Since #Rick got his revenge on wife-killer Rick and is recovering from his #trauma and bettering himself, I hope in the new season we see him going to #AA, preferably a chapter of it that doesn't go the God route with it.

AA's Biggest Lies Start Right Here. The Truth About Bill Wilson And The Big Book.
AA's Biggest Lies Start Right Here. The Truth About Bill Wilson And The Big Book. This video questions the authenticity of The Big Book used in Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, suggesting it contains falsehoods. We aim to expose the first lie presented in the book's initial chapters, drawing parallels to fundamentalist religious worldviews and challenging the traditional views of Alcoholics Anonymous addiction recovery. Many ask, " is AA a cult?" and this discussion contributes to that ongoing debate.

I Got Married Three Days After Rehab
I Got Married Three Days After Rehab Recovery isn’t a straight line, and Matt Willis reflects openly on what that reality has meant for him. This solo episode is part 2 of Matt Willis taking a trip down memory lane where he speaks candidly about addiction, recovery, and the long process of learning to live differently. He explores the moments that forced him to confront himself, the challenges of trying to change alone, and the ongoing work required to stay well. Rather than offering simple answers, Matt discusses the uncertainty, setbacks, and searching that shaped his recovery, alongside the role of responsibility, trust, and fatherhood in helping him find steadier ground. This is a thoughtful, honest conversation about resilience, accountability, and what it really means to commit to change, without shortcuts, and without pretending recovery is linear. 00:00 When Enough Was Enough 05:00 Running From Rehab 09:00 The Man Who Carried Me In 13:00 Married Three Days Sober 17:00 Searching for Something to Believe 22:00 Fatherhood Changed Everything 27:00 A Relapse That Broke Me 31:00 Throwing the Drugs Away 36:00 Returning Without Using 40:00 The ADHD Realisation 46:00 Why Recovery Must Be Shared Simba mattresses 👉Great recovery starts with great sleep.

Cults & the Culting of America w/ Knitting Cult Lady & Dr. Scot Loyd | 65 | The  Children of AA
Cults & the Culting of America w/ Knitting Cult Lady & Dr. Scot Loyd | 65 | The Children of AA Content warnings: discussion of child abuse, child sexual abuse, sexual assault, trauma, recovery culture, substance abuse, and high-control groups. In this episode of Cults and the Culting of America, Daniella and Scot are joined by Violet, a writer and creator who grew up immersed in 12-step programs from infancy. Violet shares her lived experience of being raised in Alcoholics Anonymous, examining how recovery culture, often treated as sacred and beyond critique, can function as a high-control system, particularly for children. The conversation explores themes of indoctrination, isolation, shame, hierarchy based on “time sober,” and the normalization of trauma exposure. Drawing parallels between AA, religious movements, cult dynamics, and other institutional systems, the hosts and Violet interrogate why these programs resist scrutiny, how harm is minimized in the name of “saving lives,” and why children are consistently deprioritized. The episode closes with a clear call to keep children out of adult recovery spaces and to critically evaluate systems that claim moral authority while causing lasting harm.

Why Yes, I WILL Take You Through My 10 Point Cult Checklist, Thanks For Asking
Why Yes, I WILL Take You Through My 10 Point Cult Checklist, Thanks For Asking I go into lots and lots of details about each of these in the The Culting of America. And PS. AA is a Cult About Me: I'm Daniella Mestyanek Young, scholar of cults, extreme groups, and extremely bad leadership. These days, I'm also known as the Knitting Cult Lady. I grew up in the Children of God cult (also known as the Family International), and served 2 tours of duty in the cult of the US army. I noticed that those two organizations had a lot in common and have been studying them and what we can learn about other cults-- and how to protect ourselves from coercive control and abusive situations.
