Summary

This is the third part of a pretty interesting topic based workshop series presented by 10 different AA members all with a good bit of sobriety. This is a Montclair Group Workshop presented in 2009. Part 3 of 15. Part three is on the topic of - Now What presented by Pete M, he does a great job talking about understanding step two. There is some Q and A at the end of Petes speak and the questions were impossible to hear, so I cut out the dead air and you hear answers but not questions. Tomorrow Part 3: Pete M - Now What? Step 2. If you have any AA or Al-Anon event coming up let me know I am happy to help get the word out. https://scast.us/event Email: sobercast@gmail.com Support Sober Cast: https://sobercast.com/donate AA Event List: https://scast.us/event If you have an AA roundup, retreat, convention or workshop coming up, we would be happy to give you a shout out here on the podcast and list the event on the Sober Cast website.
