Today we have Chris. He is 55 years old, from Madison, WI, and he took his last drink of alcohol on April 7th, 2015.   This episode is brought to you by:   Sign up and get 10% off: Better Help Café RE – THE social app for sober people Bozeman 2026 – August 12th-16th, 2026   [02:02] Thoughts from Paul:   Paul recently gave an opening talk at a fundraising gala for Yellowstone Alliance Adventures. This is the venue where the annual Bozeman retreat is held. He shared with the guests that he holds an annual sober retreat there but initially hadn't rehearsed sharing that he was also sober. After a few moments of silence, mid-talk, Paul shared that he is also in recovery.   Paul says he knows he didn't have to share that part, but when he did, it felt good to be up there in front of a crowd as his authentic self. In a world that can very fake and shallow, people are craving authenticity. Paul wants to go places where he can be himself.   Listeners, where can you show up as yourself in your life? What curtains, walls, or barriers are you hiding behind where you think people don't want to see you? While it isn't easy to show up as your authentic self, you will be rewarded by doing so.   We are here; we are whole.   [07:03] Paul introduces Chris:   Chris is 55 years old, works in IT by day, has three kids across two marriages and for fun he likes to make music, create games, and enjoys working on art.   Chris' parents divorced when he was young due to his father's drinking. Because there was so much going on at home, Chris says he focused much of his attention on school, sports, drama and choir to remain out of the house. He shares that he only drank one time in high school and got caught and ended up with some consequences.   Once in college, Chris had the freedom to drinking and other drugs pretty heavily right away. Early on, he got kicked out of a bar. During is freshman year, depression kicked in and he had a suicide attempt. Chris says drinking was never good for him. He never felt like it was solving any problems, but he was entranced by it.   Chris never really saw his drinking as a problem and surrounded himself by people that drank like he did. He enjoyed playing in bands and going to bars. Over the next 15 years he began to get away from the drugs but found his alcohol use increasing to compensate. By his mid-30's, Chris says it was just him in his basement pretending to record music or write a book, but the reality was it was just him down there drinking.   At this point in time, Chris knew he had to try and control his drinking but was unable to do so. His second marriage was to someone who drank more than he did, which he assumed meant she wouldn't hassle him about what he was doing.     Chris says there wasn't a definitive moment that led him to quit, it was more a gradual decent. He lost his job because he wasn't very present, he got a DUI and then got a divorce, all within six months' time. He had court ordered sobriety and white knuckled it for a while but ultimately planned his relapse which led to him drinking all hours of the day and realizing alcohol wasn't working anymore.   Chris reflects that this realization was a good thing. He tried a lot of different things in the beginning: AA, SMART recovery, podcasts, Quitlit – anything to fill the void he initially felt by not drinking. He was always willing to try different things and acknowledges that some things come and go. He joined Café RE for a songwriting course as he was approaching 10 years sober. Chris knows that staying strong in his recovery daily is what will keep him from relapsing.   Chris is grateful for his sobriety as he has navigated some difficult things over the last several years. He is glad he no longer uses alcohol as a crutch to make it through life. When times are tough, he leans more into more meetings or talking to friends.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down You got to take the stairs back up We can do this I love you guys   RE Instagram Sobriety Tracker iTunes  RE YouTube

We're trying out something new for our first podcast episode of 2026! Marc, Natee and Gemma are joined by returning guest Christopher DiPiazza, teacher, palaeoartist and now budding palaeontologist. Not only does he fill us in about all his adventures working with fossils from the Maryland Dinosaur Park bone beds, he also joins us for our Vintage Dinosaur Art discussion. Chris introduces us to the work of Pam Mara as it appears in several volumes of Rourke dinosaur books. These came out in the 1980s and have been illustrated by a handful of different artists, of which Pam Mara was one that proved particularly formative to Chris' young mind... Do old, half-remembered books still subliminally influence the artist's work? Why is Coelophysis purple? How is a tyrannosaur like Mickey Mouse? Why can we imagine the smell of vinyl when looking at these illustrations? And where does Gemma draw the line when it comes to stylization? Join us for the first episode of 2026!   Show Notes at Chasmosaurs.com!

It's the High Society Radio Christmas special no one invited them to. Chris Faga and Chris Stanley are back to basics — talking parties they didn't make the list for, Sandals resorts, and the invention of the “suaslide.” The boys break down Polymarket bets on global wars, Tucker Carlson's new Qatari adventures, and the chaos of AI teaming up with Disney.

How secure is your faith-firewall? Are you constantly battling faith-breaches, compromises, or spiritual malware? In this episode, Chris Cooper, a cybersecurity professional and founder of Lighthouse in Me, LLC, draws striking parallels between protecting data and guarding our souls. Just as companies build defenses against digital threats, Christians must protect their hearts and minds from spiritual attacks. God's Word, says Chris, is the Christian's firewall and eternal policy for protection. Obedience to Scripture determines its effectiveness.Chris's faith journey took a pivotal turn during a career setback, when he realized that true security doesn't come from self-reliance but surrender to God. Letting go of his personal agenda, Chris describes how he embraced God's plan and built his "faith-firewall" through Scripture. Drawing from the parable of the talents in Matthew 25, Chris learned how to invest his time, skills, and finances for God's glory. Viewing work as ministry is a transformative faith practice for Chris. In a world that often separates the sacred from the professional, he believes that his vocation is a platform for worship, serving others, and modeling his faith. Whether managing digital threats or mentoring colleagues, every task is an opportunity to bring eternal value into the workplace.More about Chris:Chris is a seasoned executive leader and devoted Christ follower who brings a unique blend of professional expertise and faith-driven purpose to everything he does. With a career rooted in technology, cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and risk management, Chris has helped organizations navigate complex challenges with integrity, innovation, and a deep commitment to stewardship.Outside of his professional life, Chris has a long history of community involvement. He's served as a United Way volunteer and Campaign Chairman, helped launch multiple Bible studies over the past decade, and currently serves on both The Salvation Army Midland Division Advisory Board and the Gateway Citadel Advisory Council. Chris is married to his wife Wendy, and together they share a beautifully blended family of five children. In late 2024, they launched Lighthouse in Me LLC, a faith-based initiative focused on inspiring and empowering others to live boldly in their faith. Chris also serves as the Market President of C-Suite for Christ St. Louis, where he is passionate about building trusted leadership, fostering meaningful community, and creating spaces where faith can flourish.Support the showTransforming the workplace one Bible study at a time - DONATE today!

Episode 489 – The Best Parts of an Alcohol-Free Life   Today we have Chris. He is 56 years old and lives in Beacon, NY and took his last drink on April 18th, 2024.   Registration for our next Alcohol-Free travel trip to Vietnam opens TODAY! This upcoming January 9th-20th, 2025, we're heading to this incredible Southeast Asia paradise for 10 days and 11 nights with 25 travelers who are done nursing hangovers.   Welcome to our new listeners! We are glad to have you with us. You are in the right place. There is a whole new authentic life awaiting you, which isn't far away.   Congratulations to Paul and his wife on the birth of their new baby boy!   Better Help:  www.betterhelp.com/elevator - 10% off your first month. #sponsored   [04:10] Thoughts from Paul:   A few weeks ago, Paul asked our Instagram followers what is the best part of being sober or living an alcohol free life. He shares with us some of the responses he received.   The four biggest commonalities he saw were: 1)    More authenticity 2)    Less shame and regret 3)    More energy 4)    More clarity   Think of the sobriety quote “you're giving up one thing for everything”.   Sober Link   [11:16] Paul introduces Chris:   Chris says he is 56 years old and grew up in northern New Jersey, close to NYC. Cooking is his passion, and he has worked in the food and beverage industry all of his life, currently in a director role. Chris also enjoys the outdoors and currently lives in the Hudson Valley.   Beyond the occasional night of overindulgence, Chris says his drinking was normal. He was around alcohol a lot in the industry he works in. After getting married, he and his wife enjoyed entertaining in addition to traveling to wineries and distilleries and building a collection. Over time Chris began drinking more than just wine with dinner, had booze all over the house and was drinking earlier in the day and more often.   After he and his wife got divorced, Chris found himself drinking more heavily and was less discriminate of what he was drinking as long as he was getting his fix, as he calls it. He was breaking commitments and becoming less functional in his day-to-day life.   Chris didn't drink heavily around other people but told his family in 2018 that he needed help. He went into treatment and was able to gain 14 months. He was part of a sober community called Ben's Friends geared towards those in the service industry. Chris was able to gain some sobriety time but had a series of stops and starts with several more visits to rehab as well.   Currently at 34 days, Chris is working on rebuilding his life. He knows time will heal his relationships with family, and he is attending IOP for accountability. He is spending a lot of time outdoors and is grateful that the weather has been nice. He attends AA meetings, Café RE chats, and participates in meetings with Ben's Friends. Missing meetings is a non-negotiable for Chris and he also makes sure to nurture himself physically and spiritually.   Chris' best sober moment: being present with his partner while on vacation.   Chris' parting piece of guidance: stay connected.   Café RE – promo code OPPORTUNITY waives set up fee.
