210: Euphoric Recall: Why Your Brain Romanticizes Alcohol

Ever randomly remember the fun parts of drinking and conveniently forget the hangxiety, bad sleep, weird texts, puffy face and entire next day being a wash? That’s euphoric recall. In this episode, we’re talking about why our brains romanticize alcohol, why the negative stuff fades faster than we think, and how to stop letting the highlight reel trick us.
