Guess who? Yep, it's Mike and Bill again, back at it.Mike started out with his reading and it was about being selfish in this thing we do and trying to do our best. Not for anyone else, but because it's the right thing to do. We had a pretty good talk about it.We got interactive with a thing, then chatted about Dennis Eckersley, falling down, rock 'n' roll life, anger, stubbornness, AI stuff, officers and drugs, DUI arrests and not buying us a coffee. And a great piece of advice. Don't Drive On The Tracks.Enjoy the episode.Visit usPodcast www.sobernotmature.comStore www.sobernotmatureshop.comHobo www.themoderndayhobo.com
We are back at it and as Mike said in the episode, he is at about 80% of his normal. It will make sense when you listen.Mike started off with his reading and it was about friends and foes and also living by certain values and principals. Are we setting a good example, and are we trying to make the world a better place? It was a good conversation.We received a couple of messages and read those, then we talked about the 4th Step, Val Kilmer, trying to get things before we are ready, looking outward rather than inward, trusting the process and our weekend plans.Oh and we did talk about gargling snake sperm. It's a must listen.Enjoy the episode. Visit usPodcast www.sobernotmature.comStore www.sobernotmatureshop.com
This week we have Bill (sort of healthy) and Mike (not healthy at all) for a new week of fun and excitement. And possibly the shortest episode in a couple of years, but for good reason.Mike started out with his reading and it was about faith and obedience, living a new life and finally being givers and not always takers. We could both relate to all of it and it was a good conversation.Then we chatted about anniversaries, birthday parties, being a part of, alcohol "challenges," drinking culture or excuses, dreams, spiritual principles and some rock and roll. And that was that.Enjoy the episode.Visit usPodcast www.sobernotmature.comStore www.sobernotmatureshop.com

That was almost 2 years ago, and we have all come a long way. Mike and I have become Sober Curators, Alysse has jumped into the podcast arena and I think we had some things to talk about.

This week we are back and ready to rock your socks off. Well, that may be a bit overstated, but it's Mike and Bill again.Mike started off with his reading and it was about that power greater than us, support and surrender. An important part of this process and we had a great conversation. We dove into Step 3 for a little bit, talked about pride, the still suffering, tolerance, free will, a good customer experience and being socially awkward.We wrapped up with a little rock talk.Enjoy the episode.

Yes, it's the Third Anniversary Spectacular and it is the same old "stuff," different day.Mike started off with his reading and it was about learning, keeping an open mind and freedom. Things that we cherish today, but had no clue about in our drinking days. It was a good conversation.We chatted about our the 3 years that we have been doing this podcast and some of the changes along the way. We also received a gift from a listener and we gave him a well deserved shout out.Then it was H.A.L.T., more about atheism, the grandson, ailments, our actions while out in the world, water main breaks and some rock 'n' roll.And Mike had a nice story about a guy that led at his home group. The person is practicing these principles and it's a great thing to see.Enjoy the episode.Visit usPodcast www.sobernotmature.comStore www.sobernotmatureshop.com
This week we have Alex Schotten. The author of “I learned how to love from Heroin” (Available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble)Alex joined us to talk about his journey, how he entered into recovery and how he ended up turning a passion of his into a book. From his childhood in Appleton, Wisconsin, to a life that landed him in prison, Alex has experienced a lot in his 30 years.There was not a shortage of things for us to talk about and we enjoyed our time.

It's the season finale, Valentines Day Spectacular, with your pals, Mike and Bill. Mike started out with his reading and it was appropriately about love. We used to love things that were bad for us, but now we have learned to be loving, rather than look for love. It's a weird concept for many of us, but we had a good talk about it.We have a guest coming up next week and he has a book that we will talk about with him. It was also featured on The Sober Curator.Then it was how many f*cks, truck driving, Dr. Sarah and another podcast, a book review, Demi Moore, scissoring, The Gulf of whatever and an article about bad drivers.On a sad note, a buddy of ours from Cleveland died this week. He was one of us, and he is leaving behind the hurt and pain that is expected when we don't do the work that we need to do.Enjoy the episode.

Hey everyone! It's Mike and Bill again. Back at it with an all new, fun filled episode.Mike started out with his reading and it was about doing. Not sitting around, not wasting time, but taking the action and getting things done. It's how we need to live our lives today and it was a good conversation.We chatted about having conscious contact, what we didn't know then, Nigerian dwarf goats, present challenges, being told what we need to hear, our past unnatural lives, a DUI story and a little line from Josh Brolin.We also received a handful of emails from new listeners that we read. It was pretty cool and very humbling. We are grateful for all of you.Enjoy the episode.Visit usPodcast www.sobernotmature.comStore www.sobernotmatureshop.com
This week it's us! You know, Mike and Bill, back with you for another fun filled episode.
Mike started with his reading and it was about luck and the idea of being lucky. We don't agree with the idea of luck, but instead feel that we create an outcome, based on the choices we make and the actions that we take. It was a good conversation.
We apparently have some new listeners, and we chatted about that.
Then on to Surgeon General warnings, a little more about the Van Halen brothers, areas of our program that need work, dealing with resentments, a horrible diet and a drunk teacher.
We also talked about worrying about future events. It's pointless.

This week, Mike and Bill are at it again. Sobriety and nonsense, together in perfect harmony.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about this life that we have today. When we got sober, we needed to drop whatever we thought we had planned and let this new way of life happen. It can be hard to navigate at times, but well worth it. We had a good talk.
Then we continued with family, being lucky versus fortunate, acting and reacting in a sober way, Joe and Charlie, disliking certain people (how do we deal with that), the hard Steps and asking for help.
And Mike helped Bill out with a car dilemma.

The title comes up in the episode and it will make sense when you hear it. Just us having some laughs along the way.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about gifts. Recovery is a gift and the life that we get to enjoy when we do the work is a gift. It was a good conversation.
Mr. Baseball, Bob Uecker, died this week and we talked about that. He was a good dude and had a positive effect on millions of people during his life. He will be missed.
We chatted about hiking fails, how we act based on our childhood, fear, time and energy, getting better after getting sober, learning from our mistakes, making someone else's day go better and a list from the internet.
Mike even talked about jury duty.

This week we have a whole lot of nonsense, with some sobriety sprinkled in. Yep, it's Mike and Bill this week.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about believing. We are not told "what" to believe, but "how" to believe and that is a wonderful thing. We had a good talk about it.
Then it was stories from Albuquerque, we talked about relapse, what motivates us, humility, shame, Dr. Seuss and Schoolhouse Rock, the We of the program, DUI statistics and Alex Van Halen.
Oh yeah, and a quick story about a blown out boob.

Mike and Bill are back again and starting off the New Year right, with the same old stuff. Same guys, same podcast, different calendar.
Mike started off with his reading and it was based on The Serenity Prayer. A simple prayer and a simple message. Acceptance is what it is all about and we had a nice conversation.
Then we chatted about the first step, "good" years and "bad" years, a listener comment (vagina vitamins), what if, staying positive, Van Halen and Van Hagar, being of service, spotting the winners and Ron Livingston.
We even talked a bit about Monica Lewinsky.

This week, Mike and Bill are back for more fun and excitement. The post Holiday Special or whatever.
Mike started with his reading and it was about the pursuit of happiness and the fact that many people put a price tag on that. We always have opinions about things like that and it was a good conversation.
What was next? Vagina vitamins, enjoying life, AA at a football game, repetitiveness in recovery, a new book, storage woes, what do we deserve and how do we treat ourselves.
And something about monkeys and poop.

This week we have the sort of Holiday Edition of the podcast. Or is it the anti Holiday Edition?
Mike started out with his reading and it was about how to deal with the Holidays as people in recovery. Or quite honestly, on any day. There are simple things that we need to do every day to stay sober and that is what we talked about. It was a good conversation.
Then we talked about wild meat, being part of problem, what have we done good this week, scary feelings, overcoming obstacles and learning from them and normies.
There was a also story about drug seeking behavior.

This week it's your jovial friends, Mike and Bill. Back with some more fun and sober stuff.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about responsibility. Mike heard a lead this week that made him think of this topic and it was a good conversation.
Then we got down to business. We talked about The Fellowship, not wanting help from a higher power, do we set a good example, the quality of our sobriety, and being old.
We also brought some news stories to the table. A runaway husband and perfume that smells like a dive bar. Yes, you read that correctly.

This week Mike and Bill are back with more nonsense and a few things that may amuse you. Maybe even a couple of words of wisdom? Don't hold your breath.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about tough days and tough moments. What do we do and how do we act? Mike was able to add some insight to this, based on his personal feelings this week.
We talked about some podcast stats, Rosie O'Donnell's daughter, setting standards, wanting what we have, staying sober versus living sober, spiritual awakenings, harboring thoughts, sinful cities and wicked porn.
And stupid attorneys.

This week we have our Gratitude Episode! And it's the 3rd Annual Gratitude Episode. (that makes it sound more special)
Mike started off with his reading and as you may have guessed, it's about gratitude. It talked about not always appreciating what we have and always wanting more, rather than simply enjoying what we have and enjoying the moments. We had a good conversation.
Then on to a variety of topics, such as throbbing treasures, The Steps, perfectionism, Al Pacino, is addiction hereditary, talking too much, are we working a good program, social anxiety, Billy Bob Thornton and finally an article about chickens and cocaine.
Could there be more? Possibly, but you will have to listen and find out.

This week, get ready to be down with the sickness. Mike wasn't feeling 100%, but we know that our feelings don't matter.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about how we build and sustain this new life. We need a foundation and it needs to be solid before we can help others build a new life. It was a good talk.
Our friend Gary celebrated 7 years sober this week, so congrats to him!
We got into a number of topics this week, including drinking differently than others (or better), The Promises, humility, pride, the bottom and acts of charity.
And a shameless plug for a book that Bill wrote. "Modern Day Hobo: A Guide To Living The Airbnb Life." Check out our website and go to the Sponsors Page for more information.
Yep. I think that's it.

Woohoo! It's Mike and Bill again. Back for more nonsense this week.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about love. Yes, love. The ability for us to actually know love, experience it and offer it to others. And the fact that it shows us that there are powers out there that are greater than us. It was a good talk.
Then we chatted about preparing for the Holidays and staying sober, a sober get together, being around drunk people, criticism and judging (it can be a good thing), sensitivity, feelings, a fun insult and arrest stories.
And we shared a news story about a hiker that tried to blame a bear for a guys death. There were a few flaws in his plan and we had some fun with it.

This week we showed up and did the work. Yes, it's Mike and Bill again this week, and join us next week for a big time guest!
Mike started off with his reading and it was about fear and how it used to rule our lives. Today, we can recognize the fear, deal with it in a healthy way and also be there to help others. It was a good conversation.
Then we talked about opinions, beeps, other podcasts, drunk animals, mistakes as gifts, focus, being stagnant, SAD and a little bit about IHOP.
Oh, and a story about a goat. Don't worry, it will make sense.

Guess who's back? Yep, back again. Mike and Bill for another fun filled episode.
Mike started out with his reading and it was about freedom, learning and being open to new ideas. It was a really good reading and made for a great conversation.
Then we were all over the place again. We talked about football, Halloween, the top states for alcohol consumption, internet issues, turn signals, Marc Maron with Keith Urban and Robert Patrick, the 11th Step (we have it all figured out now), lies, excuses, tolerance and understanding.
It was a lot, but we tried to make sense of it all. Or maybe we just had some fun doing it.

It's Mike and Bill this week, bringing you something. What are we bringing you? Listen and find out.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about choosing the people in our lives. Those we spend time with and those we trust. It was a really good conversation.
We had a couple of anniversaries and a birthday to acknowledge, then we chatted about a front man that passed, some travel talk, taking versus receiving, doing The Steps (again) and we even talked a little bit about The Beatles.
And somehow we talked about can openers and vodka. Just listen, it will make sense.

Yep, it's Mike and Bill again this week. We apparently had plenty to talk about, so buckle up.
Mike started with his reading and it was about those that came before us, how we were taught and the responsibility that we have to teach this thing to others. We have had some really great teachers since we got sober and it was a good conversation.
The dad of one of our good friends died this week and we chatted about that. His dad was sober, lived a good life and better yet, died on his own terms. Death is never fun or rosy, but when you have a life well lived, what more can we ask for?
Then there was a travel story, some baseball, stubbornness, therapy and some other muck (the episode title).

Mike started off with his reading and it was about this thing of ours. This disease that we have and how we perceive it. Do we complain or do we show gratitude? It was a good topic and a great conversation.
Then there were a couple of birthdays to acknowledge, baseball, rodents, Marc Maron, exterminators, The Steps, freedom, ego, some more about gratitude and finally good days versus bad days.

Mike started out with his reading and it was about hope and courage. In our active days, we had no hope or courage but today, we get to experience it in a whole new way. It was a good conversation.
Then we chatted about the 10th Step, Moon Zappa, an extreme DUI, having a void in sobriety, wanting to do it all on our own, spiritual experiences and improving our recovery.

This week it's back to the guys in the picture. Yep, it's Mike and Bill this week.
Mike started off with his reading and it was a simple one, but very important to us. Keeping out of our own heads, not focusing on ourselves and accomplishing that by helping others. That should be an easy thing to do, but it takes work. It was a good conversation.
Then we were all over the place. Dr. Sarah wrap up, a podcast and an audio book, a rock 'n' roll show, baby mamas, leading and following, a creepy story, caffeine withdrawal, always and never, things that make us happy and road rage.
We also found out last week that a buddy of ours died. He was at The Keating Center when we were, back in 2010 and he will be missed.

This week it's the comfort and familiarity that can only be brought to you by Mike and Bill.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about kindness. The idea that rude people are the strong ones gets smashed and living a life of kindness is what we strive for. It was a great conversation.
We talked about our language and apparently we are fans of the "F" word. Guess how many we gave last week.
Our search results, Dr. Drew again, a strange encounter at a rest area, making amends, learning to pray and being alone versus being lonely.
We also did a wrap up on Mike's radio gig last week.

Mike started out with his reading and it was about happiness and joy. The pursuit of it by us and the happiness and joy that we bring to others when we do the work. It was a good conversation.
We touched a little bit on the Holiday Weekend, but as you all know, it's our opinion that it's just another day on the calendar. If you need to sit it out, that's a good choice.
Then stories from North Carolina, Moon Zappa and Marc Maron, dealing with the crazy, Dr. Drew and William Moyers, and acting in sober ways.

We did have Dr. Sarah scheduled, but there was a technology issue, so she will be joining us in a few weeks. It will be worth the wait.
Mike picked a random reading and it was about taking care of our minds and bodies now that we are sober. We got rid of the really bad stuff, but now what? We have some work to do, but we are better than we were 15 years ago.
And then we did a plug for Mike's radio gig next week, talked about "complete" honesty, improving silence, recognizing emotions, the early days at the Keating Center and some other podcasts,
Mike also got to rub elbows with a big wig this week. Listen to see what that is all about. And more.

Mike started off with his reading and it was about problems. We all have them and they are a part of life, but our problems today are very different than they were in our drinking days. It was a good talk.
Mike has his radio gig coming up in a couple of weeks, so we chatted about that and stayed tuned for more information.
Then a little more about Dennis Dunaway, Machine Gun Kelly, character defects, happiness, fear, dealing with physical pain when you are sober and is drinking still an option.

John is a writer from Concord, California. He’s been sober since February 27, 2005, after a lot of failed attempts.
He began writing in 2008 and has written four books since, with his newest book “Avocado Andy & Troubadour Tim” published by Quid Mirum Press in May of 2024. It’s a book about acceptance, friendship and love.
If it were not for recovery he would have never began writing.

Mike started with his reading and it was about hurts and fears and how we used to cover those up with drugs and alcohol. It also talked about the excuses that we had for justifying that behavior. It was a good conversation.
We chatted about community, self-will, satisfaction from others, "unpacking" things and being pessimistic or optimistic.

Happy 4th of July Weekend, from your average friends, Mike and Bill.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about being average. Are we ok with that? Are we making progress and are we better than we were yesterday. Listen in to find out.
We did chit chat about Bill's most recent trip, but then we worked through some cleanup topics.
Coincidences and a higher power, laughter and enjoying yourself in sobriety, keeping out of trouble, reacting verses responding and letting go or hanging on. Which one is more troublesome.

Mike started off with his reading and it was about time. How we spend it, the quality of the time and of the people that we are around. We also try not to waste time these days. It was a good talk.
We talked about podcast episodes, resentments, being good so that we don't have to make amends, solving or accepting problems, is our alcoholism a handicap and spinning signs.
There was also some talk about traveling and some recent trips. And I think some rambling? Definitely some rambling.

Mike started off with his reading and it was about order. The fact that we had no order in our lives before and sobriety allows us to have just a little but now. It was a good talk.
Then our friend Gary had emailed us regarding the question that we had about relationships surviving when a person gets sober. Gary and his husband survived and we shared their story.
A Riverside update, rock bottom, happiest cities, gifts of recovery, not being good enough and finally choices and consequences.

We started off with a slight rant about a thing that happened on Instagram. June is Pride month, we posted about it and someone apparently had an issue with us. Check it out.
Then Mike did his reading and it was about values, the beauty of life, doing the next right thing and living well. It actually fit perfectly with the first story and we had a good conversation.
On to music news, Green Day, party packs, the message or the messenger and struggles in early recovery.

Mike started off with a reading about how we evolve when we get sober. The abilities we have, the expectations and the good that we can do, now that we are sober. It was a great conversation.
Then some Branson stories, a final wrap of of Rob Halford's book, making a better life, surviving relationships and easy solutions.
There's more, but I forget.
Enjoy the episode.

This week it's your favorite sober pals again, Mike and Bill.
Mike started off with his reading and it was all about blame. It was a great topic and we were able to refer back to it later in the episode.
We talked about Memorial Day (past and present), other podcasts, being cool, Texas stuff, freedom from drinking, sponsor stuff and a little bit about a large book.
What else? I guess you will just have to listen.
Enjoy the episode.

This week we have Gary! Our good friend and our guest from Episode 81. (Make sure to check out that episode also)
Since Gary was basically a guest host with us, Mike started off with his reading and it was about risk. Mainly about how we get into recovery and how we deal with it along the way. It was a great conversation.
Then Gary had a few topics that ranged from sponsoring, to retreats, to how we change and evolve in recovery. Those were the basics, but quite honestly we all just talked about random things and it was wonderful.
I usually have a whole list of things that we checked off of a list, but this time it was just 3 guys, talking recovery.
Enjoy the episode.

This week we have Mike and Bill. Yeehaw! (Yes, Bill is in Texas and also recording in a unique place)
Mike did his reading and it was all about being in the moment and living in the moment. Something that we have talked about many times and it's how we try to live our lives. It was a good talk.
Then we found out that a website has our podcast on it and they said some nice things about us. Check it out here alcoholfree.com
More on Rob Halford, contempt prior to investigation, silly ads, the addict versus the disease and some other nonsensical garbage. In other words, we filled the time.
Enjoy the episode.

This week we have some Phat Action with Mike and Bill. That sounds inappropriate and maybe it is.
Mike started off with his reading and it was about higher powers, and egos and allowing things to happen. But also doing the work. It was a good reading and a good conversation.
We did a wrap up of last weekend in Cleveland, talked about Tennessee and Bill Clinton. What? Yes, Bill Clinton.
A little more about Rob Halford, a movie where a guy had a drinking problem, some work stuff and some nonsense. Lot's of that.
Enjoy the episode.
