A kid from Lexington went to Huntsville looking for opportunity. Ten years later, he left looking for peace.

In this solo episode, I trace the jobs, relationships, mistakes, ambition and insecurity that kept pulling me back to Huntsville. I also wrestle with the city itself: its growth, its manufactured sense of community, its relationship with status and security, and the complicated history beneath the Rocket City story.

This is not a definitive account of Huntsville. It is my account of what the city gave me, what it rewarded in me and why I finally realized the life I had spent years building was no longer the life I wanted.

There is a sun. There is a moon. Two things can be true at once.
