Contrary Action [Season 10, Episode 11]

Emily describes to Olis and Sam the terrible consequences of her drinking and the repeated promise to "never do that again." It took Emily a while to admit to herself "maybe I do have this problem," and in AA her quiet desperation led to an alternate way to fix her problem besides alcohol. Emily talks about her love for the podcast too. The three discuss a Daily Quote about growth in AA. Don catches up with "Bleepity Bleep" Carissa who we first met in season 5.While we provide the podcast at no charge, we do have expenses.
