I regularly host my own meeting called "Rita Bag o Boom" at least two nights a week while participating in the Recovery Road Online group for my recovery program. During the meeting, participants request a topic, which I then choose from a bag, and they share their thoughts. The topics we discuss are related to gambling addiction.

Additional Information

I am excited to announce that I am currently collaborating with Money Funhouse Events to produce a weekly podcast with fellow gambler, Francie Money. Our mission is to boldly highlight the dangers of a gambling addiction, with a comedy flair. Sounds complicated but both hosts have first hand experience and a bitchin' sense of humor. Our target audience will be fellow gamblers in recovery of any age and at any stage of recovery. We plan to include an anonymous confessional hotline, our tattoo recovery date challenge, and spotlight guest speakers on the show.
