The Local Bar is a place to sit back, relax, and join the conversation with some great folks who live just down the block.  Each week, we bring a positive message from people who have amazing stories to share about themselves and the people around them.  Pull up a stool.  First drink is on the house.

To celebrate the 200th episode of the show, I've decided to turn the microphone inward and have my three favorite people that have ever walked the planet interview me.   Thank you for all the years, the shows, emails, and support.  This has been an unexpected and fantastic journey.   I'm the luckiest guy you know.

Sometimes I feel like it takes me so long to get some people I know to be on the show.  This is a time that I waited too long.  Tom Hall was someone you should have known, and he probably had an impact on your life, even if you didn't (certainly if you listen to this show).   Here's to you, Tom.
