Inside the Hoosier Mind
An Air Force veteran born and raised in Indianapolis Indiana with a passion for sports. As I got older, I had a good friend who I would always talk sports and life with, once I joined the service, I no longer had that person to talk sports with. So, I decided to start a podcast. As a result, I ended up meeting a great group of people who had that same fire and passion about diving deep into the sports and everything that encompasses them. All while staying true to my Indiana and midwest roots.
