Text and Be HeardSmoke, music, and a stadium full of stories—our Houston Rodeo broadcast turns championship barbecue into a roadmap for recovery. We break down why brisket, chicken, ribs, and dessert each mirror a vital piece of recovery living: the Steps as foundation, meetings as daily nourishment, traditions as structure, and fellowship as the sweet finish that keeps you coming back. If you've ever wondered how to make recovery feel real, tangible, and even joyful, this is your plate.We start with brisket and fat — no sauce, just truth. The Twelve Steps are the core cut: patience, heat, and practice until the obsession lets go. From emotional inventories to amends and service, you can't outthink wounds; you have to work them. Then we shift to chicken, a reminder that not all meetings feed you equally. We talk about finding rooms that lift you—Spanish Alcoholics, English Gamblers, topic nights, Big Book studies—so you leave feeling stronger, not stuck.Ribs bring the structure. Traditions and Unity Steps protect the room: singleness of purpose, principles over personalities, and humility guided by a higher power. That framework keeps groups honest and safe, letting the truth fall off the bone. Finally, dessert is fellowship—the sweetness of texts, hugs, and check-ins that make recovery feel like family. From pie and cobbler to late-night calls across languages, we celebrate the connections that turn recoveryy into a rich, shared life.Come for the rodeo, the music, and the world-class barbecue; stay for a vision of recovery that's flavorful, grounded, and free. If you're ready to build a foundation, find a meeting that feeds you, trust the traditions, and savor the fellowship, press play and join us.

Today's Show: WHEN PEOPLE DON'T LIKE YOU. In this short Montyman's Meditorial, Monty shares some helpful tips on how to respond to those who may be less than kind when interacting with you. There is a way to keep your dignity and peace even around folks that don't like us. #recovery #alcoholic #twelvesteps #wedorecover #addiction 

America faces coordinated threats from communist China, political Islam under Sharia, globalist technocracy, and domestic enablers — and this briefing lays out a focused, 12-step plan to respond. From border integrity, banning Sharia, exiting globalist institutions, and delisting CCP-linked firms to shrinking the administrative state and restoring a growth-first policy, the road map is concrete and urgent. It prioritizes cultural and spiritual renewal as the foundation for national resilience, then advances fiscal and monetary strategies, including gold-backed bonds and state-transactional gold and silver. Access the full economic battle plan and prepare your family to protect liberty and prosperity.

In this episode of the Sober.coffee Podcast, hosts Mike R. and Glenn H. are joined by guest Frank for a vulnerable conversation about the transformative "gift of desperation" and the necessity of planning for "tomorrows" in recovery.The trio explores how hitting rock bottom serves as a powerful catalyst, opening the mind to solutions that once seemed impossible. They emphasize that while sobriety begins with the decision to stop, long-term success requires "plugging in" to a community like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and following the guidance of those who have already navigated the path.Key Discussion PointsThe Gift of Desperation: All three speakers reached a point where the consequences of their drinking became so severe that they were finally willing to admit powerlessness and take any suggested action for recovery.Unresolved Trauma: Mike, Glenn, and Frank share their histories with trauma, agreeing that healthy resolution is mandatory because "wounds will not heal with sobriety alone".Accountability & Connection: The group highlights the power of staying connected through "constant contact" and leaning on sponsors. They describe the recovery community as the "wounded healing the wounded".Frank's Journey: Once a "weekend warrior" plagued by multiple DUIs and cycles of anger and regret, Frank discusses his shift toward a life of honesty and stress management.Quality Begets Quality: Glenn introduces the idea that a commitment to a high-quality recovery leads to a higher quality of life, noting movements like "dry months" as potential starting points for the "sober curious".The "Next Suggested Thing": Instead of trying to calculate a complex formula for success, the three concur that the most effective strategy is simply listening to guidance and doing the next right thing.Takeaways for the ListenerSet Success Expectations: Be open and intentional about your sobriety goals from the start.Embrace Guidance: Listen to those with more experience and be willing to follow directions without overthinking the process.Be There for the Next Guy: Recovery is a reciprocal process; being of service to others is vital for maintaining one's own sobriety.Choose Truth: Honesty is the foundation of managing stress and breaking the "vicious cycle" of regret.

HOW TO DEAL WITH A NARCISSIST This week's short Montyman's Meditorial Monty shares a few simple ideas that may help you deal with those who suck the energy right out of you with their self-absorbed ways #recovery #alcoholic #twelvesteps #wedorecover #addiction 

Podcast Summary: Don't Be a RichardThis week on Sober.Coffee, Tim D joins Mike and Glenn to discuss the nuances of living a life in recovery beyond simple abstinence. The episode, titled “Don't be a Richard,” explores the shift from just "not drinking" to actively "living better" through consistent, responsible action.Key Talking PointsThe "Next Right Thing": Sobriety is more than just avoiding alcohol; it is a way of life focused on doing the next right thing rather than the next wrong thing.Living Better: Once the initial hurdle of drinking is cleared, the focus shifts to creating a new, healthier path.Redemptive Qualities: Identifying with our "core selves"—the third grader inside—stirs qualities like trust and accountability that develop over time.Hard Work After the Drink: Real recovery starts after stopping the substance; it involves persistent effort to maintain accountability and consistent action.Perspective and Pause: When old, distorted thoughts surface, a simple pause provides the perspective needed to avoid old patterns and rejoin the right path.From Chaos to Calm: The journey leads from a life of chaos to one of confidence, comfort, and internal peace.The Role of Community: Ultimate answers and support are found within the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous and the fellowship of others who have walked the path.Recovery qualifies us for a "more better" life, where we no longer regret the past but allow it to shape our future for the good.

In this episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast, hosts Mike and Glenn welcome guest Tim D to the coffee shop for a raw exploration of recovery titled "No Longer Paralyzed—healing through ‘help.'" The trio dives into the defining habits of alcoholism and the realization that while habits drive us, we have the power to shift from cycles of negativity to victories. They reflect on the "box" of addiction that once kept them paralyzed and why the simple, repeated action of attending meetings remains a vital lifeline. Key Discussion Points:The Power of Help: Challenging the stigma of reaching out, the group discusses why asking for help is a "superpower" and the essential act of "ripping off the mask" to find clarity.Action Over Impulse: A deep look at why we often don't "feel" like doing the right thing, but choose to do it anyway to maintain the gift of sobriety.New Beginnings: How new members energize the program by reminding veterans of where they came from, reinforcing that most don't have "another relapse" in them.Responsibility in a Troubling World: Navigating a society filled with conflicting opinions by focusing on personal responsibility and being "aware" enough to choose life over a drink. “I walk the sober path of recovery intensely and reap rewards beyond imagination... If I can help one individual toward sober success, my purpose has been fulfilled.”ABOUT US - Sober Coffee

What if your addiction wasn't just a "curse," but a profound spiritual crisis—a "spiritual homesickness" searching for a home? What if your addiction is your ultimate calling?In this episode of SOBER.COFFEE, Glenn and Mike dive into the raw, authentic reality of the recovery journey. They reframe the struggle of substance abuse as a misplaced quest, the seeking of wholeness, for a higher-power relationship, as they uncover why so many of us felt "liberated" for a fleeting moment, only to be left in deep isolation.Join us as we explore the "Great Exchange"—stripping away the inefficiencies of regret and remorse to fill up with the efficiency of hope. and purpose  If you are currently in the hell of addiction or seeking a "True North" in your recovery, this conversation offers a powerful message on how to turn your curse into your calling.Key Takeaways:The Spiritual Void: Why addiction is often a searching for a higher-power connection.Capturing Lightning Twice: Understanding the futility of chasing the initial high and finding a redefined Higher Power instead.The Emptying Process: Why you must empty yourself of self to make room for a raw, real life experience.The "Why" vs. the "What": Shifting your mindset from "Why was I like this?" to "What am I now?".Finding Purpose: Discovering your calling at the intersection of abstinence and hope.

Send us a textService work in AA recovery isn't about giving back - it's about belonging, commitment, and staying sober. "I don't even drink coffee.""That's fine. You haven't been nominated to drink coffee. You've been nominated to make coffee."Steve heard this exchange at his Thursday night men's meeting, and it might be the greatest line about service work ever spoken. Because that's exactly what service work is - doing something that isn't about you, that gets you connected, that gets you showing up.In this episode, Matt and Steve dig into service work in recovery - what it is, why people are afraid of it, and why it might be one of the most important parts of staying sober that nobody talks about enough.Matt opens up about his early motivation for service work, and it wasn't the noble "giving back" thing everyone talks about. It was simpler: "I wanted to feel like I belonged." He shares the story of being a door greeter at the Tuesday night Forbes Street meeting - scared out of his mind, showing up 30 minutes early every week, hugging everyone who walked in. By the end of 5 weeks, he knew everyone in that room. That's the power of service work.Steve talks about his journey from cleaning ashtrays and taking out trash at his Friday night men's meeting to doing district-level work 15+ years later. But here's what he says: "The most rewarding service work is still at the meeting level - because that's where you meet the new alcoholic, the fresh alcoholic who just came out of rehab or is just looking for a meeting."We break down what service work actually looks like:The basics: Putting away chairs, breaking down tables, making coffeeThe commitments: Chairing meetings, being treasurer, being secretaryThe next level: GSR (General Service Representative), district workThe often-overlooked one: Driving people to meetingsMatt shares the "dirty little secret" about service work: it gets you to go to meetings. When you have a commitment - coffee maker, chairperson, door greeter - you show up. You don't bail because you don't feel like it. You're expected to be there, so you go. And that commitment to the meeting becomes a commitment to your sobriety.Steve talks about why he keeps taking service commitments even after 15+ years: "It makes me part of that meeting so much more quickly. This Wednesday noon meeting, I've only been going for about a year and a half, and there are people who've been there for 20 years. But taking the coffee commitment puts me in as part of that group way faster than if I just show up and never do anything."We also tackle the fears people have about service work:"I'm too new" (Matt's fear early on)"I'll do it wrong" (Matt's coffee-making anxiety)"People will judge me"The truth: The stakes are incredibly low. You can't really screw this up.Plus: The story of Ted S. filling the entire percolator basket with coffee grounds because he'd never made coffee before (that's one STRONG cup), why the phone weighs 500 pounds but picking someone up for a meeting is huge service work, and Matt's realization that he never volunteered for coffee at the Monday meeting because he doesn't drink coffee there (problem solved - he's volunteering now).If you're new to recovery and wondering if you should takeSupport the show
