  • #50 Trap Golf

    In a world where it seems many are divided and are pulling against each other, my guest today, along with his partners, are doing something tangible to make us better. The Trap Golf brand, which is growing exponentially, is the brainchild of my guest, Aaron Munn. An avid golfer, Aaron is also an extremely gifted artist. Additonally he attended the inner city schools of New York City as a child, exposing him to diverse cultures. Through his brand, he combined golf and art in an effort to expose unsuspecting young people to the game of golf who otherwise would never be exposed - turning negativity into something very positive. Aaron later partnered with PGA caddy, Wayne Birch Jr. and with Roger Steale, a well known social media influencer who does creative work for other brands for the Nike and Callaway brands.  The result is a brand that started in the living room of Aaron’s house and now to a company that is shipping apparel in all fifty states. This amazing trio has a ultimate goal much higher than normal businesses. This is the story of Trap Golf.

  • #44 John Roefaro
    John Roefaro, a New Jersey native, has spent 53 years in the funeral business - most of it in the five boroughs of New York City where things are done a little differently than we did it in Reynolds GA.  About 15 years of his tenure was spent at the most famous funeral home of them all - Frank E. Campbell, known as the funeral home of the stars. It did not take me long to realize one of John's greatest assets is his sense of humor.  When you do what he has done all his life and where he has done it, a sense of humor surely helps.   But if your time comes while you are visiting New York City, this is your man.

  • #43 The Making of a Dawg

    This is the story of a small town boy moving to a big time college town, joining a fraternity and becoming a Georgia Dawg.  True stories are rampant in this episode that looks back some fifty years to a wonderful time.   Some of the stories will make you smile.. others might just make you laugh out loud.  

    If you are a graduate of the University of Georgia or any other institution for that matter,  you will be reminded of a very special time in your life.

  • #42 The Greatest Among You
    I originally released this story on January 22, 2022 as Episode #5 entitled "This Angel."   Since we have many more listeners now than we had in January, many have not heard it.  If you have heard it, it is worth hearing again. Some things are worth repeating. You will find incredible life lessons here - along with a little humor to lighten the mood. The greatest among you will be your servant. This is the story of Jessie Mae King.

    Ray Tiencken, a prominent and successful businessman with an 8th grade education, grew up in very difficult circumstances and mad with the world.  He cried himself to sleep many nights as a child  asking the question, "Will my life always be like this?"  It could have been.  But Ray was determined to make another life. And he did. This is his story and it can become your story.  Although a self-made man, Ray gives credit to folks who helped him along the way. He also gives credit to God who he believes was and is the key to his success.  He spends his days now paying forward and giving back to others.  He has helped many people along the way.  His story here will no doubt help many who are asking the same question.
