Nov 2025 Veterans Day Special - John McCall Shares about a Life Well Lived and His Boys

Thank you for your service John!

This November, we welcome Lookout Mountain resident of many years, Mr. John McCall. In this episode, John shares about his family and early life on Lookout and then about how he joined the U.S. Army and served before returning to UVA. Later he arrived back in Chattanooga and to his alma mater to teach and to coach.

Thousands of families and boys later - he is STILL going strong on The Ridge!

Join in and hear about his mentors and then how he became a mentor to so many.

This is a great story for so many reasons and certainly for those considering a career in education or the military or coaching as he displays the true power of excellence in mentorship.

This episode will not disappoint and will leave you grateful for people like John McCall in the world. THANK YOU Mr McCall - great job on your first podcast!
