0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Sobercast, where we provide A.A. Speaker meetings and workshops in podcast format. |
0:12.6 | We're an ad-free podcast, and if you enjoy listening, please help us be self-supporting by visiting Sobercast.com, look for the link, and drop a dollar or two into our virtual |

0:27.1 | Good evening, everyone. Welcome to the Road to Recovery Group of Alcoholics Anonymous. My name is Mike, |
0:32.4 | and I am an alcoholic. Could everyone please turn off your mobile phones or switch them to a silent profile, please try to keep disruptions to a minimum? |

1:42.3 | We need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio and television. |
1:47.0 | This tradition is a constant reminder that personal ambition has no place in AA. |

2:01.9 | anonymity of our members at the public level. The format of tonight's meeting will be |
2:07.3 | three ten-minute speakers, followed by a fourth speaker until approximately 8.30. The meeting |
