The 14th story from the Personal Stories section of the first edition of Alcoholics Anonymous is entitled “Riding the Rods.” Because it was printed only in the first edition of the Big Book in 1939, it’s a “new” story to those who’ve never seen it. This captivating tale offers a a glimpse of life in the early 20th century in the years before AA and one man’s struggle to escape the awful depths of alcoholic despair.” Howard L, sober since 1988, presents an inspired reading of this story and encourages listeners to revisit earlier podcast episodes that feature the main chapters of the Big Book.
