This is a topic Al-Anon meeting on the 4 Phases to Growth featuring four speakers (all men). I couldn't find out a lot about this other than it was a 34th. Annual Conference held in Michigan sometime in 1986. I assume it was an Al-Anon conference since all the other speakers I have from it identify as Al-Anon.

Lastly it cleaned up really well and is an easy listen but during the last 2 speakers there is an occasional crackling popping sound I couldn't remove, its not that annoying...fyi.

This sounds a bit fuzzy for the first 4 min then it clears right up. This one is a bit of AA history and a bit of nostalgia for your podcaster since I was at this meeting. In 1995 AA held its 60th Anniversary Conference in San Diego California with 56,000 people in attendance.

The theme for the convention was A.A. Everywhere – Anywhere. It was the very first time many Eastern European countries had been able to attend an international AA event including Russia. This meeting features members speaking about their first encounter with AA and the founding of AA in multiple Eastern Europe countries and in Russia.

Today we have multiple speakers each having over 20 years sober sharing at the old timers meeting hosted at the 24th Big Island Bash held in Kona Hawaii in April of 2012. There was a considerable amount of unpleasant mike noise as the speakers changed, I cut as much of that out as possible, it made for some abrupt starts and stops. NSFW

With Speaker Potluck, just like in a real meeting you dont know what you are going to hear, till you do. I grabbed four 15min speakers without listening to them in advance, then created the audio. You get what you get, enjoy.

This is a 4th Step Workshop held in Mankato Minnesota in 2008 hosted by an unknown group, this part of the workshop focuses specifically on the sex conduct portion. This was a very straightforward presentation going through the topic with a sentence by sentence breakdown from the big book with a solid lack of opinion by the two guys that hosted it. If anyone out there has a workshop on this topic presented by women I would love to post that, please email me.

This is a workshop that took place in Medford Oregon on the topic of Safety, Inclusivity and Diversity in AA from June of 2020. Five folks of different backgrounds deal with a number of different topics discussing their personal struggles, challenges and solutions regarding safety, inclusivity and diversity in AA. This was early days in the pandemic so zoom bombing is also a topic. NSFW - Zoom

I removed all the "how to participate" discussion at the beginning (and a ton of announcements at the end) so it feels like it just jumps right in and then out at the end. I also removed a number of spots of dead air between some of the comments and speakers and marked this as NSFW simply because some of the topics might not be appropriate at some workplaces.
