Jason Sexton
Hometown Has-Beens
Ben, Ryan, Chris, and Jason are walking examples of Hometown Has-Beens. All four grew up together and now teach together at their alma mater. These four fathers and husbands talk about everyday life through the lens of their small town upbringing. There are plenty of laughs, embarrassing stories, life hacks, and an occasional guest. The term Has-Been generally speaking has a negative connotation. But this podcast attempts to give the term Has-Been a new meaning because it's better to be a Has-Been, than a never was.
