The HOVG Podcast: Joel Hawkins

This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen talk with Joel Hawkins from the House of David Baseball Research Project.

Joel educates the boys on the history of The House of David and separates the fact from the fiction when it comes to the bearded, baseball-playing group of Michigan colonists that you’ve probably never heard of. Until now.
