Justin Farmer is one of the most recognizable people in Atlanta. He spent 17 years as the evening news anchor on WSB-TV, Atlanta's top-rated news station, and one of the biggest local market news stations in the country. News was a Farmer family business; Justin's father, Don Farmer, was an ABC news correspondent, a founding CNN anchor, and later the evening news anchor on WSB in Atlanta, a job he held until 1997. Ten years later, Justin landed the same job, at the same station. But let's rewind: this all meant that Justin grew up with an inside track to history. While he graduated from Boston College with a degree in political science, his family legacy and several internships at WSB naturally led him to broadcasting. His first TV job was as a sportscaster in Albany, Georgia. But a life in TV news is nomadic, and Justin moved from market to market before eventually landing back home in Atlanta and working for WSB. In 2007, he finally landed at the anchor desk. Everything was going well until the early 2020s, when in the span of 14 months, Justin lost both his biological parents and his beloved WSB co-anchor, Jovita Moore. This series of traumatic losses caused him to rethink what he wanted from life. He challenged himself to do something different, and his passion for investing and wealth management emerged as his new career goal. It wasn't an easy path. Studying for the Series 65 - Uniform Investment Adviser Law Exam, is a full-time job itself, but Justin climbed that mountain around his very high-profile full-time job. He passed the first time he took it. Then, on November 26, 2024, he signed off from WSB-TV with three hilarious words and launched Exit Wealth, a private investment firm that works with ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Our interview with Justin happened just weeks after he embarked on his second act. In this episode, Justin shares his history in TV news, some of the fun stories that are always part of live TV, his painful turning point, the thought process behind leaving what appears to be a “cushy” job, and the mountains he had to scale to make his second act a reality. Learn more about Justin by Googling his name and learn more about Exit Wealth by visiting their website. Second Act Stories theme music: "Between 1 and 3 am" by Echoes

We return after two weeks away to make big announcements regarding the future of the Podcast and FTCUTD Brand, and joining us is a super-crew of guest co-hosts: El Johnson & Ty Phillips of 2CentsFC, Sylvs of Shea Butter FC, and the newest member of the FTC crew, Mean Marc Nicholls! Given our primary ATL base, the big news kicks off with the Home Team Braves winning the World Series against the Houston Astros earlier in the week and Skye of Shea Butter jumps in to celebrate the win and gives instructions on how we need to celebrate here in the A! Kicking off the soccer talk, we catch up on recent firings in the game such as Nuno Espírito Santo getting sacked by Spurs, and the arrival of Antonio Conte and if Conte can spread his usual magic on a club not known to win trophies in recent memory (one trophy in over 20 years). Also meeting his end was Ronald Koeman at Barcelona, and we debate over whether club legend Xavi can turn things around given the dramatic financial issues at the club. While were away, Newcastle United was finally sold away to the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia and if their significant funds can make Newcastle an attractive location and club for the top players and managers in England and the rest of the world. And throughout all these happenings, despite a hammering against Liverpool and mixed results in the Champions League Ole Gunnar Solkjaer has retained his job at Man United. In the second half of the show, we chat with El and Ty about their recent trip to Detroit to cover an event launch by The Black Star Initiative and Detroit City FC, and the experience felt from the whole weekend. We wrap up with MLS talk going into Decision Day as several spots are still up for grabs in both the East and West conferences. Before we go into 2UP/2Down, we pay tribute to WSB Atlanta anchor Jovita Moore, who recently passed away from brain cancer.

Fair warning about today's episode of the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. It contains some mature themes discussed in an occasionally immature way. But then again, you could say that about every episode. We start by checking in with friend of the pod and choreographer extraordinaire Mr. Clayton Joshua Cameron. He's got a surprise announcement that has one member of the studio questioning their life choices. Then we discuss the connection between media personalities and their audience as we mourn the loss of Atlanta giant Jovita Moore. And finally, we close with some obligatory music news on this year's class of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and another edition of Dear Preston that you won't want to miss. Have thoughts on PT's answer? Give us a call and your message could be heard on the show. Call or Text 7704646024.
