In this episode of Last Drinks Maz pulls apart the history of drinking in Australia, we go right back to the First Fleet and, wait, how much rum did they put on that ship? With the hope to help people understand why Australia has such a problem with alcohol in 2022, sometimes the history books are where we can find the 'why' and when we know why, we can re-write the narrative. Plus the patchwork of drinking behaviors and demographics that are current in Australia.
