Bikini Bakesale: A Year-End Chat on Life, Sobriety, and Everything in Between
I think everybody gets to kind of curate their own public facing existence, and it just feels really disconnected to me.
Ever feel like your life is a series of tangents? Well, you're not alone. In the 190th episode of 'Since Right Now', hosts Jeff, Matt, and Chris wrap up the year with a lively mix of reflections and rambles that are as entertaining as they are insightful. Titled 'Bikini Bakesale', this episode dives into everything from the quirks of note-taking during recovery meetings to the curated world of social media.
Jeff kicks things off by sharing a blast from his past—a notebook filled with transcriptions from his early sobriety days. It's a nostalgic trip that sparks a discussion on how much has changed and how much has stayed the same. Chris brings in some laughs and wisdom with his tales from the Creative Reaction Lab in St. Louis and hints at future travel plans.
Meanwhile, Matt and Jeff swap holiday tips and resolutions for the new year, offering practical advice and humorous anecdotes. The trio also touch on the ever-relevant topic of social media, discussing how we all present our 'best selves' online while grappling with real-life challenges. With their trademark blend of humor and honesty, Jeff, Matt, and Chris make this episode a must-listen for anyone navigating the ups and downs of sobriety and life.
So grab your favorite non-alcoholic beverage and tune in for a chat that's as comforting as it is thought-provoking.
