First thing, apology to those of you that expected to hear Tom Tuesday last week and it did not happen, that was a scheduling error on my part. Tom and Sandy B are sharing the podium on the topic of AA Structure Primary Purpose History. No information about where or when this was recorded, you can expect me to say that a lot in this series. Couple of tech notes this ends abruptly but they were clearly wrapping up. The questions in the Q&A were hard to hear, I did manage to amplify them but they will sound a little hollow.  Tom has long been a highly regarded speaker in AA.

I try to be a week or more ahead when it comes to scheduling the episodes, that way if life gets in the way Im not worried about something for tomorrow. well this week life got in the way and Im adding this episode a few hours before it publishes. That said as I was checking the podcast email right before I started working to get an episode uploaded up for you, and had a listener submission that was recorded just last week.  I dont have a great deal of information about it other than this is Brooke, she has 15 months sober and is telling her story at a meeting called G2. I do also have a little request for you out there, it is a bit difficult to come across speaker meetings by folks that have 1-3 years sober and I would really like to feature more of them. So... if you have some recordings of people in the earlier years of sobriety please visit https://sobercast.com, look for the "upload a speaker" link and pass them along. I would be grateful.
