Wyn H. from Brisbane Australia speaking at The 6th Anniversary of AA in Australia in 1954 at an unknown event. This is a really excellent quality recording for 1954, however the first 60 seconds were garbled so I removed that and we jump in with Wyn beginning the story of his first contact with AA. I do not know the context of this recording but it feels like it is a little different from a standard speaker meeting.

This episode of Sober Cast is not an AA speaker, if you need to hear a meeting please pick a different episode, this is a bit of AA history.
The June 24th episode of Sober Cast was Bill B telling his story, he was the author of the screenplay for the 1989 movie My Name is Bill W., as the author of the screenplay he spent considerable time interviewing Lois W. the wife of Bill W.
In this Sober Cast episode I have edited together the three hours of interviews that he did with Lois regarding her life with Bill and the formation AA. It is a really excellent quality recording of Lois speaking in great detail about her life before and after Bill got sober and became the co-founder of AA.
My thanks to all of you that emailed and requested we add this to the podcast.

On the last day of pride month we are featuring multiple LGBTQ speakers from the 2015 ICAA conference sharing on the topic of, Lesbians & Gays in AA - Focus on Our Primary Purpose.
Sober Cast does try to provide a diverse selection of people on the podcast, however the vast majority of available recordings tend to skew to one demographic. If you have recordings that are LGBTQ, people of color, or folks from outside the US (english speakers) that you could share with us we would be very grateful. They can be uploaded here http://cduck.us/podup
