Just discovered Sean and this podcast thanks to Facebook and have thoroughly enjoyed it!
One of my “Must Read” posts
Mike Rowe mentioned Sean in one of his FB posts … said he never missed any of Sean’s essays, really worthwhile reading. So I searched until I found him … now I read him too, including his books. I appreciate how he sees things.
6 years too late.
I never heard of this guy until I heard him on the Rick & Bubba University podcast I went all the way back and started listening from the beginning. The episodes from 2017 got me from West Monroe LA to Terrell TX. I’m hooked now. The stories remind me of Lewis Grizzard and Paul Harvey.
