Yesterday we had a workshop on the 12 steps and I thought it might be fitting to feature the same, but on the 12 traditions. So, today we have Bob D leading a workshop on the 12 Traditions one by one.

He makes some interesting points in relation to speakers and anonymity on the internet, but keep in mind this was recorded in 2003. There is about 3 seconds missing between part one and two at approx. 1:06ish.

Here at Sober Cast I try to beep any last name I hear including Bill W's regardless of how well known it is at this point. If you ever hear a last name (it occasionally happens) please use drop me an email with the episode title and about the time in the recording you heard it, thank you .

Earl H leads this 2 day workshop where he takes the folks attending through each of the 12 steps one by one at Columbus Isle, this was held in 2003. This was a 2 day event, this is both days combined into one audio file.

Earl is one of my favorite speakers, he carries a great message delivered with lots of self-deprecating humor. This was a 2 day event, this is both days combined into one audio file.

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.
