Let's get started.

EPISODE #1 - tOMMY MUSKA

For our first podcast we invited Tommy Muska, Mayor of West, TX. He is an incredible leader and longtime friend of Jed's. We recorded the episode 10 years and one day from the tragic explosion in the city of West. Join Jed and Tommy as they reflect and dive into how one man, led his friends, family, and constituents out of tragedy and into a recovery. They discuss the qualities of Tommy's leadership as Jed saw them  firsthand, day in day out. Qualities like being present, being a great friend, being a great listener, being a great follower, being passionate, being a great communicator, and having a vision for West. This is a great podcast, looking forward to y'all following along with us.
