November 09, 2018 Leaving the Cult of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) - Part 1
Alcoholics Anonymous is the most widely accepted and protected cult on the planet!
In this podcast Mark and Michelle talk about their experiences being born into AA families and then fulfilling the dire predictions that they would become "alcoholics". From attending thousands of meetings, to forming their own AA groups and holding service positions in their district and area, Mark and Michelle got a unique perspective on the inner workings of AA, and how those who question the dogma are treated.

October 12, 2018 We're Not Giving You Permission to Keep Getting Wasted
