Welcome to Episode 18! If you’re looking for an insightful, interesting and sometimes even funny conversation about building a sustainable life, then you are in the right place! Breakfast this week is with Matt Andersen who writes The Spittoon right here on Substack:

Matt talks about the evolving nature of his spirituality and how praying, even when you don’t yet believe, can play an important role in recovery. We also talk about coming to understand the contours of our faith and the nature of our Higher Power. I really enjoyed the conversation and think you will, too.

Here’s the deal: I spend hours and hours every week trying to bring you interesting conversations and insightful gratitude lists and what not. You type your email address in there and we’re even!

You can check out the Liner Notes for this Episode here:

I do need to say something on the stern side. But first, I need everyone to listen to this:

I would estimate that 80-90% of the Alcoholic Lightning Rounds have featured a question about Wang Chung. And no one has ever gotten it right. Please pause and let that sink in. I grew so frustrated at this I began putting the song in footnotes in the Daily Gratitude List with subtle reminders like, “If you are ever on Breakfast with an Alcoholic you should listen to this.” Well, here we are. I hope you don’t think I enjoy this, because I don’t. Please, let’s not have to talk about this again?

I hope you don’t think I’m angry with you, but if you do, maybe this would help...

Sorry for the digression. This is a great breakfast and I think you’re really going to enjoy it and you should definitely read some of Matthew’s stuff because it’s really good. Come have breakfast with some alcoholics!
