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 29 - Adriana Cavallo
Adriana, is the voice behind The Adge of Sobriety. She started drinking when she was 15, and by 30, Adriana had almost died from liver failure and was diagnosed with cirrhosis. Even that wasn’t enough for her to stop. She kept struggling on and off for another 8 years, trying to manage it on her own. It wasn’t until Adriana finally checked herself into detox and rehab that things started to really shift.
Now, at 6 months sober and for the first time in her life, she actually feels like she is living. Changing careers, changing her people, places, and things in order to give herself a real shot at sobriety. Adriana already knows the best is yet to come.
