rave review from a recovering alcoholic–Dr. Gene Steiner’s radio show
Dr. Gene has had me on his show (9pm KRLA 870am Talk Radio in L.A.) four or five times over the last few months. Here’s a letter from one of his listeners:
“I was driving home last night and heard your show. I’m an alcoholic and when I heard your guest and determined that he wasn’t an alcoholic ( I’m such an arrogant nut)…I was ready to switch over to Phil Hendry or KABC…and something got me stuck…..
this was about the most amazing interview I’ve heard on this subject.
I’m so struck by what he said. diagnosing alcoholics by behavior rather than by drinking. I’m 16 + years sober that this just bowled me over. I absolutely fit the stereotype he portrayed, or did while I was drinking and on to my early sobriety. I was mentally arguing with your guest while he was on but some reason made me continue to listen even after I got home. I just sat in the driveway listening.
thank you so much for this incredible wake up call”
