Trudge Report

Join the trudge crew this week for a special Independence Day episode. First, we go around the horn and update on our travels and how our 4th of July was and what we did. Next the boys talk about the greatest country in the world, Murica, why we love it, and what makes it so special. 

The recovery segment brings a somewhat controversial title in “relapse prevention”, but the boys delve into the steps and mindset that can and should be taken into recovery to avoid relapse. It may be part of some people's journey but it does not have to be.

Tune in this week as we all talk about our favorite and least favorite vacations. From Greg and Bill traveling abroad, to concerts at the Gorge, and Caribbean cruises, hear some great stories and adventures along with maybe just a few mishaps.

In our recovery segment we talk about the importance of not only making our amends, but living those out in our daily lives as the days, months, and years go by. A simple apology won't do. The people we have hurt need to see real sustained change. We also talk about how vital it is for us to live these principles in every area of our lives, from the big to the small things.

Join three out of the four guys this week for Trudge Report. Bill is at a two-day concert and not in attendance but he may or may not be calling in. Corey, Greg, and Shawn do a quick around the horn of how their week has been and happy to be back at the regularly scheduled time and day for recording. Corey tells us all why he is in the state of Minnesota for the next few weeks with a good friend of his and of our program. Shawn gives a quick recap of his golf trip at Pinehurst, NC and Southern Pines, NC, and Santee, SC over the past week.

Greg kicks it off with a classic diatribe about homeowners associations. He tells some funny stories he found on the internet of HOA escapades. But to be fair he talks about how they can also be a good thing, not just the negative. Corey gives us his perspective as he was professionally involved with HOAs for many years as he did the bookkeeping for different neighborhoods and associations at a previous job.

We finish the episode with “what sobriety means to us." We go around and share some of our personal experiences on physical sobriety and how we were taught by our mentors and old timers when we entered recovery. We possibly piss some listeners off, and that is okay. We are speaking our minds and from our hearts on things we truly believe in to our core. We possibly debunk some recovery myths and shoot our listeners straight when it comes to complete sobriety, physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Join the boys this week on Trudge Report as Corey spends most of the episode silent as he tries to recoup some ticket money on his phone. We restart the NBA playoffs discussion as we make some finals predictions and analysis as well as some talk on women's sports and the current superstars they have. 

Bill brings a great topic about Artificial Intelligence to the table and we have a discussion on the pros and cons of this emerged science. How will this affect jobs, our children, and society as a whole? How is our country dealing with it compared to other countries? 

Juxtaposing the AI debate, we finish the episode on how we call “disconnect and unleash ourselves" from social media and technology in general. Each of us share our tips and best practices for putting down the phone and being with friends, family, and God one on one. What is really important to us and in our lives?

First a special shout out to our wonderful producer Miss Janine Stella for allowing us to come to her studio and record.

Gather with the guys on Trudge Report this week as we come to you live from an actual recording studio in South Florida where we are all together in person for the first time to shoot an episode. Watch us as we fumble around for the first few minutes, as we settle in and talk about the upcoming Dave Matthews concert that we are all going to tonight. We have a quick recap on some more Ticketmaster happenings. We prep Bill for his first DMB concert ever. Then we recount some of the more humorous stories from our past and how each of us met each other and what our initial thoughts on each of us was. We all pay special tribute to the village mentality and how what we can do together we could never do alone.

Join the boys this week on Trudge  Report as we discuss the agricultural giant, Monsanto, and their inexcusable shortcomings over the decades. From Agent Orange, toxic chemicals, and GMOs; we discuss what has made them very rich and a lot of people very sick and very poor. We discuss some of what makes America one of the most obese countries in the world along with some healthy living and eating habits to combat these trends.

During the "On The Beam" segment,  Corey brings up the topic of spiritual anonymity and what that means. Each one of us discuss our interpretation of it and how we live and evolve in today's society, with everything being online and at the hands of a social media platform. We finalize the discussion with some quotes from some of our favorite literature and how we can all be better and do better while teaching the next generation in recovery.

This week on Trudge Report the boys fly solo without Corey, as he is at a concert. His attempts to call in were not successful. Greg gets us deep into the Boeing controversy/conspiracy that is currently going on. He gives a good bit of background and why Boeing is in hot water to begin with. From its meteoric rise to its recent nosedive in public confidence. Bill tag teams and gives some much-needed wider perspective on Boeing and corporate greed across the country.  From the haunting tale of whistleblowers and the relentless pursuit of profit that overshadows safety. Buckle up, the seat belt sign is now on; it’s a flight through the complex airspace where corporate giants roam.

We make a seamless transition into Mother's day. We pay tribute and share our gratitude for the maternal figures in our lives, whether it be our spouses, girlfriends, mothers, or extended family. We recognize the strength of these women and just who they are for us and what they stand for.

Join the boys this week on the Trudge Report as we discuss more NBA playoffs and Patrick Beverly's antics. Corey experiencing single dad life. Bill shares his Reese's Peanut Butter birthday cake coma, not once, but twice. Shawn talks about his mother and wife's skydiving excursion. 

Get fired up as Corey leads a spirited discussion on Ticketmaster's pricing practices, offering his insights. The boys talk about some possible solutions and Corey praises some of the bands and groups that are pushing back and taking a stand for these exorbitant ticket prices. To close out this segment the guys share their first concert going experience as well as their favorite/most memorable as the summer concert season kicks in. 

In our final segment, we explore the application of spiritual principles beyond our physical addictions in our homes, occupations, and affairs. We finish by talking about how we carry the life-saving message of hope and recovery to those in need once we have had our own personal spiritual awakenings.
