An Atheist Reads the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous

An Atheist Reads the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous

By Josh

My name is Josh C and I am an alcoholic in a 12 step program of recovery. I am also an atheist and have found some recovery programs challenging. In this podcast I read the original text of the AA big book and try to understand the god stuff from an atheist perspective. I also explore other forms of recovery as I load my toolbox with everything I can to keep sober one more day. I hope this podcast helps you do the same.

Episode 2: The Doctor's Opinion -July 4th of The Daily Stoic

Welcome to An Atheist Reads the Big Book of AA Episode Two! In this episode I will be reading The Doctor's Opinion as well as giving my feedback and commentary. As with every episode, we begin with reading from The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman to get us started! Today's reading asks: how are you protecting your own good? How are you allowing others to interact with that good? (Apologies for the audio artifacts! It has come to my attention have a habit of running my hands over my mouse/keyboard pad when I speak - this will not persist!)
