This week we have... A New Year with Mike and Bill! Same old stuff, different year. Mike started out with his reading and it was about blame and hiding. We were always good at that before we got sober and it could be an easy trap to fall back into.…

"The park is closed, the moose out from should have told you." The great John Candy from the movie, Vacation. But seriously, we are having an issue with our recording studio and apparently they have an issue with their server. The episode for this week is recorded, but Zencastr needs…
