Ever wondered where alcohol or drugs originated from? Or how they affect your brain or body? Or even the negative impacts alcohol or drugs has on families?

With interviews from professionals from the alcohol and drug field and people who have their own experiences of alcohol or drugs themselves, That Alcohol and Drug Podcast delves into topics that are sometimes hard to talk about. This podcast will give you some insight into the conversations that take place within Better Lives services, teach you some new facts and de-bunk some myths.
