A lot of people have recovered by sort of going through the book line by line, and when you encounter an instruction, you do it. And if that approach is less daunting to somebody who, for example, may be sponsoring for the first time, and is like, I don't know how to do this, sort of just, you know, riff it. It was easy for him.
What happens when two seasoned members of Alcoholics Anonymous sit down for a chat? You get a mix of humor, deep reflections, and practical wisdom. In this episode of 'A Podcast Greater Than Yourself', John Barleycorn and Tony S. dive into the world of recovery, sharing their experiences and thoughts on the 12 Steps, sobriety, and the AA fellowship.
From the lighter side of recovery memes to the serious impact of specific chapters in the Big Book, they cover it all.

This episode isn't just about the struggles of alcoholism; it's about the gratitude and growth that come with sobriety.
