Description

”You can only control a small amount of things in your life. And almost all pain in life is when you're focused on things that you can't control.”Welcome to another episode of Delay the Decay with Dan Harty, featuring our guest Spencer Schubert, an accomplished sculptor renowned for his likeness sculptures of notable figures such as Bill Snyder, Buck O'Neill, and Marcus Aurelius.
