THIS IS THE AUDIO-ONLY PODCAST VERSION OF A VIDEO PREVIOUSLY UPLOADED TO THE BAT COUNTRY ALCOHOLISM AND SOBRIETY YOUTUBE CHANNEL

In this video, I share a very bad experience I had in Piccadilly Train Station as a result of my drinking, and try to explain why your drinking might be the same as mine even if you don't think it's as bad.

THIS IS THE AUDIO-ONLY PODCAST VERSION OF A VIDEO PREVIOUSLY UPLOADED TO THE BAT COUNTRY YOUTUBE CHANNEL.

This podcast is for people who want to go to AA but are "put off by all the God stuff."

I'm an atheist, and AA has helped me in the past. So how did I make it work for me?

=======

In 1955, Dr. Harris Isbell published a medical paper entitled "An Experimental Study Of The Etiology of Rum Fits and Delirium Tremens."

On the face of it, the report simply described an investigation into alcohol withdrawal. The findings still inform treatment for alcohol addiction today.

But look beneath the surface, and you find a legacy of human experimentation, sinister medical institutions, and CIA money.

Sounds like conspiracy theory nonsense, right? It isn't. And it's very scary.

This episode of Bat Country is a bit of a change of pace from the norm, and I'll be returning to the normal, more personal style videos now. But this was so interesting I just HAD to talk about it.

As always, good luck out there.
