The Local Bar 196 - Tom Hall and Legacy Jan 26, 2024

Show notes

Sometimes I feel like it takes me so long to get some people I know to be on the show. This is a time that I waited too long. Tom Hall was someone you should have known, and he probably had an impact on your life, even if you didn't (certainly if you listen to this show).

Here's to you, Tom.

The Local Bar 187 - July 11, 2005 Jul 20, 2023

Show notes

This week we share a story that we never get the time to tell. However, the lessons that are woven into it are some of the most important that we could ever share. The embellishments have been stripped out (to a minimum) and old wounds laid bare.

I hope you get something out of this. If you do, please pass it along to someone else who might as well.

If you struggle with thoughts of suicide, please get help by calling 1.800.273.8255.
