Summary

I was thinking of adding a forum or discord so folks can discuss the speaks or whatever sober related. It would be private, I want to know if you would be into that? I put a one question survey up to get your opinion and I would be very grateful. https://scast.us/discuss (Up till after the weekend). Joe T got sober in 2015, and he is sharing some of his story at the Depth and Weight Speaker Group held in Buffalo New York, this meeting is from September of 2022.
