Long before the internet, Wi-Fi, video games, and social media, the world was different. Better. More peaceful with less injustice. On today's episode, we talk about those things as I interview my dad, William Lynn Scott.

He's arguably the smartest man I know, could easily win any Jeopardy competition, and he's the guest for today's show. He's a titan to me. I can still remember how patient my dad was with me as a kid, teaching me things like hunting, fishing, the differences between the types of trees in the woods, how to throw a split-seamed fastball, how to treat people, being okay with crying, and always saying I love you.

In this episode, we talk about what life was like for a kid (my dad) growing up in the rural Midwest, the Civil Rights days, experiencing monumental changes to our nation during the 1960's and 1970's, and the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

My dad brings a unique perspective on life during this episode that you don't want to miss.
