Monica Richardson has been sounding the alarm on predatation and crime in Alcoholics Anonymous for over two decades. She is the director of the award winning “13th Step” documentary and the former host of the ground breaking “Safe Recovery” podcast. In this episode I speak with Monica Richardson about how she went from being a devoted member and mentour in A.A. to becoming one of the organization’s most vocal critics. Richardson gives her take on A.A.’s role in the alleged crimes of Nick Reiner and Russell Brand and exposes how Alcoholic Anonymous has captured our court system.
