410 episodes - English - Latest episode: 12 days ago - ★★★★★ - 25 ratings

On 'Finding Subjects Podcast' I discuss motivating and inspiring topics I find on my journey through life and often dive deep into stories and adventures of growing up in Southeastern Pennsylvania, USA.

I utilize my faith in God as my compass, then apply any lessons learned in a never-ending quest to become a better person than I was yesterday, while finding the humor in life along the way.
