On this episode I chatted with former OU quarterback and Congressman JC Watts. We talk about his upbringing near Lake Eufaula. Playing for OU and the life lessons parallel with Football as well as moving into leadership and public office later on in his life. JC was the first Oklahoman of African descent to be elected to a statewide office. He was inducted into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 2019 and served as the MC in 2022. JC has written multiple books and currently serves on the board of Paycom in OKC.
