Sober Cast: An (unofficial) Alcoholics Anonymous Podcast AA

Two Talks by Bill W at the 1965 Founders Day Celebration (Excellent Audio)

Bill W. speaking twice at Founders Day in Akron OH in 1965. This is the best quality recording of Bill I have ever heard.

In the first half of this speak Bill talks about how AA began and about the earliest days of AA

The second speak, at the Mayflower Hotel in Akron Ohio is about how the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous was written, the project and the actual writing and then how the Big Book was first printed and published.

 

Chuck C: A New Pair of Glasses, Part 6 (Repost)

The second episode of Sober Cast was the start of this 6 part series, I thought it was time for a repost.

Chuck C. was born in 1902, and got sober in A.A. in January 1946.

In these 1975 original recordings of Chuck C. at the Pala Mesa Men's Retreat, Chuck shares his experience, strength and hope about recovering from alcoholism. He tells how he recovered from a "tongue-chewing, babbling idiot drunk".

The Pala Mesa Men's Retreat had 64 AA men attending, these recording were made by one of these men on a small tape recorder, and the recording quality is pretty good considering that.

This series of talks was eventually transcribed into the book "A New Pair Of Glasses".

Topic: The Spiritual Experience -- Bill W

Bill W. one of the founders of AA speaking (in 1966) on the topic of the Spiritual Experience -- A Matter of Grace.

This has a bit of a hissing in the background, I have removed a good amount of it but had to leave some because removing it all distorted his voice, it ends abruptly during the Q&A.
