Every season, we take a few interviews way too long to fit into a regular episode of the Lunchcast. Sometimes, the content is just too good to leave on the cutting room floor.

When that happens, we bring these extended interviews as a J Term or Summer Session.

That's what happened during our conversation with Thom Golden, Founder and CEO of Golden Educational Consulting in Hendersenville, Tennessee, discussing the program he has put together to help folks come over to the independent side.

Enjoy this extended interview, from season seven's episode, "Going Independent."
