Show Notes

Chuck Hagel joins the Common Fans to discuss growing up across several small Nebraska towns; playing high school football at Columbus St. Bonaventure (now Columbus Scotus); his love for the Huskers and Memorial Stadium; his favorite Husker memories, and least favorite Husker opponent (spoiler: it's Colorado). 

We also discuss the lessons he carried with him from small town Nebraska all the way to the U.S. Capitol and the Pentagon, and we get into some lessons in leadership from a man who has done it on the battlefield, in the corporate board room, in the halls of Congress, and at the Defense Department. 

You do not want to miss this one, Common Fans. Pour yourself a big glass of Big Red Kool Aid and enjoy this episode of the Common Fan Podcast.
