RMA-Episode 34 Show Notes:
Another week has gone by and Alcohol is still S**t. Mike and Nat continue their deep dive into Alcohol is S**t, the seminal work penned by the founder of the Recovery Elevator podcast and architect of the Cafe RE movement, Paul Churchill.
Also, Mike gets interviewed by Annie Grace. How did THAT go?
Are you your thoughts? Is there a way to silence the self-criticism and endless stream of intrusive thoughts that haunt your daily existence? Can you recover without doing the internal work? Listen and find out!
Recovery In The News this week asks why the beer has gone to the dogs, and The Week in Weird is a tale of raptors on the loose in Florida. Don’t miss it!
All this, plus the week in review, on a mindful, self-aware, bone-broth NA beer flavored episode of Recovery in the Middle Ages

The Guys Discuss "Alcohol is Shi!t" by Paul Churchill - Part 1
Friday Apr 16, 2021
Friday Apr 16, 2021
RMA-Episode 33 Show Notes:
Alcohol is S**t. You know it, I know it, and Paul Churchill knows it so well he wrote a book about it. This week Mike and Nat start their deep dive into Alcohol is S**t, the seminal work penned by the founder of the Recovery Elevator podcast and architect of the Cafe RE movement. This week the guys lay the groundwork by discussing the first half of the book, deconstructing Paul’s theory on the origin of addiction. Genetics, environment, dopamine and happy rats are all on the menu.
Recovery In The News this week takes a look at the Moderation Management program and asks, “why bother?”
All this, plus the week in weird, and the week in review, on a moderately successful, genetically predisposed, environmentally influenced episode of Recovery in the Middle Ages

RMA-Episode 31 Show Notes:
This week on a special episode of Get Smart with Erin Moore, we continue our discussion of the dark underbelly of the recovery industry. Erin has some first-hand experience with body brokers and other shady rehab practices and she shares her story with us. What happens when you take an industry designed to help people get back on their feet, and inject the potential to make massive profits off addicts? Hint: nothing good.
Plus, Mike puts the final touches on his vacation preparations and Nat keeps shedding the pounds. When should you remain anonymous and when should you burn the ships?
We also read a positive review, and engage in the usual nonsense; the weekly round-up, Recovery in the News, (Should you let your kids have alcohol?), and the Week in Weird, (Don’t drive your motorcycle around UFOs), on a high-traffic, profit-driven, only somewhat anonymous episode of Recovery in the Middle Ages.

RMA-Episode 30 Show Notes:
Somebody wants your body and they’re willing to pay for it! This week on RMA, Mike and Nat dive deep into the seedy side of the recovery industry, and the multi-million-dollar profits to be made funnelling addicts to treatment centers. The guys do an in-depth review of the new movie Body Brokers and set the table for a compelling discussion next week with Erin Moore.
We also finish Jeff’s story, and engage in the usual nonsense; the weekly round-up, Recovery in the News, (why are people mad at the Sober-Curious movement?), and the Week in Weird, (Amityville Horror murderer dies in prison), on a golden yellow, super-mellow, cinematic episode pof Recovery in the Middle Ages.
