This episode starts out with "Sober Don" hosting Sobriety Squabble a game of guessing top answers to the question "what are the best ways to stay sober during the holidays?" — as we surveyed answers from Area Grapevine Chairs and Alternate Chairs. There's a report in from Alan, whose area was devastated by a recent hurricane, on how AA is continuing to help alcoholics. Olis and Sam interview Laslo about getting sober in the Canadian Military, and how he now works to help others. Carl calls in an Ask it Basket question, and Mily has a History Snippet from August 1960.
