In this thought-provoking interview series from the RSA, Matthew Taylor, puts a range of leading thinkers on the spot - from writers to business leaders, politicians to journalists - by asking for big ideas to help build effective bridges to our new future.
Adrian Chiles once put away 100 units of alcohol a week. The recommended amount is 14. But Adrian never considered himself an alcoholic, just someone who enjoyed drinking a bit too much. But after a warning from his doctor, and now well in to his 50s, Adrian decided it was time to address his relationship with the booze. But he didn't want to stop drinking entirely. Instead, he decided to embark on a journey to become a 'good' drinker, one who can enjoy alcohol in moderation. The writer and broadcaster joins Matthew to reveal how it changed who he is and the way he lives his life.
Adrian Chiles is a writer, journalist and broadcaster. His new book is The Good Drinker.
