.

🎯 Takeaways from this episode:

• Why being vulnerable is a strength, not a weakness.

• How to find your identity during early sobriety.

• Practical tools you can use today to build self-worth and live free.

We’ve all been there, head pounding, stomach churning, swearing “never again”, only to do it all over again the next weekend. So why do we keep falling for the same hangover trap?

In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we peel back the curtain on the big lie of hangovers: why we minimize the pain, laugh it off, and even turn it into a cultural joke instead of seeing it for what it really is, a red flag from our body.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

• The science of hangovers in plain English (dehydration, dopamine crash, no REM sleep, body in full recovery mode).

• Why hangovers don’t actually stop us: alcohol amnesia, dopamine hijack, and a culture that glamorizes misery.

• How to spot the moment when hangovers shift from “funny story” to “wake-up call.”

And yes, there will be some laughs along the way. Think: breakfast burritos and bad decisions.

🎯 Actionable Takeaways:

1. Start tracking how often you repeat the “never again” cycle — patterns are powerful.

2. Reframe hangovers as warning labels instead of “badges of honor.”

If you’re tired of ignoring the pain and ready to break the cycle, join our free men’s community The Victory Circle, a place for high-performing men to get real about sobriety, health, and growth. Or if you’re ready to go deeper, reach out today for 1-on-1 coaching and start building the sober life you actually want.

Sobriety isn’t just about putting down the bottle, it’s about picking up a bigger purpose. In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, Shane shares why your story matters, how to break through the “now what?” moment after quitting, and how to use your clarity as a launch pad for creativity, business, and leadership.

We’ll dive into:

• Why sober voices matter in breaking stigma and giving hope

• How to channel your time, energy, and money into purpose-driven work

• Real examples of men who’ve launched businesses, podcasts, and legacies through sobriety

• Why your story doesn’t have to be perfect or dramatic to make an impact

Sobriety isn’t a limitation, it’s leverage. Whether you feel called to write, lead, or build, your sober story has the power to change lives (including your own).

👉 Action Steps from this episode:

1. Write out your story, or write down one area where sobriety has freed up your time, money, or energy.

2. Decide where you can reinvest it this week - creativity, business, family, or leadership.

3. Share your story with one other person. Even a simple conversation can spark change.

And hey, if you want to take this to the next level, Shane will be speaking live on January 15th in Orlando, Florida at the first-ever Amplify Sober Voices Conference, part of Podfest Expo. Come connect with other sober leaders and creators who are making their voices heard.
