The Embrace of AA [Season 4, Episode 12]

Michaelene talks to Sam and Don about her life drinking and how she would lie, cheat, steal, con or manipulate others to get what she needed to drink; how she finally surrendered; and how AA members helped her through tragic situations.

In an "Ask it Basket" segment, the three discuss the difference between open and closed meetings.
