The Big Book of Western Action Stories edited by Jon Tuska is an anthology collecting classic tales of the American frontier and frontier justice. On the May 21, 2018 episode of This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von titled 64 Colors | This Past Weekend #97, a caller named Ellen offered advice to someone dealing with an alcoholic partner. Ellen recommended that the individual get a sponsor, commit to attending ninety recovery meetings in ninety days, and get serious about recovery using the Big Book. While the conversation centered around general recovery steps and dealing with substance abuse issues in personal relationships, the reference highlighted the traditional tools and literature utilized in twelve-step programs to achieve and maintain sobriety. The recommendation emphasized accountability, community support, and structured guidance for individuals struggling with addiction and the loved ones affected by it.
