What happened - What its like

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.

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.
