In this episode, we dive into Part One of “More About Alcoholism” from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. This chapter hits hard — it forces us to confront the delusion that so many of us hold onto: that somehow, someday, we’ll be able to control and enjoy our drinking.

We break down the stories and examples laid out in this section, and we talk honestly about how dangerous that kind of thinking can be. If you’ve ever thought, “Maybe this time it’ll be different…” — this one’s for you. Whether you’re in recovery, just starting your journey, or supporting someone who’s struggling, this chapter brings powerful clarity.

Part two is coming soon — but for now, we dig into what makes this section so real, so relatable, and so necessary.
