Pop Off to Peace: Bob T.’s 41 Years of Sobriety

God help me with my thinking!

On this episode of The Cup of Joe Show, we sit down with Bob T., a 74-year-old powerhouse of transformation whose sobriety journey began on Groundhog Day, 1984—a fitting metaphor for a life once stuck in a loop of rage, insecurity, and resentment.

Nicknamed “Pop Off” for his explosive temper, Bob takes us through the raw and real story of how a sponsor named Dale, a painful emotional bottom, and the unwavering support of the fellowship helped him move from fury to freedom.

Bob shares what it was like to spend 18 months on Step One, how grief nearly derailed his recovery, and how fear often hides behind anger. With hard-earned wisdom and deep humility, he reveals how gratitude, service, and emotional honesty saved his life.

🎙️Tap in to hear how Bob turned his curse into a calling—and why, 41 years later, he says he’s never been happier.
