Gayle W from Los Angeles California and sober 18 years tells her story with great humor and a big chunk of grace over adversity at the Houston Roundup in Houston Texas on November 27th 1992. LGBTQ
I have 4 versions of this speak and each one of them has really bad audio quality so I was never able to use it, and yesterday I got an email from Andrew R with a copy of it he had ripped from a cassette after hearing it. I ended up using the first 40ish min of his version and the last 10 min from a different version so you will notice a change in tone at about 40 min in and you may need to play with your bass knob a bit but I think youll find its worth it. Thank you Andrew.

I have something a little special today, this is the entire Friends In Recovery Roundup that was held in Durbin South Africa about a month ago (April 28-29 2023), this was an in-person and zoom event.
The roundup is presented here in the same order as it was there, featuring eleven speakers from all over the world. I have to admit a bit of bias here, Dante L, the chairperson of the group that hosted the event reached out to me months before it happened and told me the story of the group and I was routing for their success.
Bias aside they did a great job and I really think youll enjoy it, rather than break it up I am uploading it as one podcast. I also want to give a big "well done" to the folks that did the sound recording, impressive. Lastly, Dante kindly provided the description of the event below.
The theme for the Rally was "A Daily Reprieve" and our slogan was "FIRRR Real" (Friends in recovery Roundup Rally). This was the first in person event for FIR and all the speakers are home group members of FIR, we came together to celebrate our 3rd year of existence. The Group was born on zoom during Covid and a lot of the speakers got sober in FIR and on zoom.
Speakers spoke on ESH. What comes through in some of the shares is the support one receives from your homegroup and how FIR got some of the speakers started on their Recovery journey. We included Al-Anon speakers also.
AA Speakers (listed by sobriety date not in the order you'll hear them)
Nina N - Johannesburg SA, Sir David - Austria and Dhiren H - Durban SA (6 to 12 months sober)
Charis B - Illinois USA, Charnette H - Cape Town SA and Vuyo I - Johannesburg SA (1 to 3 years sober)
Lady Gwyneth - George SA, Tina B - Rhode Island USA, Thami M - Johannesburg SA (15 years to 40 years)
Al-Anon Speakers - Nirvasha S - Durban SA and Eddy H - Cape Town SA
-----
I just added a couple of items to the event list. The Northwest Fellowship of the Spirit Conference in Stanwood Washington toward the end of August. The AA International going on in 2025 up in Vancouver BC, you cant register yet, but heads up if you are thinking of going and you have a DUI in your past, look into being able to get into Canada, follow the links on the event page for more info. I live close to border in Bellingham WA and know folks that have been refused entry, depending on your history getting cleared can be a slow process.

Today we have Charlie R telling his story at the Birmingham Alabama Roundup held in April of 2012. This is very listenable but it starts sounding a little hollow toward the end... fyi.
