I dreamt that you were twisting through seven suns of gold and the gypsy was insisting

that story must be told I came two in the morning but I took it as a warning That you might be a treasure

I could touch but never hold

Hello, everybody.

Welcome to the Soberful podcast.

I am Veronica Valley.

And I am Chip Summers.

And this is our 100th episode. Whoa. Amazing. Isn't that crazy? When we started this, I never thought we'd get a hundred of them done. No, it's crazy. It's great. So we started this. It was over a couple of years ago. What did you think when I messaged you and said, do you want to do a podcast

with me? Honestly. Oh, I was really excited. I was really pleased. Yeah, really. It caught me at a

perfect time. I thought that would be really good. But I didn't think it would get more than about 200

listeners. But I did think it was a really good idea. I was really excited.

Yeah. No, really excited. So we've had close towards 300,000 downloads overall.

Yeah, see, now that is not what I thought we would be in for. And what's been great for me is that I've

heard so many people say, oh my God, I listen to your podcasts and

they're really helpful or I gave them to a newcomer and they were really pleased. It was a real

good resource for them to listen to. It really seems to have been so much more kind of useful

to the recovering community than I thought it would be for a start, given

my normal sort of self-esteem about these things. But I think I've been really proud of this.

And if this is one of the last things I do in my career, I will be really, really proud to have

had this as my sort of the last thing I do because I will be retiring

at some point I guess but if this is the last thing I do I feel really proud to be going

out on this so yeah and it will stay forever yeah yeah I had no idea how it was going to go either
