Dr Bob co-founder of AA speaking about his first 14 years.
Monday Jan 22, 2024
Monday Jan 22, 2024
I was thinking of adding a forum or discord so folks can discuss the speaks or whatever sober related. It would be private, I want to know if you would be into that? I put a one question survey up to get your opinion and I would be very grateful. https://scast.us/discuss
Dr Bob the other founder of AA is our speaker today. He is telling his story about his first 14 years in AA, this was recorded in 1949. The end if this speak (about 6 min) is a bit of Dr Bobs last talk in 1950.
There are no where near as many recordings of Dr Bob as there are of Bill W and the ones that are around are generally fairly bad, this one had a nasty hum, but it cleaned up really well and is one of the best I have heard of Dr Bob. Repost from 2018.

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

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.

Bruce M speaking in 1965 sober in 1945
Thursday Jan 12, 2023
Thursday Jan 12, 2023
This one may not be for everyone just because of the sound, there is a bit of a hollow sound to it, along with a slight echo. I think its very listenable, it cleaned up pretty well for something recorded at founders day in Akron Ohio in 1965. We have Bruce M sharing about AA and some of his story, he got sober in 1945.

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

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. Repost from early 2017.
