100 miles, 24 hours---"killing the quit" and running like hell to succeed. Part 2 on extreme perseverance with Hannibal Smith.

This show gives me the opportunity to share with listeners one of my greatest interests, which is people and the great stories of their lives. Growing up in San Diego I came across all types of folks who had some type of influence over me. As I became older and stretched to see outside my city limits either through conversation, books, music or traveling, I gained a different perspective on the importance of culture, art, wisdom and what it means to be "educated." I have had the the good fortune to come across amazing artists from various walks of life such as painters, poets, writers, chefs, and more. You might hear a few more stories about jazz musicians, athletes, coaches and martial artists as those areas are near and dear to me. What I hope to achieve through this podcasts is to preserve the valuable information of those who have paved the way for me. The show focuses on their foundations, what was their childhood and family life like? What were the lines they knew not to cross? What were the unexpected lessons that they took with them? Through a conversational dialogue, listeners hear where they came from, who their early influences were and the tools and skills they developed along the way. I hope people enjoy these stories as much as I have.
