This week on The Living Clean Podcast, we’re honored to welcome back a familiar voice and a true force in recovery: Jimmy S. from Las Vegas, Nevada. Clean since November 2, 1984, Jimmy is no stranger to our listeners—he first joined us during the “Conscious Contact” episode, where he was the ninth person to share.

Recently, we had the privilege of hearing Jimmy speak as a main speaker at NCCNA in Sacramento, and he lit the room up with his presence and message. Jimmy isn’t just an incredible storyteller—he’s one of those rare people who makes you feel like you’re the only person in the world when you’re talking to him. Genuine, grounded, and full of heart.

We’re beyond grateful to have him on the podcast again. He’s the kind of dude you don’t forget. Hope y’all enjoy this one.

In this episode, we dive into the current NA Issue Discussion Topic (IDT): Reimagining and Revitalizing Service Committees. Recorded live from our workshop-style session, we explore how the pandemic permanently changed how we serve and how our service structures are (or aren’t) keeping up.

Through large-group inventory, small-group brainstorms, and action planning, we unpack what’s working, what’s not, and what the Fellowship can do to move from ideas to meaningful change. Topics include:

• Making service more attractive and accessible
• Addressing structural barriers in local service
• Mentorship, planning, and scanning in action
• Real stories and real solutions from members in the trenches

This isn’t just theory—it’s a practical guide to refreshing our commitment to carrying the message. Whether your area is struggling or thriving, there’s something here to spark your next step in service.

This week’s episode is a special one. We’re featuring “The Point” from page 165 of the Basic Text — and we’re honored to have Roland W., the author of the story, join us for a conversation.

We start the episode with EJ narrating “The Point,” bringing the story to life before diving into a powerful discussion with Roland. Together, we explore the story behind the story — the pain, the redemption, and the example of what Roland’s sponsor called “God showing off.”

This is one you don’t want to miss.
