I debated if I should post this one or not, and not because of the topic, but because of the way parts of this are framed by the presenter. He does a good job of going through the sex inventory questions as presented in the big book, but he does it from the perspective of an old straight dude that is solidly from the 1950's. Please keep that in mind as you listen.... take what you need and leave the rest. I dont know the where or when of this one.

If you have a speaker sharing on this topic with a bit more of a "current times" take on it please let me know I would like to post it.

Bob A is the primary speaker leading this topic meeting on the subject of How I Came To Stay Sober held at the December of 1995 Prime Time Stag Meeting. This has multiple folks sharing on the topic, Bob is the primary speaker and leads the group, he was a very popular speaker back in his time. There are a couple of questions at the end you may not be able to make out, they are quick so I didn't remove them, this has a bit of an abrupt ending but it was clearly over.

The Little Red Book

In 1942, Ed W. began teaching the “Twelve Step Study” classes that helped the Minneapolis Group achieve their 75% recovery rate. Then in 1946, he and Barry C. (The first sober A.A. in the state) published the lectures used for these classes as a book. Initially titled The Twelve Steps, it was affectionately nicknamed “The little red book.”

Back in print for the first time in more than 65 years, the original 1946 edition reveals firsthand how some of A.A.’s earliest members made the program their way of life. Everyone from newcomers to oldtimers will find a wealth of practical experience in this comprehensive guide to the Twelve Steps.
