About this episode
It’s the episode you’ve all been waiting for…again!
In this very special instalment of Sober Awkward, we sit down with none other than superstar DJ Norman Cook, aka Fatboy Slim.
Recorded backstage at his Brisbane gig, just before he stepped out in front of thousands of fans, Norman opens up about his 14-year sobriety journey, the early days of The Big Beat Boutique, and that pivotal moment—when bringing Fatboy Slim home after a night out made him realise it was time to get help.
Vic was lucky enough to see him live again just last night, and even though she was nervous, Norman was—as always—warm, open and welcoming. This conversation is packed with such wisdom, proof that you can still party hard, dance like mad, and live loud… without being wasted.
Whether you’re sober curious or 10 years in, this is one for the books. Huge love and thanks to Norman, Al and Andy Mac for making it all happen.
Let’s do it—press play and get inspired by one of the coolest sober legends around.
