Episode 205

He was a stockbroker with a drinking problem. A man who’d tasted the high life, only to lose it all to the bottle. But in a moment of utter despair, something changed. And from that darkness, he lit a spark that would go on to save millions.

Before rehab centres, before addiction was widely understood, there was just one man, trying to help another stay sober—one day at a time.

This is the story of Bill Wilson. The co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous. A man who believed that admitting powerlessness was the beginning of real strength. A man who gave the world a 12-step program, but struggled to follow all twelve himself.

From backroom meetings in dusty church basements, to a global fellowship spanning nearly every corner of the earth—his legacy is nothing short of revolutionary.

In this episode, we take a short history of Bill Wilson: visionary, flawed hero, and the reluctant prophet of sobriety.
