Nugget's Nuggets

Nugget of Augusta

Welcome to Nugget’s Nuggets, where we talk about the good stuff—faith, golf, guns, and life. I’m Nugget, a USAF veteran who flew on the E-8C JSTARS, a single-digit handicapper on the golf course, a young adult leader at church, and—every now and then—a real estate agent. The playbook says I should talk about real estate, but let’s be honest—if you’re here and want to buy, sell, or invest, you’ll know where to find me. Instead, this podcast is about who I am, not just what I do. We’ll dive into the things that matter—faith, discipline, skill-building, and the pursuit of something bigger than just another deal. Every so often, my real estate business will drop in with an ad read, letting you know how to submit your real estate questions. But until then? Let’s talk about life.
