Podcasts by AA Big Book Workshop
Recovered alcoholics dissect the basic text of Alcoholics Anonymous. We only offer our experience and what we know of the basic text as written in 1939 (which we mostly stole from other people, TBH, but they had some good stuff). Created by the Ladies Big Book club, just a bunch of ladies who like to study the Big Book. ladiesbigbook.com
