Rebellion Dogs Radio
Modernity and Fundamentalism in 12 Step Culture Today
Show Notes

With or Without God: the latest Alcoholics Anonymous Membership Survey from Great Britain identifies how many members are religious vs. secular.

Episode 69 of Rebellion Dogs Radio  looks at our more enlightened understanding of AA members, at least a significant sample size: the findings from the Great Britain 2020 AA Membership Survey + English Speaking Central Europe meetings. We look, not only at this modernism movement that includes measurable assessment of AA members and AA life today, but we look at how progress is happening in AA, within the context of fundamentalism in AA. It is worth viewing both sides, what are the payoffs for those who embrace a strict orthodoxy and why is AA’s progress, too slow for some. 

Rebellion Dogs Radio is a contemporary look at life in recovery, addiction, mental health and sober culture. Now with less dogma and more bite. A lot of podcasts I like the most, I listen to twice, to help absorb what I might have missed in a once-over.  RebellionDogsPublishing.com is a hub too: stuff that we have written, stuff we love reading, links, resources, time wasters. Visiting Rebellion Dogs online, we post notices ahead of time or at least, links to listen/watch after the fact.
