Marc Giró speaks openly about his addiction to alcohol.

Among all his words, there was one phrase that resonated especially: “Let’s toast with water.” More than a phrase, it is an invitation to rethink our relationship with alcohol and to change a culture that often pressures drinking, as if not doing so needed an explanation.

That’s what our video podcast Toasting with water is about: questioning a narrative that rewards consumption and points out those who decide not to drink.
