Way to go.
I looked up to Thomas a lot in college. Glad to see he is doing well. I hope you enjoy creating this content as much as I enjoy listening.
Good work man
This is great stuff. Enjoy it. Keep em coming.
Love it
As a Lubbock guy, I love how we have Thomas representing the town as well as the Blue Light. He gets great interviews and always asks the right questions. I would also like to request my man Vincent Neal Emerson. -jackhenson12
