Alan Charles: How Baseball Shaped My Recovery Journey
“The game didn't start going until I threw a pitch. So I had gotten gum and this one other kid saw me get the gum and when he saw it he said: give me your gum.”
Imagine finding salvation in the crack of a bat and the roar of the crowd.

Special guest Pete Mulrion, Alan's former coach at The University of Tampa, joins the conversation to highlight the lasting impact of childhood experiences and the power of never giving up.
