On the episode this week: Aaron wears underwear.

Aaron talks to guest Todd Eakes. Todd is a fellow pirate monk from Colorado. He shares his journey of getting caught with a prostitute, then to celebrate recovery, SLAA 12-step meetings, and Samson Society. Todd shares how he was adopted as an infant, and has been pursuing love, acceptance, and relationships from the wrong places. They talk about how to decide when to lead in recovery. And Todd has organized a Samson Colorado mini retreat.
