The Podcast
This podcast is a labor of love where I like to sit down and talk with people I know and get their thoughts and ideas on a wide array of topics. It's mostly sports because sports are still fun for me but I'll venture around as the mood strikes me. As I get older, this pod has become a way for me to stay in touch with friends and connect with people at a time where we couldn't be more disconnected.
