My Operating System Was Broken [Season 11, Episode 2]

In his drinking years Leonard felt like life was punishment. He tells Olis and Don how a woman kindly asked him if he thought his drinking was a problem, and he soon found his way to an AA meeting. He walked through the door, got a sponsor and his life changed. In Listener Feedback we hear from Angela and Emily. We also hear back about favorite non-alcoholic beverages from Pat, Chad and Sunny. Pat shares a photo that you can see on Grapevine's Instagram. Gerry and Cynthia write in about the Get the App Rap. In Using The Traditions in Our Lives we hear from Laura, Leslie and Liz about Tradition Seven. In Wits End we hear a joke from Jack.
