About Recovery Rocks
Ever wonder what it's like to go on your first sober date? Or survive a wedding without liquid courage? How about dancing stone-cold sober or dealing with your first breakup without wine? If so, you're in luck because you can join bestselling authors and longtime sober friends Lisa Smith and Anna David as they talk to guests—and each other—about addiction and recovery, including all the “firsts” that come with sober living. From awkward to amazing, cringe-worthy to surprisingly poignant, they’re discussing what it’s like to experience life without substances. Lisa is the author of the award-winning memoir Girl Walks Out of a Bar, while Anna wrote Party Girl, a comic novel about addiction and recovery in the vein of Rachel's Holiday and Postcards From the Edge. Together, they explore the real-life moments behind the kinds of stories that shape how people understand recovery. Whether you're newly sober, sober-curious or just want to hear some honest stories about recovery, Recovery Rocks is here for all of it. Because as it turns out, when you can remember everything that happened, life gets a lot more interesting. New episodes weekly. Real stories, real recovery, real talk.

Almost Stealing 500 Librium, Surviving Relapse and Redefining Rock Bottom with Oliver Mason
Published 23 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] And I can sort of, you know, we can all kind of look at the whys and wherefores of that and sort of crack the egg open and go, well, that's not fully true. It doesn't matter. That's how I will feel. And Oliver plus hangover equals off license or what would you guys call it? Liquor store, right? Like that's what's going to happen. And I know that's the way it's going to go down. That so reminds me, you're so good at pinging these memories that I haven't thought about in so long. One of the very first speakers I ever heard, I remember her name was Stacy and she talked about how she said to her nephew, he said, I was drinking all night, blah, blah, blah. […]
