AUDIO – EASY DOES IT –
May 26, 2026 – That story is in her new book, Drink Your Way Sober: The Science-Based Method to Break Free from Alcohol. And she joins us from On Point station Blue Ridge Public Radio in Asheville, North Carolina. Katie Herzog is a journalist and creator and co-host of the podcast Blocked and Reported, which calls itself a podcast that, quote: “Scours the internet for its craziest, silliest, most sociopathic content. Part of an obsessive and ill-conceived attempt to extract kernels of meaning and humanity from a landscape of endless raging dumpster fires.”
So yeah, it’s the perfect vehicle for a sharp, smart, funny woman. But if you ask Katie when she thinks she was the most fun, she might say that period of her life span some 20 years when she was drinking. Fun, maybe for others, self-destructive for her. In the United States, 30 million adults suffer from alcohol use disorder or AUD.
