Welcome to a truly special episode, recorded live at the FMS studios in the heart of Fayetteville, Arkansas! In this exclusive in-person interview, we're thrilled to be joined by the remarkable Greg Thomas, former Arkansas Razorback quarterback and talented author. From breaking barriers as the University of Arkansas' first starting African American quarterback to achieving tremendous success on the field, Greg's journey is a testament to the power of perseverance, hard work, and resilience.

During our conversation, we'll explore the stories behind his critically acclaimed memoir, "No Doubting Thomas: Hawg Whisperer - My Arkansas Memoirs," delving into his experiences under legendary coaches, overcoming racial bias, and the unforgettable bonds he formed with teammates. Recorded live in Fayetteville, this is an interview you won't want to miss!

Join us as we celebrate Greg Thomas' extraordinary legacy, both on and off the field, and discover the captivating tales of triumph, adversity, and the unyielding spirit of an Arkansas Razorback legend.
