The Builder's Journey


Dec 17, 2020

As we close in on the end of this crazy year that has been 2020, it’s important to remember that many of these issues will pass over into 2021. We’ve got a bit of a change-up for today’s episode with co-host Scott Turnipseed, Mayor of Eagle, interviewing Chris Pates. Chris is both a resident of Eagle and a long-time friend of Scott’s from their rugby days back in college. The fellas are here to discuss the current state of the world and where we all go from here as the vaccines make their way into availability!

  • Why Chris and Scott both decided to move to Eagle
