Drunk-ish with Stefanie Wilder-Taylor is the podcast for anyone who’s ever sworn off alcohol… and then immediately wondered what the hell to do next. Hosted by author, humorist, and former enthusiastic drinker Stefanie Wilder-Taylor, Drunk-ish serves up brutally honest (and often hilarious) one-on-one conversations with people navigating the wild ride of sobriety. Some are famous, some are just your average legends, but all have stories about quitting drinking — the good, the bad, and the completely unhinged. No preachy vibes, no perfection required — just real talk about what it’s like to stop drinking without becoming a total bore.

9 DEC 2025 · If you’ve ever wondered whether “drinking is just part of my personality” is a solid life plan, this episode is for you. I’m joined by the hilarious and brutally honest Sean Daniels, a theater director who managed to get fired from his dream job for day drinking, then turned his mess into an Off-Broadway play and a whole nonprofit, the Recovery Arts Project. We talk relapse (so much more common than people admit), brain chemistry, secret Mormon drinking, and why nobody brings you a casserole when you go to rehab. Come for the drunk stories, stay for the hope.

2 DEC 2025 · If you’ve ever Googled “Am I an alcoholic?” at midnight (hi, welcome), you’re going to love this week’s conversation with the author of The Sober Diaries, Clare Pooley. We get into her days as “Sober Mummy,” why she once hid red wine in a coffee mug, the absolute hellscape of dancing in heels sober, and how quitting drinking somehow also led both of us straight into the arms of sugar. Clare’s stories are sharp, hilarious, and painfully relatable. Grab your fancy sneakers and join us.
Clare can be found at her website ClarePooley.com and you can find her books everywhere.

25 NOV 2025 · If you’ve ever taken an “Am I an alcoholic?” quiz and argued with every single question… you’re going to love this one. Writer and mom of two Dana Bowman joins me to talk about growing up with a “dry drunk” dad, becoming the straight-A, teacher-of-the-year perfectionist, and then secretly drinking her face off on the couch. We laugh about wine-mom culture, hiding bottles in boots, and that first meeting where a guy with a spiderweb head tattoo basically saved her life. We also hit relapse, menopause, sugar binges, and her new book on sober menopause.

18 NOV 2025 · This week I sit down with Lisa Smith — author of Girl Walks Out of a Bar and co-host of Sober Living. Lisa and I get into everything from her New York lawyer days (including the part where she fully expected to die at 40) to the weekend routines she hid behind while her drinking spiraled. We talk about early sobriety, inpatient treatment, why some friendships shift and others surprise you, and the strange magic of a recovery community that somehow knows all your secrets before you tell them.

11 NOV 2025 · This is the episode so nice I'm airing it twice!
Comedian and longtime podcaster Greg Fitzsimmons joins me for a candid, hilarious, and deeply honest conversation about his decades-long journey without alcohol—and why he never calls himself “sober.”
From getting drunk behind the bleachers at 13 to quitting after bombing a stand-up set in Boston, Greg opens up about addiction in his Irish Catholic family, dealing with anger, parenting in the age of weed vapes, and how comedy became his salvation. He also talks about his use of mushrooms for healing, his one-night relapse, and why AA wasn’t the right fit for him—even if its ideas stuck.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like they didn’t fit into the “sober” box but knew they needed to make a change.

4 NOV 2025 · I’m joined by the brilliant and hilarious Anna David, who’s (almost) at 25 years sober and has the receipts. We get into the infamous “Fix” headline fiasco, why community laughter can be medicine, and how she accidentally checked into the other Promises—think broken hoop, not Malibu tennis courts. Anna talks getting sober at 30, the power of 12-step, and how EMDR rewired her life. We also compare notes on early motherhood being… let’s say “not a spa day,” and celebrate her new gig co-hosting Sober Living and running Legacy Launchpad Publishing.

28 OCT 2025 · In this conversation with Rosebud Baker, we trace a line from grief to grace: a political-family childhood near D.C., the loss of her little sister, finding alcohol, and then finding a room where people spoke her language. We talk about the slow work of sitting with feelings, Al-Anon, the beginnings of stand-up and writing, sobriety since 2006, pregnancy loss, IVF, becoming a mom, and the memoir she’s written along the way, Fully Baked. It’s a hopeful map for anyone who needs community, laughter, and permission to start again.

21 OCT 2025 · This week I sit down with Jonathan Todd Schwartz, who went from daily sports bets and a secret coke spiral to embezzeling money from his high profile musician clients like Alanis Morissette. We talk parenting while living a double life, the polygraph that blew everything up, and how it all changed. It's riveting from start to finish.

14 OCT 2025 · This week on Drunk-ish, I sit down with my friend Kate Anthony—author, divorce coach, and host of The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast. Kate opens up about how playdates with wine turned into nightly drinking, the shame spirals at 3am (“Holy fuck, I can’t believe I drove” ), and the moment she realized alcohol was the problem, not her. We talk parenting, hitting that “I’m done” wall, what finally helped her quit, and how sobriety gave her the love, career, and life she never thought possible. Funny, heartfelt, and completely relatable, this conversation is one you don’t want to miss.

7 OCT 2025 · This week on Drunk-ish I sit down with Brenda Wilhelmson, author of Diary of an Alcoholic Housewife. Brenda opens up about juggling motherhood, her years of trying to “look perfect on the outside” while feeling wrecked on the inside, and the rocky starts that came before lasting sobriety. We talk about vodka martinis with dissertation-writing cousins, accidentally lighting her hair on fire at an office Christmas party, and the judgment moms face when they admit they’re struggling. Brenda shares how she finally found recovery, what helped her stick with it, and how her life has changed today.
