MENGENAI EPISOD INI
Howard L reads Chapter One, Bill's Story, from the Big Book of “Alcoholics Anonymous” first published in 1939.
Please share it with anyone you know who has the desire to stop drinking. It may be the only version of the Big Book they ever hear!
If you’ve enjoyed the Big Book Podcast, have a listen to Lost Stories of the Big Book, 30 Original Stories Missing from the 3rd and 4th Editions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It’s an engaging audiobook I narrated to bring these stories to life for AA members who’ve never seen them. These timeless testimonials were originally cut to make room for newer stories in the 3rd and 4th Editions. But their vitally important messages of hope are as meaningful today as when they were first published. Many listeners will hear these stories for the first time. Lost Stories of the Big Book is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes. It’s also available as a Kindle book and in Paperback from Amazon.
And check out my AA Recovery Interviews podcast where Alcoholics Anonymous members from around the world share their extraordinary stories of experience, strength, and hope. There are over 150 awesome interviews in this podcast series, that you can enjoy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all other podcasts apps. You can also listen at: aarecoveryinterviews.com .

Written by Bill G., who got sober in 1945, this story runs the gamut from being a successful business man to literally being a bum on the street, pawning his shoes, living under a bridge, and drinking Sterno. As bottoms go, it's hard to imagine one going much lower.
As graphic and engaging a ...
“Jim’s Story” was written by Dr. Jim S., a physician in Washington D.C., who is credited with founding the first black AA group. While the struggles of starting that group are well-noted in the story, its importance as an AA milestone was recognized by AA co-founder Bill W. in the book “Alcohol ...
“The Prisoner Freed” was printed only in the Second and Third Editions, so it will be heard for the first time by those who’ve otherwise been raised on the Fourth Editions alone.
