I'm an alcoholic, but thanks. Care to eschew your sarcasm and have a discussion about why we should use how OP's body responds to alcohol as the primary reason to cast this entire article (that came with cited studies) as "bullshit"? Because that's all my point was.
well then no beer for you - I understood wheel's point as mostly hinting at alcohol serving a purpose as a social lubricant. and that's pretty established and well-observable. doesn't form an imperative, though. to call "BS" on the podcast's content is of course a bit over the top.
