One Show At A Time, A Yellow Balloon Experience

Sara Jachimiak, Benji Rosenzweig, Lauryn Snelson, Matthew Wilson

One Show at a Time is a storytelling podcast where people in recovery share raw, honest accounts of addiction, transformation, and what life looks like on the other side. Born from the Yellow Balloon community—a network of sober music fans from groups like Wharf Rats (Grateful Dead), The Phellowship (Phish), and Much Obliged (Umphrey’s McGee)—this show began as a project to spotlight voices from inside the scene. But today, it’s grown into something bigger. Each episode features a new speaker from any walk of life—jam fans or not—offering a deeply personal window into their journey. You’ll hear where they came from, how they fell, how they got back up, and what’s keeping them grounded now. If you're in recovery, love someone who is, or are just curious about how people rebuild their lives one day—or one show—at a time, this podcast is for you.
