Summary
Today is the 300th episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, and a lot has happened since episode one…
The podcast journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. From taking a seat with Chris Hansen to joining forces with Paris Hilton in protest to my appearance on TV in Let Us Prey: A Ministry of Scandals, the show has opened doors I never could have anticipated.
On today’s episode, I want to take a few minutes to break down some of my favorite memories from the last couple of years – from favorite guests to favorite books – and my big goals moving forward.

| 0:41.9 | and let's just say a lot has happened since episode one of the show. From having a seat with |

| 0:55.5 | Max, this show has led me places that I never could have imagined. On today's episode, I want |
