Continuing the special episode podcast, remembering in saying goodbye to my work mom Mentor, friend, and the best boss I ever had, Cathy Bugg

My work Mom at Food city Cathy Bugg passed away last week in this episode. I tell you a couple of stories about her and say goodbye to the best boss I ever had

After two prequel episodes and now 10 episodes, we have finally reached the end of The Wagon Wheel. So what was the point of all of this? Why did I tell the story why did things happen like they did because I was looking for two things peace and finality. I think I found it. I’m ready to put it all in the past and put the wagon wheel away for good.

The biggest day of my life finally comes in December 2024 when I finish the damn story as it were and graduate from the University of Tennessee with a bachelors degree in history and also say goodbye to Amy

One of the cool things about being a student UT is you get a discount on concert tickets! One such concert that I went to the year before I graduated in 2023 was the Kelsea Ballerini concert. Funny thing about that concert. Amy was there too and wouldn’t you know she let me down again

In part two of episode nine I talk about my time on campus at the University of Tennessee where I had an undefeated record on Home football games at the Stadium and a bowl game cap off by the 2024 Tennessee versus Alabama game of which the Vols won and I got the storm the field with 100,000 other fans! I also talk about my favorite history class where I got to portray the tragic French revolution King Louis XVI! When Mel Brooks played the grandson of the Sun King. He said “it’s good to be the king” and it certainly was good for me being the king of Rocky Top for three years.

In this first part of episode nine I wanna tell you about my first day at the University of Tennessee about to do that I’ve also got to tell you about my work, brother Jason, one of the smartest people I ever knew and how he helped motivate me to get me there!

In parts 3 and 4 J commit two fatal mistakes: I break up with Kassie and I let Amy back in…..

With my relationship with Kassie budding I returned to Nashville to take her to a concert at Nissan Stadium for our two year anniversary wanting this trip to make up for Cinco de Ono with Amy the decade before I may have put too much pressure on not just myself, but Nashville and her as well

Filling the pains of loneliness after my eye surgeries, I realize it’s time to move on and make an effort to do so so via the world of online dating I find one of the greatest loves in my life, Kassie
