An (unofficial) Alcoholics Anonymous podcast featuring AA speaker meetings

This is not a discussion podcast, simply speaker meetings and workshops in a podcast format.

We are not affiliated with Alcoholics Anonymous in any way.

This is a very late version of the Joe and Charlie Big Book workshops recorded in 2003, the audio quality is excellent. If you have never heard a J & C workshop I would encourage you to give it a listen, there is a lot here. There is also a 4th step worksheet to accompany it, if you would like a copy you can download it from google drive here: https://scast.us/jc4th

This is part 5 of 8, it jumps right in from the end of yesterdays post.

Joe McQ and Charlie P met in 1973, they instantly discovered their mutual fascinations with AA's Big Book. The study they met for regularly became something they presented at meetings, eventually becoming this workshop.

At the AA International Convention in New Orleans in 1980, Wesley P, organized a lunch for 1,500 AA members from all over the world and gave away 100 Joe & Charlie workshop tape sets as door prizes. Invitations exploded, and within a couple of years Joe & Charlie were presenting about 36 seminars a year worldwide.

The forum is about half way set up and I should have it live sometime next week, I will post the url as soon as its done.

If you have any AA or Al-Anon event coming up let me know I am happy to help get the word out. https://scast.us/events
