A hand surgeon by day and a musician by night. This episode we bring you "Doc Roc" front man for the local group "The Troumatics". DR. Stephen J. Troum, MD, FACS has made a name for himself in the world of Surgery of the Hand. He has been quoted as a medical expert in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and other national publications.

Did I forget to include something? Let me know please! [email protected] About the show! This Interview style podcast or variety interview podcast originates out of Fort Worth Texas. We've recorded episodes in the Fort Worth Stockyards, many homes and offices, we've traveled all over the DFW area, and now currently we have set up shop in Austin Texas at the foot of the Hill Country. Its always been the purpose of the show to be a true mobile podcast with a mobile podcast studio. While we grow the show and continue to make friends, we are in the process of what one of our guests calls "bridge building". Simply put, bridge building is the process of working on your dreams while maintaining your day job! Andrew Turner, the host of Fort Worth Roots, is no stranger to the perils of being in business for himself. His first business was a landscape design business that landed him a role on HGTV with Andy and Ashley Williams on the show " Flip or Flop Fort Worth. Andrew and his little company appeared on 6 episodes of the show. This was the first time he had been part of a production this size. Eventually the show was finished filming and two years later Andrew left the world of landscape design. With experience in a dozen or more industries Andrew finds it easy to connect with almost all of his guests. The show continues to evolve and change with each episode. Bringing more interesting content to every recording is the goal and maintaining a feel of authenticity is paramount. We hope you enjoy the show and, we would love to hear from you! This Texas Based Podcast grows best when people tell us what the enjoy or what they cannot stand. Let us know. Email us, [email protected] . Do you think you would like to be a guest on a podcast?
