Betty G - @buddha.betty
Betty knows what rock bottom looks like. Before 2019 her days were a blur of heroin, street hustle, and heartbreak—with the unthinkable pain of losing both parents to suicide.
Then a single, life-shaking moment changed everything: a near-death-like experience during an overdose that sent her through a cosmic replay of her life, face-to-face with loved ones on the other side, and straight ...
This week we have...
Our good friend Mara @marajsankin from Cleveland and from Episode 94. (Check out that episode to hear her full story)
This time she is with us to talk about what she does for a living and about her new business venture.
The episode is all about death, in the best way possible, and Mara explains how it is her mission to help people die with dignity.
This is an episode that is unlike anything we have done before and...
This week we have...
Episode Murder. Yes! It's Episode 187 and This Episode Will Kill You. Or at least make you laugh. Or smile. Or something.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about role models and copying what good people do. We needed that when we got sober and had the privilege of having many good role models.
Then it was Jamie Lee Curtis, Lost In Space, things we should change, a baby shower, expecting the worst, ...
Yes! It's a Bonus Clip!
This is a clip from Episode 186 and it isolates the readings (yes, he did 2 this week) that Mike did on the episode.
Mike did his homework and picked out a couple of readings that fit the "mood" of the week, but more importantly, fit with what we believe and how we feel.
If you listen closely, you will hear what he is trying to say.
Enjoy the clip.

This week we have...
Mike and Bill, with a lot to talk about. It was a weird week, but it gets sliced up and laid out in the only way that we know how.
Mike started out and actually did a couple of readings this week. They were short, but they had a point to them.
The main lesson is what we try to live by; Try to make your corner of the world a little better today and there are solutions.
Danger Moose and The Cheese are retired. For n...
This week we have...
A change in plans! Yes, we had our good friend Kate scheduled, but there was a technology issue, so you are stuck with Mike and Bill.
We will have Kate on a some point though. We promise.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about Fear, Faith and Courage. Things scared us in early recovery, and we still get scared, but we have the tools to deal with all of it. And do it all sober. It was a good conversati...
This week we have...
Mike and Bill on Hump Day! Yes, we have plans this weekend, so we recorded early. Not that it matters, but we are telling you either way.
Mike kicked things off with his reading and it was about life on life's terms. Things happen (good, bad and indifferent), but how we handle those things is what matters. Do we want to be part of the problem or part of the solution? It was a good talk.
We chatted about the Crack...
This week we have...
First of all, Mike is back!
And secondly, it's the Season 7 Finale! Do you care? Just a little?
Well, we started our a little punchy, but of course in a fun way. And we had a lot to talk about.
Mike was back with his reading and it was a really good one. It was about relationships, both in and out of recovery and it hit home with us. It was a great conversation.
Then we did a wrap up of our family trip, talked ab...
This week we have...
Ian Fee ( #ian.fee ) is a successful author, entrepreneur, and the creator of Make It Great (MIG).
Proudly sober since 2017, he has dedicated himself to personal growth, family, and living a life of purpose and clarity.
His journey from addiction to empowerment has become his mission: to help others trapped in the same cycle of self-destruction break free and embark on their own transformative path to health, pa...
This week we have...
Mike and Bill and Mike had an announcement! Yes, you need to listen to hear it.
And we had a bit of a technical glitch at about 4 or 5 minutes into into the episode. Just hang in with us, because we worked through it and no. We didn't edit anything.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about the pace of life. Before we got sober it was all chaos, intensity and drama. But now, for the most part, we have pea...
This week we have...
The hosts of this fine podcast are back for another week of whatever we feel like talking about. Sober stuff and all the rest.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about the Higher Power stuff. Yes, we all need one, but it can be a bit challenging at times, especially in the beginning. We had a good conversation and it was a great reading.
We had a nice comment from a follower and a new listener, plus he s...
Yes! It's a Bonus Clip!
Everyone is talking about Ozzy, and we are no different. Or are we?
This is a clip from Episode 179 and we did this clip to give everyone a bite sized portion of the episode, but yes, you should listen to the whole thing.
We had a conversation about Ozzy and his career. Mike is our resident music expert and he has a possibly different view of Ozzy in general, but it's worth the listen.
Enjoy the clip.

This week we have...
More fun with Mike and Bill. Yep, it's your favorite wacky duo, back at it.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about courage and change. Becoming different people in recovery and finally accepting life, truth and consequences. It was a great topic and a good conversation.
Our friend Heidi (Episode 87) celebrated 20 years sober this week. It may not always be strawberries and orgasms, but she has done thi...
This week we have...
Mike and Bill and we are proud to report that neither one of us attended a Cold Play concert this week. For any reason.
Mike started out with his reading and it was all about trusting in someone or something other than ourselves. The Higher Power thing and others that have showed us the way. It was a good reading and a good conversation, because that is the backbone of what we need to do every day.
This was a mid...
This week we have...
Mike and Bill, back to normal. And we use the word "normal," very loosely.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about keeping it simple. It's a common phrase in the recovery community and although it should be "simple," it can be challenging. We had a good conversation.
We talked about an AA anniversary, Mary Lou Retton, the history behind John Barleycorn, acting like a sober person, negative sentences, Co...
This week we have...
Mike and Bill's 4th of July, Freedom Episode.
Mike started off with his reading and yes, it was about freedom. During our active addiction, we had no freedom at all. We were ruled by alcohol and drugs and life was a chore.
Now we can do what we want, when we want (within reason) and life is far better. Enjoy the freedom.
We ranted a bit about podcasters begging for money and using guilt along the way. We don't like...
Change of plans! This week it's Mike and Bill, your Serene Curmudgeons.
We had a connection issue with Kate and we will reschedule her in the next few weeks, so you are stuck with us this week.
Mike did his reading and it was about issues and problems and how we look at them these days. Are they really a big deal or do we make them a big deal? We need help with some things and other things just take time and patience. It was a good c...
This week we have...
Father Bill W. - Author of "The Power Of Two Way Prayer."
Let's be honest, we had no idea how this episode might go. I mean really. It's a priest and it's us. But...
The episode was wonderful. Listen and you will see what we mean. It was a great conversation and he was a great guest.

Yep, it's us again. We are Mike and Bill. Nice to meet you.
Mike started out with his reading and it was inspired by a lead that he heard earlier in the week. It was about honesty and that is the backbone of our program, so it was a really good conversation.
Our friend Tim celebrated 40 years sober this week and we gave him a well deserved shout out.
We did some reminiscing about a group that we attended at the Keating Center, chatted...
It's Founder's Day Weekend! And it's the 90th Anniversary of the founding of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Mike started out with his reading and it was all about the "we" of the program. We learn to set our egos aside, be of service to others and we become a group of people, with the same goal. We are Brothers In Defects. It was a great reading and a great conversation.
We found out this week that Marc Maron will be ending his podcast this f...
