Not only were his eyes clear, they were on my eyes, which he could never, ever do. So he had a mini experience of just being bumped by his buddy.
What makes 'Bill's Story' such a cornerstone of the Big Book? In this episode, the hosts and guests take a deep dive into pages 7-11, exploring the intricate details of Bill's journey. They dissect the concept of the 'insanity of the first drink', shedding light on how that first sip can spiral into a cycle of addiction.
