We did it again! We sat down and talked about ourselves for an hour! Hang in there with us on this one. The first half hour may be a real snoozer. Fortunately Jeffery stared asking some relevant questions, and got that ship turned around. Topics include the usual. LIFE...we're talking about life here people. Life as recovered drunkards and junkies. Give it a listen, or, give it a pass. But listen. Or don't. Yes do.

The fellows enjoyed sitting down with Audrey and hearing her story. This late bloomer started late, hit it hard, and finished early. Audrey tells how she suffered internal strife long before taking a drink, how a wedding in Malibu changed her perspective, and how her transformation was set in motion after. Audrey's joy for life is infectious, and we know you'll think so too. Soak it in folks.

After some technical difficulties, the boys sit down and get something recorded on take two. Topics include this stupid pandemic, lack of 12 step meetings, and navigating an uncertain future. Without a lot going on, we kept it short. Stay safe peoples.

Today the fellas sit down with recovered drug addict Connor Miller. Having been through multiple rehabs and time in jail, Connor's life changed after a chance encounter with a police officer. The resulting transformation has been extraordinary. Connor poured himself into work at his father's trucking company, and after experiencing burnout after several years, was moved to take up photography. That journey has led him to create Connor Miller Media. He also tells about the joys of fatherhood and meeting the love of his life. It was great to have Connor and his can do attitude on the show. You can find him on YouTube and Instagram @Connormillermedia and you can find his trucking company at https://www.ardentx.co/ Enjoy!

Michael's energy and attitude are infectious. She took the time to share her story with us, from her initial contact with the 12 step world, to the life she's loving today. She tells how she came to work for the treatment center where she got her start in recovery. She also raps about exercise, diet, and fulfillment she gets living life on a daily basis.

How to live a spiritually principled life in the midst of a pandemic. That's what the dudes are talking about today. That and Kyle and Megan killing a half marathon. The two go hand in hand. Practicing perseverance, understanding, and empathy is what came up in conversation this Sunday. Let our glorious voices take you away from the troubles of today, if only for and hour. You are welcome, world.

With all of the world quarantined, Kyle and Aaron are on their own again. Topics include Aaron's faith based approach to living going out the window in favor of sheer panic. Kyle's punk ass lives in a bubble and that sure sounds nice. Also, as fortune would have it, these assholes don't even have to attend meetings anymore. They discuss that added bonus, and gaining awareness through action. Go on and give it a listen. You don't have shit else to do!

We think that it's no coincidence that our 1 year anniversary just happens to coincide with a worldwide pandemic. Quarantine yourselves and listen to this gem! Without a guest, the fellows talk about a number of things. Topics include the stupid pandemic, financial well being, and Kyle's day of cake tasting and sucking up to his future mother in law. With everyone stuck at home, there's no better time to get hooked on RecoveredAF podcast! Tell a friend!

After some initial technical difficulties, the boys enjoy a fantastic interview with the amazing Myra! She tells how after initial contact with the 12 step world, it was another 4 years until she found her way to freedom. She shares how another's willingness to carry the message, got her to some big book recovery. She also talks about showing up and being of service in the lives of those around her. We really enjoyed listening to Myra and hope you will too!

Gunnar sits down with the fellows and tells what it's been like living life as a recovered person in the public eye. Gunnar's first experience with the 12 step world was at the behest of concerned family, but he was unwilling to concede. Gunnar spent 9 months following his impatient treatment stay going through the motions and sinking deeper into his alcoholism. He then had his moment of clarity and got into action immediately. After an abbreviated stay in treatment to detox, he got out, got to work, and has experienced a profound change as the result. He tells us what has resulted in the years following, including marriage, continued career success, being elected to public office, and giving back to the treatment center where he got his start. You'll not want to miss this episode!

Kyle and Aaron sit down with their mutual friend Jeff to talk about the 6th and 7th steps. When do we do them, how long does it take, and what all is involved? Listen to find out how we do.

After some unexpected audio difficulties with a guest from the northwest, the fellows have to resort to plan B. Kyle and Aaron recorded their 1st podcast from their new makeshift studio, and had plenty to say. The fellows talk about spiritual principles and what they look like applied to daily living. Hopefully the sound is improved, and we've rescheduled our guest. Get some of this tasty goodness!!!

Kyle and Aaron talk about some things. The topics may or may not be recovery related. Welcome to the best 50 minutes of your life, You're welcome.

The dudes sit down and have a talk with another Jeff. 5 years sober and restless, irritable, and discontented, Jeff needed a recovery overhaul. Jeff got busy and got into the work, and a life change was the result. He also tells what has kept him working with the newcomer, attending meetings regularly, and continuing to be a part of. Get you some of this!

The dudes sit down with two other dudes and have themselves another rectable discussion. The main focus of the conversation was going through the steps after having already had a spiritual experience. These busters have all had such an experience, and shared what it was like. Honestly, we recorded this a couple of weeks ago and that's about all I can remember. If I recall correctly, Ryan and Chet really saved this episode for us! Get some,

Topics are numerous on this episode of the podcast. The fellows regale us with stories of their comedy show attendance the night before, and how not to meet a celebrity. Also how human nature misleads us, and why relying on spiritual principles is the goal today. In addition, we discuss sponsorship and hit on amends again. This one is a real hoot!

Loyal listener, recovered alcoholic, and now friend, Randi sits down and shares her story with us. 13 months into her sobriety Randi was thrown a curve-ball and she knocked it out of the park. She tells how she drifted away from the fellowship, and what brought her back. Her reliance upon God and willingness to grow in the face of adversity is truly inspirational. She is on fire for recovery and for life! Enjoy!
