Ten Great Podcasts for Recovery
That Sober Guy
thatsoberguy.com – The host of the That Sober Guy podcast, Shane Ramer, is in his late thirties and was addicted to alcohol and drugs. However, thanks to the birth of his daughter, the love of his wife, very supportive friends, and a successful visit to an inpatient rehabilitation facility, he has been clean and sober since 2013. His podcast is quite popular and focuses on staying positive and both physically and mentally healthy in recovery. Shane posts a new podcast episode weekly, and also maintains a blog at thatsoberguy.com/blog.
The Bubble Hour
facebook.com/thebubblehour – The Bubble Hour is hosted by Jean M, a sober woman who is a recovering alcoholic. This podcast includes stories, conversations, and interviews, all with the goal of reminding people that are working on their recovery that they are not alone. It also seeks to eliminate the stigma that often surrounds people in recovery from alcoholism.
AfterPartyPod
rehabreviews.com/category/podcast – After Party Magazine is an online entity that is a part of a larger site called RehabReviews.com, which, as one might imagine, offers reviews of various addiction recovery rehabilitation centers. The magazine portion includes essays, news stories, and videos, often from celebrities and entertainment industry folks who are working on recovery themselves. The podcast features interviews with these people, and has included visits from Moby, Marc Maron, and Dr. Drew, to name a few.
Recovery Radio
recoveryradionetwork.podcastpeople.com – The Recovery Radio podcast, which releases a new episode every weekday, takes a novel approach to podcasting. Rather than create new content daily, it instead pulls from and rebroadcasts motivational speeches by speakers at Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in the past. Although the fast majority are from the 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s, some go back as far as the 1950s! The information included is timeless. This is a great podcast to follow for anyone who needs daily support; each day’s podcast runs between thirty and sixty minutes in length.
Clean and Sober Radio
wwwdbam.com/shows/clean-and-sober – Clean and Sober Radio is a live show that broadcasts every Friday at 3pm on Philadelphia’s WWBD-AM Talk 860 station, but you can also listen to the podcast anytime online. Host Gary Hendler has been clean and sober for over thirty years. He includes information from his personal journey, as well as interviews with others in recovery, and tips for staying clean, sober, and healthy in your own life.
The SHAIR Podcast
theshairpodcast.com – Host of The SHAIR Podcast, Omar Pinto, is a life coach, recovery coach, and public speaker. His podcast is weekly and has been broadcast for several years. In it, he aims to “showcase the power and resilience of the human spirit” and offers support and inspiration to individuals in recovery. He also offers one-on-one coaching, if you find you are inspired by his podcasts.
Since Right Now
sincerightnow.com – The Since Right Now Podcast offers a weekly broadcast with hosts Chris, Jeff, and Matt, and seeks to shatter the stigma and stereotypes normally associated with people in recovery from alcohol and other drugs. They discuss current issues, offer compassion and insights, and offer a unique product and perspective that differs in many ways from the other podcasts in this realm.
Sober Speak
soberspeak.com – The Sober Speak Podcast is released weekly and includes people sharing their story of recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous. It is similar to Recovery Radio, mentioned above; in it, men and women tell about their “experience, strength, and hope, centered around the twelve steps of AA.” It’s a great and helpful stand-in if no meetings are available when you need one, or just as an additional resource to help you along your way.
Sober Life Coach
Sober Life Coach is a company that was started by two best friends, Bryan Amaro and Roman Braly , that helps young men and women overcome addiction. New episodes of their podcast are released twice weekly on Tuesdays and Thursdays and include information, interviews, and informative dialogue to help offer support to those in need.
The HOME Podcast
soundcloud.com/thisishomepod/ – The HOME Podcast recently stopped releasing new episodes, but it was created weekly from July 2015 to January of this year, and it developed quite a following during that time. Co-hosts Laura McKowen and Holly Whitaker have decided to move on to other projects, but their past episodes are still archived, accessible, and enjoyable to listeners.
