I'm Vic, an author and oversharing ex-party animal who somehow survived the 90s.

And I'm Ulrika, broadcaster, writer, and someone who's lived a bit of a life.

On each episode, we'll open up a shame shed of humiliating drinking stories, investigate our own dysfunctional dealings with booze and share what it's really like navigating this alcohol-drenched world one fizzy water at a time.

We'll get stuck into the good, the bad and the painfully cringey bits of alcohol and the wonders of sobriety with curiosity, honesty and probably a few wobbles along the way.

All those years I'd spent trying to moderate, I kept focusing on what I intended to do before I drank, rather than what I repeatedly did once I started drinking.

Those were often two completely different people.

So, yeah, welcome to Thursday, the awkward bits where I fly solo and have a little rummage around whatever Ulrika and I talked about on Monday.

So, of course, this week it was moderation.

He's been playing it fast and loose with the dickie.

They've wheeled out Ulrika Johnson to bask in the deflected limelight.

She's on the phone waiting for the call.

You can imagine just going, I'm back! It was reported, apparently, that Sven, in order to show off to Ulrika, said that he could beat up Fergie.
