Topic: AA founder Bill W speaking on each of the 12 traditions
Thursday Aug 10, 2023
Thursday Aug 10, 2023
This is AA founder Bill W speaking on each of the 12 traditions one at a time. I had posted a version of this in 2019, and recently came across this recording of the same speak with much better audio quality. That being said it took quite a while to get it cleaned up and it was missing the last 4 min. so I added the missing part from another copy. Repost
The quality is excellent except for the very end, this audio is from a film that was intended to be shown in AA meetings. I dont know exactly when it was made but it was after Dr Bob's death.

Bill W telling his story and how it led to the creation of AA
Tuesday Aug 08, 2023
Tuesday Aug 08, 2023
AA founder Bill W speaking at an unknown event in Des Moines Iowa in Nov of 1948. Many of the recordings of Bill are him speaking on a specific topic, this one is not, he simply tells his story and how it leads to the creation of AA. This is a great quality recording for 1948. Repost

Gail L from Akron Ohio is speaking at the Second Liberty Bell Roundup in June of 2013. Gail is an AA archivist and historian, her speak is about AA History. She became sober in May of 1978, her presentation at the 2013 Second Liberty Bell Roundup contained photos but not having them does not detract from the speak.

AA History: Nell Wing
Saturday Jul 08, 2023
Saturday Jul 08, 2023
This one is for the AA history buffs, if you need to hear a meeting right now pick a different episode.
Nell Wing is likely someone you have never heard of, she began working at AA World Headquarters in 1947, she is speaking at the first Monterey California Roundup in September of 1993. She tends to verbally wander around a bit but there are some interesting bits of AA history mixed in as well, I was particularly amused by her Ebby story.

Ebby T - An early member of AA and Bill W’s sponsor
Sunday Apr 16, 2023
Sunday Apr 16, 2023
Ebby T - An early member of AA referred to as Bill W's sponsor, speaking in San Jose in 1962. Well worth a listen if you are interested in early AA. Pretty good audio quality for the 60's Repost
Ebby is credited with introducing Bill to the initial principles that AA would soon develop, such as one alcoholic talking to another. If you would like to learn more about Ebby there is a very good book about him "Ebby: The Man Who Sponsored Bill W."
He sparked the creation of AA but was unable to maintain long term sobriety. Bill always called Ebby his "sponsor," and even though he had returned to drinking, Bill looked after his friend's welfare for the rest of his life. Ebby struggled on and off with sobriety over the years, and ultimately died sober in 1966.

ESH: Bill C an interesting speak on a lot of topics (NSFW)
Saturday Apr 01, 2023
Saturday Apr 01, 2023
Bill C from California was sober for 22 years at the time of this speak at the West Portland Group in 2008, he does a really nice job in the first part of his speak talking through some of the old AA literature and the Oxford group, its an interesting speak on a lot of topics. There is some Q&A at the end and you cant hear the questions so I cut them out, but he does a good job of recapping before answering, one last thing it ends a bit abruptly. I also have a lot of recordings of this guy so email me if you would like more from him. NSFW

Tuesday Mar 21, 2023
This is a workshop led by Jim K (he got sober in 1980 at 17 years old) he leads a workshop from WACYPAA15 held in Las Vegas from 2012 on the topic of The Sermon On The Mount, a book written by Emmet Fox and first published in 1935. It is one of the books used by folks in the earliest days of AA before the Big Book was written. Repost from mid 2019. Lastly if you are in the PNW check out the event listed below.
There is some Q & A at the back end of this workshop, some of the comments are difficult to hear...fyi

ESH: Clyde D
Monday Feb 06, 2023
Monday Feb 06, 2023
It felt like a while since we have had a speaker from the past and I started looking through my archives and found this speak by a man named Clyde D. Clyde is from El Monte California and is telling his story at the NCCAA Fall Conference in Fresno California in October of 1969 (for a 1969 recording the audio quality is remarkable).
