That's a Wrap: The Season One Finale

It started because people kept pitching to be on a podcast that didn't exist — so Alysse and Tamar built one. Now, 50+ episodes later, they're closing out Season One with a look back at the wildest moments, the biggest lessons, and a tease of what's coming in Season Two that's going to change the game.

Alysse Bryson and Tamar Routly (aka T Booj) celebrate turning 50, recap their favorite Season One moments — from the Tchotchke Showdown to dressing up as aliens — and get real about the behind-the-scenes hustle of running a podcast with a global team of 38 contributors. Plus: the Sober Curator Rolodex, the Amplify Sober Voices event, a secret Spring launch, and why sobriety means you actually DO the things you dream about.

Sober Shot 

"That's what happens when you live a sober lifestyle. You don't just talk about doing shit. You actually end up going and doing the things you've dreamed about." — Alysse Bryson
