Imagine a world where the support you need is just a click away. In this episode of Rebellion Dogs Radio, host Joe C teams up with David G, the voice behind Here's Tom with the Weather podcast, to explore whether Zoom meetings have revolutionized Peer2Peer support for those battling alcohol and substance use disorders. The conversation kicks off with a look at the original aim of Alcoholics Anonymous—bringing comfort to those in need, even when face-to-face meetings aren't possible.
But with the rise of online recovery meetings, are we seeing a new frontier in mutual aid? David G shares insights from his article on how the pandemic-driven shift to Zoom AA meetings has changed the landscape of recovery. They discuss the benefits of virtual meetings, such as accessibility and inclusivity, and ponder if these digital gatherings might offer more connection than traditional methods.
The episode dives into how technology, including social media, plays a role in modern recovery and the potential limitations of in-person meetings. Throughout their chat, Joe and David touch on themes of tolerance, spiritual growth, and the essential elements that help people stay sober. This episode is packed with thoughtful discussion and real-world insights, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of addiction recovery.
