Let's talk about binge drinking. In excruciating detail. In this video, I answer the question 'what is binge drinking?', tell you why we do it, and explain why it's so damn hard to stop.

This very weird video is asks whether or not alcoholic hallucinations are some sort of spiritual experience. And if they're not, then why do so many people from completely different backgrounds tend to all see the same things?

Buy the Just Crazy Enough To Work audiobook, the story of my descent into alcoholism, read by me: https://www.batcountry.co/product-page/audiobook-just-crazy-enough-to-work-stu-nugent ======= In 1955, Dr. Harris Isbell published a medical paper entitled "An Experimental Study Of The Etiology of Rum Fits and Delirium Tremens."  On the face of it, the report simply described an investigation into alcohol withdrawal. The findings still inform treatment for alcohol addiction today.  But look beneath the surface, and you find a legacy of human experimentation, sinister medical institutions, and CIA money.  Sounds like conspiracy theory nonsense, right? It isn't. And it's very scary. This episode of Bat Country is a bit of a change of pace from the norm, and I'll be returning to the normal, more personal style videos now. But this was so interesting I just HAD to talk about it. As always, good luck out there.

IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED EXPLODING HEAD SYNDROME, PLEASE LEAVE YOUR EXPERIENCE IN THE COMMENTS. What is Exploding Head Syndrome? In this video, we take a look at the history of the research into Exploding Head Syndrome, and some of the theories that try to explain it. I also explain why I think there's a correlation between exploding head syndrome and withdrawal from alcohol, drugs, and medication. Good luck out there.
