The Sherpa Screening Room: Meet Joel Carroll!

(Content warning for this episode.) Perspective. That's the word that kept creeping up in my head for this interview. And for 2 reasons. Reason 1 was me. See, I'm normally a stickler for being on time for interviews. And what happened? The night of our interview, guess who forgot to show up? ME!! Fortunately, Joel was fine with us starting a little late (like 40 minutes!). And he was kind enough to show concern that I was okay, when I wasn't there on time. Reason 2 is more apparent. A guy like Joel who did drugs, drank heavily, and got involved in gangs, now looks back at his former life and the mistakes that came with it. But now he wants to keep others from making those mistakes that he was fortunate to live through, with the release of "The Book of Joel". Have a listen to this interview, and maybe your perspective will change ( or you can change someone's perspective). And thanks for coming by Joel...and for being patient for a certain absent-minded podcast sherpa!
