In My Footsteps Podcast Episode 119: 3rd Podcast Anniversary, Cape Cod Community College, NFL Sports Talk Football, Top Pro Athletes I Saw Play Live(11-8-2023)

It is another special episode of the show this week as Episode 119 marks the 3-year anniversary of the podcast. We take a look back at the genesis of the show including a clip of my first intro in Episode 1, and how my sobriety was interwoven into the creation of the podcast. I also share words of encouragement for those who might want to start their own show.
If you're not looking to start your own podcast you can still look to improve your own life by going to(or back to) college. Perhaps you can find your inspiration as we take a look back at the long and winding road that led to the creation of Cape Cod Community College more than 60 years ago.
We go way Back In the Day and look at a trailblazer in the field of sports video games. NFL Sports Talk Football(featuring Joe Montana) on the Sega Genesis was ahead of its time in the early 1990s and we'll look back at what made it special. Hint: the announcing was a big part!
In keeping with sports this week's Top 5 takes a look at the greatest pro athletes that I have been able to see play live. Boston sports fans, and fans in general, will recognize a few of the names.
There will also be a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule featuring the infamous moment when Art Modell announced he was moving his Cleveland Browns football team to Baltimore.
