    Is Travel Baseball Killing the Game? | Campfire Convos S3E6

    Planning a wedding or raising a young athlete? Bobby Thompson joins me by the fire to expose the "non-negotiables" for your big day and the hard truth about the travel baseball industry. Grab a seat for a deep conversation with my longtime friend and former teammate, Bobby Thompson. We dive into our shared history from the West Lebanon fields to the College World Series, discuss the challenges of impending fatherhood, and get real about "imposter syndrome" when chasing your high potential. Bobby also breaks down why coaching 11-year-olds changed his perspective on the game and what most wedding venues get wrong during speeches. Support the Show!
