After Hours with Jimmy Thistle
Join Jimmy Thistle for After Hours — the brutally honest, funny and heartwarming podcast that dives deep into alcohol, addiction, and recovery.
Each week, Jimmy sits down with real people who’ve faced the highs, lows, and hangovers of drinking culture. Through unfiltered conversation, laughter, and raw honesty, they explore what happens when we start questioning our relationship with alcohol — and what life looks like on the other side.
Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, or just wondering if alcohol’s got too much of a grip, this show is for you. Expect real stories, a few laughs, and plenty of lightbulb moments from people who’ve been there.
Recorded in the UK and Isle of Man but shared worldwide, After Hours is here to prove that recovery can be real, relatable, and even a little bit funny.

After Hours with Jimmy Thistle
Episode 43 - Tom MacLeod
Tom is a Toronto based filmmaker. After decades of daily drinking, he finally put the bottle down
in late 2022. With a rigorous recovery program, he spends much of his time helping others get
and stay sober. In early 2025 he launched Practically Sober, a video series aimed at helping
people navigate early recovery.
