Retread [Season 7, Episode 19]

Aaron shares with Olis and Sam about his struggles to find sobriety in AA. For a time he had a head full of AA and a belly full of beer. After a couple years he learned to stop lying to himself and to God. Olis interviews Vera, a member of the Trustees Literature Committee, about the new pamphlet Black in AA: Experience, Strength and Hope. In the Ask it Basket, Rebecca has a question about sponsorship, and in Wit's End J.D. shares a joke.While we provide the podcast at no charge, we do have expenses.
