This week we have one of our fantastic community members Rich Gross joining us on Over The Influence all the way from Tennessee!

We hear some stories from Rich's time in the army and how that influenced his former drinking habits, all the way through to what he's up to now as a part of our sober community. 

He also gets a lesson in British lingo from his mates across the pond.

Thanks so much to Rich for taking the time to talk to us, congrats on your sobriety and we're so glad to have you on board!
