Chuck C presenting a speak called "A Spiritual Journey" at an unknown event held in 1970, he was 25 years sober at the time. Many of his speaks are awful sound quality, this is a big exception, it had a buzz that came right out making for a pleasant listen.
Chuck became sober in 1946 and by the time he passed away in 1984 at 39 years sober he had given hundreds of speaks all around the world. The book - A new Pair Of Glasses - was a transcript of his speak at a mens retreat. A new pair of glasses is still available: https://scast.us/newpair

I have had a number of requests to repost the speaks that became the book "A New Pair of Glasses". I originally posted this series in 2017, after 2600 Sober Cast episodes I am a bit better at audio cleanup, so I have gone back through and reworked the files a bit to improve the quality. Part 6 of 6.
Chuck C. was born in 1902, and got sober in A.A. in January 1946.
In these 1975 recordings of Chuck C. at the Pala Mesa Men's Retreat, Chuck shares his experience, strength and hope about recovering from alcoholism. He tells how he recovered from being a "tongue-chewing, babbling idiot drunk".
The Pala Mesa Men's Retreat had 64 AA men attending, these recording were made by one of these men on a small tape recorder, and the recording quality isnt fantastic but it is listenable.
This series of talks was eventually transcribed into the book "A New Pair Of Glass" The book is still available if you would like a copy https://scast.us/npog
