The podcast returns, finally. The host interviews a Minnesota man he has never met, although he has followed the man's work for more than a decade. You'll hear references to places, people and events that won't mean anything to you, but you'll also hear the story of a man who has held a variety of jobs, in a variety of professions, throughout his adult life, and is a testament to the idea of following your dreams. The host also shares a story about how a decision he doesn't remember making forever changed the life of one of his friends.
