The Modern Meeting

Adam starts and finishes the first of 14 jobs in 7 years. Jen returns to TMM and reminds everyone to stretch before walking 12 miles. Adam sits down with his sponsor Ken and his wife Kelly to discuss what recovery is like for the addict themselves and the ones we hurt the most. Also, we may have a name for the listeners. But probably not. 

Adam's last days in NYC. From CCD to Recovery, the guys talk Higher Power. Eddie sits down for an in-depth conversation about his recovery journey. Nine months clean from drugs and alcohol, he talks about how he has embraced the 12-steps. And it's the day after the Super Bowl, but thankfully it's now just another day (at a time) for Adam and Alex.    

Cheesesteaks and Improv Comedy cut into gambling time. Alex is a proud member of Bachelor Nation. Another Adam joins to talk about how his sports gambling addiction caused him to lose sight of his priorities and the value of money. Our Adam takes us back to February 2022 and reflects on how far he’s come as a major recovery milestone approaches. 

The Patriots lose and Adam gets let go. Alex continues his job search. The guys sit down with former Division 1 athlete and opioid addict Nate. A once promising baseball career derailed by injuries and addiction, Nate found recovery and then never left. Plus, the guys disclose some of their darkest moments while gambling in "The Bottom Three."

Adam's story picks back up in NYC. The guys answer a listener question about managing finances in recovery. Charles joins and shares his incredible journey from the streets to sobriety. Alex goes back to Jersey and is grateful Football Sundays look a lot different these days. 

Adam pauses his story to introduce a friend. The guys compare their Seamless bills (and levels of gluttony) from living in 2013 NYC. Bryan joins and talks free bonus bets, relapse, and recovery. Adam's passionate 2x4 is cut short by a possible paranormal encounter. 

Adam is on the hunt for action in NYC. The guys discuss how they want to better themselves in 2025. Lynn talks about going from "Patty Spaz" to 20+ years away from a bet - and how her rock bottom was so bad, that prison felt like the only possible way out.  

Adam spends New Year's Eve 2017 in Las Vegas. Alex throws his last pitch and it was NOT a strike. Clips from the archives include wise words from Ken and a questionable 3rd round pick in the Thanksgiving Draft. Heavy Breathing and Wishes for 2025 closes out the year.   

Bankruptcy is declared and the repo-man comes for the RAV4. Alex goes to the casino and Adam goes back to Clinton. Jim realizes he was still "living dirty” after 35 years clean. Plus, a painful Christmas story that Alex has never told anyone before.

Adam goes back to college and Alex comes across a high school project. Adam has his 2x4 of Truth at a car dealership. Jen continues her epic story of continued recovery from gambling.
