Call It What It Is

We used to Pre-Game. Now We Play Mahjong…

Episode Description from the Publisher

54% of Americans drank less alcohol in 2025 — the steepest drop ever recorded — and Jess and Camilla have thoughts. They get into the “sober curious” movement, whether GLP-1s are quietly killing happy hour, and why Gen Z skipped the drinking-culture memo entirely. Camilla spills on her 30 days alcohol-free (spoiler: her jawline has opinions), Jess shares that her Dry January pushed it’s way past the first month of the year, and then it somehow it all spirals into a full-blown mahjong obsession. Hangxiety, red carpet horror stories, and a woman named Beth who may be quietly teaching all of Los Angeles to play — this one has range.
