Yep, it's us again, Mike and Bill. And buckle up, because we had a lot to talk about.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about letting go and hanging on. Which is better and which is worse? Could they be interchangeable? It was a great topic and we had a good conversation.
Then we had a brief conversation about John Candy. There is a documentary out now about his life and we are both fans. We don...

This week we have...
Both Mike and Bill again! Mike is back and we had plenty to catch up on.
Mike started off with his reading and it was all about faith. Following those that came before us, taking suggestions that didn't make sense to us, acting "as if." It was a good reading and a good conversation.
Then we chatted about opinions and trust, the purpose of our lives, judging people and resentments and is this thing th...

This week we have...
Mike and Bill! Are you surprised? Mike was, so you are not alone.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about change and staying fresh in this thing that we do. We act differently, work our program differently and we grow as people. At least we should. It was a good conversation.
We also chatted about service work, did we hate what alcohol was doing to us, getting booze in hard times and a recap of some Cha...

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...

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...

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.

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...

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...

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
