"Ready for Pushback"
**may be a two-listen episode due to the longer run-time.

In this longer episode, Dan Carroll shares delightful stories about his childhood, his parents, meeting his wife from Lookout Mtn for the first time, his family, his love of flying and his love of cars. 

This is a super fun episode full of laughs, edits, more laughs and a lot of cutting up. Dan is like a perfectionist with a great sense of humor and that combination will have the listeners smiling and laughing from the beginning to the end of this episode. We had so much fun making this episode that we included a "Smokey and The Bandit" style blooper track at the end of the main episode. 

Dan is full of surprises from his love of ski racing to his recent win in a big car show. 
Dan doesn't disappoint in the "Love Dept.", either as he shares the story of his first time on Lookout as he came to meet his amazing wife, Talley. Also hear about their two wonderful children and what they are up to these days.

Listen in and hear about Nino, the Italian mechanic, and Dan's first car, to all about the Ferrari Club of America - this episode is big and loaded. We talk about New Haven, CT,  East Rock, The Foote School and MTSU, 'aviation English' and Murfreesboro and Mr. King. 

Hear about flying and the airline industry of today and the changes close ahead for us all. Also hear all about Dan's main passion...Cars. And, at the end of the episode, hear some surprise news for mountain residents as Dan and the host share news about a possible upcoming event that is sure to get a good turnout on the mountain. 

* Note - this hour-plus, long episode may need to heard in two or more listens - it's a big one - but well worth your time. Enjoy - and Dan - Good job! You did great! You are a true Mountain Treasure! 
Now put your tray in the upright position and fasten your seatbelts! 
Capn' Dan is about to push up the throttles!

It's not really like other mountain courses...rather, it's more of a course... on a 'cloud'.

Carter, Lupton, Probasco, Davenport, Oehmig, Dye, and of course Raynor - these are some of the many names who have all been an instrumental part of an amazing story, 100 years in the making. Hear from the wonderful mind, and heart, of Doug Stein about not just the golf course on Lookout but also about his family, growing up here and his many friends from over the years. This is a really powerful episode of time, vision, passion, dreams and especially determination. Doug does an excellent job of sharing with listeners about his great memories from growing up in this community and even raising his children here and his love of this community. Hear about everything from the great ice storm of 1960 to the building of Covenant College and even movie stars who came to Lookout. 

It is a joy to listen to Doug share what is clearly a life passion for him as his talks about his family, his friends and the course at Lookout Mountain. 

This episode offers a true deep dive on the actual golf holes and their layouts and, it goes into some great detail about the current, exciting renovations. 
At times, the listeners may even feel like Doug is actually channeling Seth Raynor himself as he describes the layout and vision of the course. 

Oh, and what a May it will be! As the anticipated opening of the course sometime late next spring, the opening of this long-awaited and much anticipated "ultimate upgrade" will occur.  The Stein name joins the list of these special folks all of whom have been passionate on this journey.

So, until then, please listen and enjoy the truly excellent effort by Doug to share the history, vision and hopes for this wonderful asset in our community. 

Well done Lookout Mtn Club members and, well done Doug Stein! King must be so proud.

 Thank you!
