Beyond Texas with W.F. Strong
As I already have a podcast produced by the Texas Standard, Stories from Texas, I wanted to launch a new one that would go beyond the limits of where my stories are typically corralled. I'm calling it Beyond Texas so that I can share the many inspirational and astounding stories I know that don't fit the theme I'm most known for. Here you will get me, for better or worse, unabridged.

Adam Shepherd arrived by bus at midnight in Charleston , SC, with only $25.00 in his pocket. He gave himself one year to pull himself up by his bootstraps. Relying only on his high school diploma and with no skilled labor background to claim, he had to rise up out of homelessness, get himself an apartment, furnish it, buy a car and put 2500 dollars in savings as a safety net, all within one year. This the story of how he tried to do this.
