Meagan and Sarah both enjoy wine and cocktails, but coincidentally we both scaled back our drinking recently and have observations to share. We\u2019re also wary of the pervasive \u201cmommy needs a drink\u201d trope and the way meme culture in general aims for cheap laughs with potentially harmful side-effects. Today\u2019s episode gets into the gray area between carefree happy hour and full-blown addiction, and we talk honestly about the places alcohol and motherhood overlap.
