Welcome to Episode XX of Breakfast with an Alcoholic!

I want what he’s got.

Surely, you remember Jane from Episode 9!

The big news is that Jane is going to start doing interviews on Breakfast with an Alcoholic and I’m very excited about that. In fact, I believe her debut effort will be Episode XXI. To the extent there was an idea behind this other than finding a way to more thoroughly insinuate pancakes into my life, it was to try and provide a set of more accessible and maybe light-hearted conversations about addiction and recovery and how we got sober. I think I have the middle-aged white guy perspective covered pretty well and thought bringing Jane to the mix would add a lot!

I’m not just asking for myself anymore.

In our breakfast, we catch up, share some pet peeves about AA Meetings, and there’s even an Alcoholic Lightning Round practice session. I’ve known Jane for a little while and see her at meetings. What has impressed me from the very start was how evolved and thoughtful her views were, even though she had only a few months at the time. I’m still blown away when I think about what it took for her to walk down the stairs to the 79th Street Workshop alone on that January night Jane is one dynamic alcoholic and she’s already helping a lot of people. Pour yourself a cup of coffee and join us.
