This week on The Living Clean Podcast, Francis and I are joined by Chris B., Boyd P., and Ron H. for a unique episode that steps outside our usual format. During a recent gathering, Chris and Boyd were walking us through one of the many presentations theyâve designed and developed on the history of Narcotics Anonymous. Francis asked if we could record the experience, and they graciously agreed.
Itâs not your traditional episodeâbecause it wasnât designed to beâbut itâs packed with insight. Youâll not only learn more about the Traditions themselves, but also get a behind-the-scenes look at the effort and passion that goes into creating these kinds of presentations.
Whether youâre passionate about NA history or simply curious about where our Traditions come from, this oneâs definitely worth a listen.

In this episode, we dive into one of the most discussed topics in Narcotics Anonymous todayâhow we, as a Fellowship, navigate Drug Replacement Therapy (DRT) and Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) while staying true to NAâs principles. With no unified stance on the issue, many groups struggle with how to welcome newcomers on MAT without compromising NAâs foundation as a program of complete abstinence.
Weâll explore NAâs literature, the importance of identification, and how we create a sense of belonging for all addicts seeking recovery. Weâll also discuss the Third Tradition, personal experiences, and practical ways to foster unity within the Fellowship.
Join us as we break down myths, challenge misconceptions, and focus on the primary purpose of NA: carrying a message of hope and freedom to the addict who still suffers.
