After a year-long absence from the microphone, Joseph returns to discuss his return to supporting the MTAD Wagoneers in their recovery from alcohol dependency.

It's a long rode of recovery from addiction, but together, we can get through it and find out what is on the other side.

MTAD is a podcast exploring how there can be more to us than addiction, how can we all be More Than A Drunk? I strive to support the Wagoneers in every way I can. If you need a little pick-me-up privately, shoot me an email. Each week I will look at dependency and, also, look beyond that which has defined us for so long and seek what lies beyond alcoholism.
