Author: Conversations with people from all walks of life. August 7, 2025 Duration: 1:27:40
Katie Herzog, co-host of the Blocked & Reported podcast, returns to Walk-Ins Welcome to discuss her new book Drink Your Way Sober. She and Bridget have a frank conversation about alcoholism, the steps you take to hide it from your loved ones, Katie's realization that it would kill her, and how Naltrexone helped her drink her way sober and banished the desire to drink, something she'd never experienced before.

There’s a certain kind of honesty that only comes from a good conversation, the kind where people stop performing and start talking. That’s the space Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy occupies each week. Host Bridget Phetasy brings a deep appreciation for grit and raw authenticity to every discussion, whether she’s unpacking the beautiful failures and frightening successes from her own life or sitting down with a guest from a completely different world. You won’t find formal interviews here; instead, you’ll hear genuine, meandering conversations with real people about the real struggle-the messy, complicated, and often hilarious work of being human. This podcast operates on the belief that we can laugh in pain and cry in joy, but the true mistake is hiding from the full spectrum of experience. By embracing all of it-the doubt, the triumph, the absurdity-these talks celebrate the shared threads in our stories. It’s a blend of society, culture, and commentary, often funny, always candid, that reminds you you’re not alone in the chaos. Tune in for a podcast that feels like a long talk with a brutally honest friend who helps you make sense of it all.
