On today's show, we have an exclusive opportunity to interview Sam Walton's

right hand man, Tommy Smith.

First of all, his desk was wobbly.

It had an old cylinder block on one corner, but it was press wood.

It's like desk you buy these cheap office furniture stores today.

That's kind of what his desk was.

And then his couch, the couch in front of his desk was an old vinyl couch.

Tommy Smith shares with us about the character, the drive, the intentionality,

and the management style that allowed Sam Walton to build America's largest big box retail store.

Sam Walton was famous for flying his own private plane from point A to point B

as opposed to flying commercial.

And the man who rode with him on those flights was none other than Mr. Tommy Smith today's guest.

Some shows don't need a celebrity to write her to introduce the show.

But this show does.

Here we go.
