No open today, no sponsors, and we appreciate our sponsors for allowing me to air this commercial free.

This is an interview and a topic that means a lot to me.

And so today, I always say listening is optional, not today.

Today I'm going to ask you to do something because this is super important to me.

I'm going to ask you to do something that I do a very poor job of doing.

I'm simply going to ask you to listen.

Thank you.

February 14, 2018.

A day I'll never forget.

A day my city will never forget.

I remember that day so vividly.

Driving down the sawgrass expressway, like I do every single day, driving home from work.

I was two, maybe three exits away from Parkland, Florida, where I have lived for over a decade now.

I was talking to my friend Tom, I did not feel this is a tough part right here because it's something swept over me.

And I'll never forget that feeling.

As if suddenly I was the only car on the expressway.

So I looked at the rear view mirror and realized that was not a feeling.

It was a reality.

And what I saw when I looked through the mirror coming up behind me was a fleet of police cars, ambulances, military vehicles.

I quickly pulled to the side of the expressway and I let him go by and jump back on the expressway, continued the conversation with my friend Tom.

Didn't think much of it.

I want you to think about that.
