Alcohol Original Air Date: August 6, 2006 
Show Category: Addiction Show Description: With "Mel Gibson's" little incident this week being blamed on alcohol (unless you want to get psychological and say it should be blamed on his subconscious), I figured we should have a frank, honest conversation about the stuff for this week's show. Come join the conversation as we look at at alcohol's effects on our lives and steps that can be taken to overcome being addicted to it. Rejoin #1 Alcohol by Brad Paisley

Rejoin #3 Captain Jack by Billy Joel

Rejoin #4 Alcohol by Brad Paisley
I got blamed at your wedding reception for your best man's embarrassing speech…And also for those naked pictures of you at the beach
Rejoin #5 I Got Drunk by Montgomery Gentry
I tried to forget the way that you do me…Yeah I got drunk…
Rejoin #6 Alcohol by Brad Paisley
I can help or make you fall…You've had some of the best times you'll never remember with me…Alcohol
