Welcome to You Are Not Alone a Recovery podcast. My name is Matt Jay, along with Steve,

known John tonight. I'll tell you a little bit about that. We're here to share our experience,

strength, and hope recovering from addiction. You can contact the show at our website,

not alone recovery.com. Trying to get out there on Instagram and do a lot more

at Not Alone Pod on Instagram. That's right. Say social media-wise, we're the most active.

You can leave a voicemail or a text at 860-281-230.0. And we don't speak for any 12-step group,

but we do try to remain anonymous. Steve, what's going on?

Hey, Matt, good evening to you. No, just same-all, same-o, same-o.

Yeah, John is out with our buddy Jim doing a great, great 12-step thing and something that I'm

proud of. Our buddy, Jim, who taught me a lot in early sobriety, taught me how to be,

uh, to do service work, to be a greeter to do coffee because I was very shy. And Jim said,

you know, I'm a shy guy too. So I did coffee. I did greeter and I got to meet everybody.

And I'm like, you know what? I'm going to do that too.

And I met a lot of people because I stood out in the door and I gave hugs and gave handshake.

So he's laid up for a few weeks. So we're bringing meetings to him. That's the thing we do.

Yeah, it's going to be nice. uh got the call from our buddy edson tonight

and he was checking to see if i can go and i said no i'm gonna i'm gonna do the podcast with you

for the next couple weeks and then uh yeah i'll head out to see jim and in like uh two weeks or

three weeks from now and see how he's doing but uh yeah we like to do that i've done that
