Sober Cast: An (unofficial) Alcoholics Anonymous Podcast Aa

I have something a little special today, this is the entire Friends In Recovery Roundup that was held in Durbin South Africa about a month ago (April 28-29 2023), this was an in-person and zoom event. The roundup is presented here in the same order as it was there, featuring eleven speakers from all over the world. I have to admit a bit of bias here, Dante L, the chairperson of the group that hosted the event reached out to me months before it happened and told me the story of the group and I was routing for their success. Bias aside they did a great job and I really think youll enjoy it, rather than break it up I am uploading it as one podcast. I also want to give a big "well done" to the folks that did the sound recording, impressive. Lastly, Dante kindly provided the description of the event below. The theme for the Rally was "A Daily Reprieve" and our slogan was "FIRRR Real" (Friends in recovery Roundup Rally). This was the first in person event for FIR and all the speakers are home group members of FIR,

This is the second part of a two part workshop on Emotional Sobriety was led by Joe & Charlie (yes that Joe and Charlie) along with John W, it was held at the Wilson House in 1990. This part touches on the emotional sobriety of the group and AA as a whole. Part 2 of 2. Part 1 was published yesterday and knowing folks will ask, just making it easier to find part 2.

This is the full 8 hour presentation of: A Mind Power Disease by Bob A, he is one of the folks that founded the Prime Time groups out of Los Angeles. He is speaking at a Retreat held in Auburn California in August 1994, he was 43 years sober at the time of this event. Last month I put up part one and a ton of you emailed asking for the rest of the workshop, so here it is all 7 parts and 8 hours long. This jumps right in and it also ends a bit abruptly . The audio quality of this was all over the map and it took forever to get it edited and evened out, overall its good with a few short fuzzy spots. I put about one second of click track between each of the 7 sessions so you know where they stop and start, and lastly if you are bandwidth aware you might want to grab this on wifi its about 250 megs.
