Summary
Allan got sober while in the military, three days before his 39th birthday. He tells Don and Sam that he was free from alcohol after a profound spiritual experience, but had to work the spiritual probram to be free of other baggage. You can hear more from Allan on the Military Audio Project — aa.org/military — under Veteran, Allan W., Royal Canadian Navy Veteran. Allan, Don and Sam answer an Ask it Basket question from Luke on sponsorship. In Using the Traditions in our Lives Kaitlin, David and Nora share on Tradition Four, "Each group should be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or A.A. as a whole." Danica shares about her love for Grapevine. While we provide the podcast at no charge, we do have expenses.
