    My husband is six months into his sobriety after 35 years of drinking, and he is knocking it out of the park! I pointed him to this podcast, and it has been amazing! The stories are so robust, and full of information, perspectives, shares that make me realize as a wife, how fortunate I am. Even after all the massive issues we went through. Thank you Mike for starting this podcast! I am truly blessed with all these stories!! It has given me a perspective that even I can benefit from!

    I am someone who has not yet attended AA meetings - this may have been the gift I needed for inspiration to find my group. Host is smooth and easy to listen too.. thoughtful questions and great quality pod.
