The Truth About 'Drink Responsibly'—What the Alcohol Industry Doesn't Want You to Know / EP 79
Is “Drink Responsibly” Just a Marketing Scam?
What if the phrase “drink responsibly” isn’t about safety—but about shifting blame? In this eye-opening episode of the Sober & Lit Podcast, Ruby and Susan peel back the glossy layers of alcohol marketing to reveal what’s really behind that familiar tagline. Why does the alcohol industry promote moderation while knowing there’s no safe level of alcohol, according to the World Health Organization? Who benefits when drinking is glamorized and normalized in everything from college ads to Christmas dinner?
With Ruby’s 20 years inside the wine business, and both hosts’ experience helping women break free from drinking, this conversation dives into media manipulation, coping culture, and the myth of moderation. They explore how alcohol ads target us young, how “responsibility” gets weaponized, and how the sober curious movement is finally flipping the narrative.
If you're ready to challenge the status quo, rethink your relationship with drinking, and embrace an alcohol-free lifestyle that’s vibrant, joyful, and empowered—this one’s for you.
P.S. You may have noticed we changed the name of our podcast to Sober & Lit.
It’s still us — Ruby and Susan — showing up each week to share real talk for women exploring alcohol-free living in all its messy, magical, and empowering glory. The only thing that’s changing is the name. Everything else — the stories, the insights, the laughs, and the support — is staying exactly the same!
