About this listen

Hi! I am Austin and I'm an alcoholic. It seems as if I have gone dry drunk and want to remedy that. This podcast is for anyone recovery curious, in recovery or has a family member that has been in recovery.


Alcoholism is a brutal thing, one thing that I have learned in the decade plus since being on the road to recovery is that everyone's journey is different. How they arrived, their version of rock bottom, the volume, who and how. It all is individual to the individual. For me, the quitting came easy. I am still sober and am proud. I figure maybe someone out there could use some of my insights.


I intend for this to be an aid for those maybe in need, a voice of a stranger encouraging you on your way. This is a real podcast made by a real person who has gone through a real experience with alcohol.
