In this special announcement episode, I'm reaching out to you, my wonderful Low No Nation, as we approach a major milestone - episode 100 of the podcast!

After nearly two years of bringing you conversations about the world of low, no and light drinks, I'm inviting you to be part of this celebration. Whether you've been listening since day one or just discovered us recently, I'd love to hear your voice - share a favourite moment, a quote that resonated, a guest who changed your perspective, or simply where you are on your journey to a life less intoxicated. You can even answer the BBQ-Question and tell me some of your favourite sunny-day-tipples.

Recording a message is simple - just visit lownodrinkermagazine.com/message before 18th June, and share a brief message to be played on the air.

And you'll even be entered into a draw for a thoughtful thank you gift. This podcast has always been about the community we're building together, and I can't think of a better way to mark this milestone than by hearing from you!

This week, I’m joined by Lou Pollitt from Lucky Saint, the UK’s best-known alcohol-free beer.

We talk about how the brand’s evolved since launching back in 2018, why they stuck so firmly to perfecting just one lager for so long, and how brewing to the German Rheinheitsgebot purity law plays into that commitment to quality.

Lou also shares some insight into their newest release —a Lemon Lager, and their less new IPA, plus we chat about the growing presence of alcohol-free options in workplaces, what it really means to build a community around a brand, and how Lucky Saint’s pub and running club are helping do just that.

And if you love a stat as much as Lou & I do: Lucky Saint is available on draught in over 1,000 pubs in the UK!

Today, I’m exploring how years of conditioning led me to make unfair assumptions about my hosts, who were actually on their own mindful drinking journey, at a recent kids’ birthday party. This experience prompted me to question the wider assumptions we all make - about venues, other people's perceptions, and even ourselves and the habitual thoughts and behaviours that dictate our actions when navigating social drinking situations.
