Sober Curious, Mindful & Alcohol-Free Drinkers Podcast: Low No Drinker
The Low No Drinker Podcast is the place to come and meet the people, places and brands leading the low, no and light alcohol revolution! It’s your introduction to a life less intoxicated with no judgment, no pressure and no expectation.
Get closer to the people behind the drinks that make it possible for you to live a life less intoxicated, whether that’s for a night, a week, a month, a year or a lifetime, and the industry experts bringing it all to your door.
Find out what motivates them, what their own journey was like and why you should try their amazing drinks.
Then, in our second weekly episode, it's time to dive into the hows and whys of low, no and light drinks, drinkers and drinking.
In these solo episodes, I help you answer questions like:
- Why do alcohol-free drinks cost the same as full-strength ones when they don't have any booze?
- Why can't I find a non-alcoholic red wine that I like?
- What the heck is ABV anyway?
Join me, Denise Hamilton-Mace, the founder and editor of Low No Drinker Magazine, the leading GLOBAL magazine for mindful and sober curious drinkers, as I help you find, understand and enjoy the drinks that allow us all to live a life less intoxicated.

Whether you have ever found yourself shouting yes, denise, absolutely at me whilst listening to this podcast, or, on the flip side, you've completely disagreed with something that I had to say. I want to tell you how you can share those thoughts with me and help me to mark a huge milestone as I gear up for episode 100 of the Low no Drinker podcast. Wow, hello, hello and welcome to this week's conversation on the Low no Drinker podcast, the only twice-weekly podcast helping you find, understand and enjoy the world of low, no and light drinks, drinkers and drinking. My name, as you'll know by now, is Denise Hamilton-Mace and I'm the founder, editor and host of All Things Low no Drinker, so it's not a full solo episode from me. This week we're not doing a deep dive into a topic because I would like to ask for your help with something exciting. As I just mentioned in the introduction, we are coming up to episode 100, which is slightly surreal to say. If you'd have told me in the early days when I first started, that nearly two years in, I'd be reaching episode 100 with a growing community of Lono drinkers around the world, I'm not sure I would have believed you, particularly considering that only a few weeks into the podcast the first time around. I had to step away from it because I wasn't sure if it was something that I could actually deliver. But here we are now and it's wonderful, and it is entirely down to you for listening, for sharing, for sending kind messages and generally making it all worthwhile. Podcasting is lonely and it's hard to always know if what you're doing is making an impact, if it's helping people, if they're enjoying it. So when I do get to hear from you, it really does make a difference, and that is why, for the big 100, I want to do something a little bit different and open the mic up to you. I would love to hear from you whether you've been here since the very beginning or you've just stumbled across a podcast in the last week or so for the first time. Your voice really matters and it deserves to be part of this milestone episode. So I'm inviting you to send me in a voice message.
Speaker 1:It could be a favorite moment from the show, maybe when I dropped Rob Fink's beer on the floor behind me halfway through the interview and it fizzed up everywhere and I was covered in milk stouts for the entire show. It could be a quote from the show. We've had some controversial guests with some quite outlandish opinion, even from people who work in the low-no industry and have called it boring. It could be a guest that made you think differently. It could be somebody who really enticed you to go and try their drink and you absolutely loved it. It could be a guest that made you think differently. It could be somebody who really enticed you to go and try their drink and you absolutely loved it. It could be a solo episode that really made you rethink the way that you look at these drinks or your experiences with them. Maybe it's a question that you'd like me to tackle in a future episode. Or maybe you just want to say hi and share where you are on your journey to a life less intoxicated. You could even send in your top picks for my famous barbecue question and tell me what low, no and light drinks you'd be enjoying on a sunny day, barbecue day, with your friends and family.
Speaker 1:Whatever it is, I really would love to hear it and you don't need to overthink it. Just grab your phone, speak from the heart. That'd be perfect. You don't need to script it or polish it or make it sound fancy, as you'll have heard in this episode and many others. I often fluff my words. We are all human. We make mistakes. That's fine. We're not worried about that. I just want to hear from you and I'd like to hear your voice, and I know that this might sound like I just want you to send in messages to say how wonderful I am. I mean, who doesn't want to hear that? But that is not what it's about. This podcast has always been about Lono Nation. It's about the people, it's about the journey, it's about the industry. It's about flavors and experiences and lifestyles and the drinks that make it all possible. So I would love to hear from you if you have a comment or a question on any of the things that I've just mentioned, or something completely different.
Speaker 1:So how can you send your message? Well, I've made it as easy as possible. First thing you need to do is go to the website and go to low no drinker magazinecom forward slash message. That's low L O W N O drinker magazinecom forward slash message. There there'll be nothing else on the page apart from a button that says start recording. So you're going to hit that button and start record it.
Speaker 1:Say your piece, hit send and that's it done. You don't need to log in. You don't need to sign up. I don't need to know your mother's maiden name or your shoe size or anything like that. No email addresses. It's just a chance for you to send me your messages. I will then include as many as I can on the 100th episode. Now, that episode is currently scheduled to air in late June, meaning that you have got until Wednesday, the 18th of June, to send your message in, because obviously I'll need a few days to go through them all and do the editing and make sure that I've got everything that I need to be able to respond to you.
Speaker 1:So Wednesday, the 18th of June, send me your message by going to lonodrinkermagazinecom. Forward slash message and, of course, to make it even easier, I will leave a link to that for you in the show notes as a little thank you. Everyone who does send a message in will go into a drawer for a small but thoughtful gift from me. It might be something to drink, something to read, something to relax with. It'll all depend on where you are in the world and where you are with your low-no or light journey to a life less intoxicated. Wherever it is, I will find something that fits. So when you do leave your message, make sure that you leave me your name and a way to get in contact with you. Now, of course, if you'd rather your message be aired anonymously, then just let me know that as well. I want you to be as comfortable as possible. You know me. It's all about making you feel as confident and comfortable about your choices and actions around low note and light drinks.
Speaker 1:Honestly, this milestone has made me reflect quite a bit. We've had some brilliant guests on the show, some amazing drinks, some great conversation. I'm super proud of everything that I've achieved with you up until this point. In episode 100, I will share more about the plans that I have for the future, because there are loads of them, but this space is changing fast. So your voice, your feedback, your questions all help to shape what comes next.
Speaker 1:So if the podcast has meant anything to you along the way, even in a small way, I would be super duper chuffed if you would just take a minute to submit a recording. It's not just about celebrating 100 episodes. It's about recognizing all the little steps that we've taken together along the way. So head to lonodrinkermagazinecom, forward slash message and share your message with me for episode 100. Next week we'll be back to your regularly scheduled programming, where I'll be sharing an interview that I recorded recently with America's sober sweetheart Laura Silverman of Zero Proof Nation. But for now, head to lonodrinkermagazinecom, forward slash message, send in a little something and I will see you in episode 100. But until then, cheers to a life less intoxicated.
