Podcasts, anyone?

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone else listens to podcasts on recovery. I have found them pretty motivating. I listen to them on my long drive to and from work, or when I’m cleaning around the house. Currently my top three favorites are:
The Recovery Elevator
The Bubble Hour
The Mental Illness Happy Hour
I just listened to “It’s a thinking disease not just a drinking disease” on the Bubble Hour. Reeaaally great one! Anyhow I was curious to see if anyone else listened to podcasts and what your thoughts were. :blush:

Lol… I’m really behind the times. I’d heard the word, but didn’t even know exactly what a podcast was until watching the Kevin Smith movie Tusk about 3 weeks ago.

HAH!! I barely discovered them about 2 months ago @alpine_1975 . My old ass is behind on these types of things. :joy_cat:

Where do we find these podcasts?

If you have an iPhone you can go to your podcast app that’s already on the phone. There’s also an app you can download called Overcast and you can search for these podcasts on there.

Found app for Android called Podcast Addict (oh, the irony) and it’s wonderful. Search engine keyword sobriety and it brings up tons of podcasts.

I’m listening to…

Sober Guy Radio
Sobriety Network
Real Sobriety
One Year No Beer (also have a closed Facebook group)

As for where to get podcasts, I use an Android app called pocket casts, it cost a couple of £ and has a great search engine for pod casts. I usually listen to one when I take the dog a walk or doing housework.

I love to listen to HOME podcast.
It’s mostly centered around alcohol and very female focused, but it’s my favorite. If you scroll down in the list there’s quite a few episodes that relate to early sobriety.
I started listening to those before I really quit. They were incredibly helpful.
Also , not related to sobriety buy still awesome is the Robcast by Rob Bell. He’s wonderful

I do, but its more of history of Rome, methaphisic, social behavior; whatever it is my husband is listening to lol he is the one that loves podcasts and I just get to listen to them before going to bed, yep, they are my bednight stories :wink:
