    Ep. 107 - Walking It Back: Living Amends in Real Life

    Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Trudge Report. In the around the horn segment we touch on everything from the Cleveland Cavaliers to Aliens, to “Redacted Files." Danny and Shawn give some youth sports updates for our kids, Greg has a few quick wedding planning updates, and Corey asks for prayers for a close family member having some health struggles.  Before we dive into the recovery segment, Corey and Shawn share their experience at Papa Ron Scott's memorial service over the weekend, Shawn's first mentor. Even though we mourn his loss, what a wonderful thing to be a part of an event like that, seeing old friends, and sharing in the memories. It is a good reminder of what living this way of life actually looks like in practice. The recovery segment this week is all about doing our best at a fearless attempt to right the wrongs we have created over the years. Mainly in our drinking and using days, but certainly it applies to sober times as well. We discussed the difference between saying sorry and actually making amends. We touch on the living amends as well as the financial amends. We hope you enjoy. One more thing.

    Ep. 106 - The Trudge Crew welcomes Elizabeth Everett, host of Grace in the Breaking Podcast

    Hello everyone. We kick things off with some lighter life updates, including Corey surviving a truly brutal Valentine’s Day restaurant experience, Danny P celebrating a big win with his eighth grade bball team, and Greg nearly blowing off his eyebrows while grilling steaks. Then we pivot into the main recovery segment with our guest Elizabeth Everett, who shares how a childhood full of secrets, isolation, trauma, and addiction shaped what came next, and how chasing acceptance sent her down a fast, dangerous road. She walks us through what finally changed, what surrender looked like in real life, and the daily practices that keep her grounded now. The takeaway is simple: you don’t heal alone, and that one “small compromise” can grow fast if you let it. If you’re tired of spinning your wheels, community and honesty matter more than willpower. “Sin is a sense of separation from God.” - Emmet Fox Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

    Ep. 105 - Mending Fences: Repairing Our Wreckage Regardless of Consequence

    Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Trudge Report. This week we go around the horn and Dan shares his experience with his son over the weekend at Madison square garden for the UConn v St John's game. Greg gives us an update on wedding planning and Corey tells us how his new job is going and how he has finally gotten back into writing and playing music. Danny wins the rental car lottery, or at least so we think.  The recovery segment is all about beginning to make a list of people we have hurt. We shift from identifying the resentments, fears, and harms done, to actually beginning to put together a plan of action on how we can attempt to make these situations right and clean up our side of the street. We get honest about the ones we dread, the ones we delay, and the moments where doing the right thing might come with real consequences. Freedom may cost something initially but holding on to these is more expensive in the long run.  Intelligence is humility. - Lionel Shriver - Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

    Ep. 104 - When It Starts To Feel Like Fresh Air Again: Exercising Humility Without Becoming a Doormat

    Join us this week as we trudge through the cold. 16 inches of snow for the Ohio boys and frost on the cars for the Florida boys. We celebrate Corey‘s daughter‘s birthday and the fact that he would make the world‘s worst parking attendant. Corey also starts a new job this week so we wish him well in that endeavor. A big shout out to producer Janine with the grand opening of her new studio and a wonderful kickoff event that Corey and Shawn attended. Another shout-out to Tom and Angela and all the Stella Mix crew behind the scenes. Plus super bowl discussion and prediction at the very end of the show. During the recovery segment we extend the conversation about defects of character and shortcomings. We explain, a little more, the difference between the two, but how they are interchangeable. We talk about some of the character flaws in our makeup that we might still like to hold on to. We discuss humility versus humiliation and the fact that these defects don't all go away immediately. Even when we are truly ready. Plus, Corey talks about how good it is to breathe fresh air again. “When we inhale, by prayer, we receive the fresh air of the Holy Spirit." — Pope Francis Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

    Ep. 103 - Defects of Character: Are They Who I Am or What God Needs to Remove?

    Join Trudge Report this week as the Ohio boys are shoveling snow while the Florida boys are soaking up 85° sunny weather. We kick things off with a quick check in on the winter storm to make sure Greg and Dan are okay. Corey has two quick rants. One about the evolution of American school snow days and the other about too many school fundraisers.  The recovery segment surrounds our defects of character. We have just recently uncovered most or all of these defects as we have gone through the inventory process, written things down, and discussed with a trusted person. Now, we discuss the difference between personality traits and character flaws and how these defects can be cast out. Can we remove our own defects of character or is it only by the One who has all Power? “A shortcoming is like a flat tire. A character defect is like driving on it.” -Unknown- Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

    Ep. 102 - As Free As You Want To Be: Getting Honest With Yourself and Sharing With a Trusted Person

    Welcome back to another episode of Trudge Report. Danny is traveling and with family this week so Greg, Corey, and Shawn are bringing the goods. Greg has a quick rant on the state of the movie theatre going experience these days, Corey shares some big life updates, and Shawn recaps a weekend of family feud and comedy roasting.  The recovery segment is all about writing things down. We specifically talk about writing down our resentments, fears, and harms done. The necessity of this process in our recovery programs and how it gets it out of our heads, which is fantasyland, and puts it into reality. Next, we discuss the importance of discussing the things we write with a trusted source and confidant. How to pick this person and how dangerous it can be if we shy away from this part of the recovery process. A solitary self-appraisal is insufficient. We have to have other people who have been through the experiences and can share their honest opinion and perspective. All of this gets us closer to the God of our understanding. Every morning you have two choices: Continue to sleep with your dreams, or wake up and chase them." -Carmelo Anthony Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

    Ep. 101 - Owning the Harms We’ve Done: Sobriety, Growth & Freedom

    Hello everyone, we welcome you back to another episode of Trudge Report. In this week's episode we tackle a little bit of football talk as playoff season is upon us. We go around the horn and Greg gives a little constructive feedback to the toy manufacturer, Mattel. We also mention the touching but sometimes overlooked moments of being parents. We discuss a little more about financial fears and then we dive into the main recovery segment which is the harms we have done to others. We talk about how we used and manipulated everyone, especially those closest to us. These harms are not only caused during our drinking days but also when we are many years sober. It all lands on a simple point: freedom starts when you stop hiding from what you did and start showing up like a different person.  Persistence in prayer is an expression of our faith. -Emmet Fox- Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

    Ep. 100 - 100 Ways Not to Host a Podcast: Favorite Episodes, Fear & the Trouble It Creates

    100th episode!!!! Hello everyone and welcome back to Trudge Report. The whole crew is back in action this week as we are all home and settled in post New Year. After a quick around the horn and recap of our holiday and New Year travels and escapades we do some brief sports talk before getting into the main material of the show. We pay homage to Shawn's long time mentor in recovery of over 14 years who recently passed away and went to the Big Meeting in the sky. Next we pay tribute to 100 episodes of Trudge Report. Each of us take a turn talking about lasting memories and how we started. The recovery segment is all about fear. Irrational fear, self-centered fear, fear in early recovery as opposed to current day fear. How we deal with these fears and most importantly, how we turn it over to our Higher Powers and the steps we take to eliminate or lessen these fears. “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and they that lack the beginning have neither middle or end.” - John Bunyan.  Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.
