When I was craving for a drink I used to tell myself I could go out and buy some booze if I listened to an AA speaker tape first, and for some reason, by the end of the speaker tape I didn't need to drink. In the early days I'd listen to a speaker tape at least once per day.

If you google for XA Speakers you'll find the site, and I recommend you listen to Chris R (do a search on the site for him). Chris R not only carries a strong, motivating message of recovery, he's very funny too.

I still listen to speaker tapes, though I like the rougher ones; they seem more honest than some of the polished shares you can find. They're now just great stories I can empathise with, and as I say, many of them are funny too.
