An AA meeting in a Podcast. Sobercast is an (unofficial) Alcoholics Anonymous podcast featuring AA speaker meetings and workshops. This is not a discussion podcast, simply speaker meetings and workshops in a podcast format.
The Sober Cast: An (unofficial) Alcoholics Anonymous Podcast is an incredible resource for those in recovery from alcohol addiction. As someone who has been sober for over 7 years, I can confidently say that this podcast has played a significant role in my journey. It has become one of my favorite apps, and I want to express my gratitude to whoever runs it.
One of the best aspects of The Sober Cast is the wide variety of speakers and topics covered. Not only are there circuit speakers, but there are also regular members sharing their stories and experiences. This diversity allows listeners to connect with different perspectives and find inspiration in various ways. Additionally, the podcast has been particularly helpful during the pandemic when in-person meetings have been limited or unavailable. The daily chairs and relatable shares have provided a sense of community and support during challenging times.
While not every speaker or topic may be awe-inspiring, there have been a few that have truly touched me and helped reshape my life for the better. These speakers have inspired me to make positive changes and deepen my understanding of sobriety. Despite occasional misses, overall, the quality of the content is excellent.
Furthermore, The Sober Cast has helped me recognize some deep-rooted issues within myself that contributed to my addiction. It has shed light on my selfishness and why I turned to alcohol as a coping mechanism. Through listening to these speakers' stories, I have learned that selflessness and service to others are key components of recovery. Each speaker's vulnerability is heartwarming, making me want to give them all a big hug while expressing gratitude for sharing the language of the heart.
In conclusion, I am incredibly grateful for The Sober Cast: An (unofficial) Alcoholics Anonymous Podcast. It has had a profoundly positive impact on my life as someone who is over 7 years sober. Especially during tough times like these, when physical AA meetings are not possible, this podcast has been a lifeline for many. The diverse range of speakers and topics, along with the sense of community it provides, make it an invaluable resource for anyone in recovery. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking support and inspiration on their sober journey.
