- Humour plays a vital role in recovery.
- Community support is crucial for maintaining sobriety.
- Spirituality is key to daily reprieve from alcoholism.

Pain shared is half pain. When something hurts real bad, if you can go share it with somebody else, like we're doing this morning, then you lose about half of that pain.
Tom C. takes the stage with a blend of humour, humility, and heartfelt sharing in this episode of Recovery Radio Network. From his early days in Melbourne Beach, Florida, to his deep connection with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Tom recounts his journey with candour and wit. His tale is peppered with anecdotes that range from amusing to poignant, like his comparison of himself to an M&M – colourful on the outside but gooey inside.
He openly discusses the struggles of alcoholism, the power of sharing pain and joy, and the importance of maintaining a spiritual condition for sobriety. Tom’s story is a testament to the power of community and the transformative impact of AA. He emphasises that sharing experiences, both good and bad, can lighten the burden of pain and double the joy.
With a touch of Southern charm, Tom’s narrative is both engaging and inspiring, making it clear why he has been sober since May 1st, 1971. If you’re looking for a mix of light-hearted moments and deep reflections on recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
