NAME: Recovery Radio Show

NETWORK: Recovery Media, Inc.

LOCATION: Aliso Viejo, California

SUMMARY:  Recovery Media, Inc. is comprised of an expanding network of radio stations designed to bring the entire spectrum of addiction to, and recovery from, alcoholism , substance abuse, and compulsive behaviors to local, regional and national listeners.

Already highly charged, it is when live calls from those suffering from addictive behaviors are added to the mix that the live program is transformed into a pseudo-melodrama emotive of an earlier radio era, with callers sharing their “as-it-is-happening, moment-by-moment, you-are-there” stories.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES: Guided by the “12-Step” process that is the basis of so many recovery programs, the fledgling program has taken on a weekly episodic tone, with many listeners now tuning in to hear the conclusion to a story that may have begun with a call a week or two earlier, or the result of advice given to a previous caller addicted to heroin and cocaine, or whether a caller survived after telling the show’s hosts he or she was about to commit suicide due to their inability to stay sober or stop gambling.

LIVE CALL-IN FORMAT: Live calls to the program have covered alcoholism and the damage it wreaks in the everyday lives of those who love, care for, or are included – often against their will by familial, professional or other unavoidable means – in the lives of alcoholics.

Addiction topics similarly have included calls from those suffering from heroin or meth-amphetamine addiction to callers who could not stop gambling until their finances were dependent on so-called “Payday Loans” with interest rates of more than 300 percent.

ON-AIR PERSONALITIES: Following are the true and accurate bio sketches of the on-air trio who are at the core of the show:

• Bob M., the former NCAA Division One football player and former vice president of a $250 million corporation, who as co-host is the show’s spiritual leader and has been sober for 14 years. Many years ago Bob told his wife he was going to the corner market to buy a pack of cigarettes one evening and never came home. Bob was “on the street” for two years, sleeping in abandoned buildings, shooting drugs, dealing drugs, brawling, using, drinking until he found his eventual salvation.

• Dr. Steve, a co-host, is a fully licensed and board-certified emergency physician who was educated at Harvard College and the University of Minnesota Medical School. He fought his way back from opiate addiction to sobriety while battling a debilitating chronic pain condition of his own. For 14 years, he was the head of emergency and trauma care at a busy urban medical center in the nation’s largest metropolitan area.
