Is it me or is it getting worse? I'm not talking about a glass of wine or a bottle of beer being championed I'm talking about presenters glorifying getting pissed.
Olivia Colman spouted the very same at the awards this week.
The female presenter on Radio Stoke in the afternoons was still going on today about being completely legless a week last Friday . I quite like her but being proud that her co presenter had downed 12 pints that evening and she took days to recover from the Jack Daniels overload ain't very bright.
Nicky Campbell's another one.
Irresponsible or just clean fun?

I don't think there's any more of it about at the moment, I think it's more a case of a shift in attitude away from binge drinking and an increase in alcoholism awareness that is now causing more people (like us) take notice when these "incidents" occur.

I don't see alcohol as being glamorised but I do think there's a glamorisation of drug culture and gang culture.

All I know is if I catch "The Big Lebowski" flipping through channels on the TV, I seem to get this hankering for a concoction of vodka, Khalua and cream.. Strange this is, I kind of have that hankering right now just thinking about it...

Actually, marketers do not want you to think about your attitude toward alcohol. They want you to accept the popular images they offer—to take for granted that when you drink, you are participating in a world of glamour and fun, where drinking makes you more popular and fun to be around. But you should be smarter than that. If you already have an addiction, here is the article on how to beat alcoholism addictionresource.com/alcohol/treatment/how-to-quit-drinking/

Alcohol is the most dangerous drug in the world.
We live in a hypocritical society.

Alcohol is the most dangerous drug in the world. We live in a hypocritical society. Debatable whether or not its 'the' most dangerous for me, but it's definitely in the top 3. Incredible that other, far less harmful drugs, can carry a jail sentence for possession. We certainly do live in a hypocritical society but it's not surprising given the lies they've been told year after year.

I look forward to the day Radio Stoke presenters talk about being completely off their tits, stoned or tripping the previous night

Alan Brazil is the leader of the pack. Listen to any breakfast show when they are live from a race course and the only topic of conversation is the guiness tent. Look at whats happened to Dean Saunders after hosting the show with him for a few months.
