Wilton sat down with Thomas "Snacks" Lee, a former player and student manager of the Jackson State University men's basketball team and a 2020 ESPN ESPY Award winner.
For those who may not remember, Snacks knocked down the biggest three pointer of his life in a JSU victory versus Arkansas Pine Bluff on March 2 that led him to become a virals sensation -- landing him all over the media in places such as ABC's Good Morning America, TMZ Sports, The Athletic, The Washington Post, The Undefeated, Pardon My Take, ESPN as well as Pardon The Interruption, The Dan Le Batard and Around the Horn.
But for Snacks, the goal was not to become famous or to become a social media star. It was his way of living out his dream but more importantly... using his platform to serve as an example that dreams can come true and that anything is possible. Or, in his words, "just stay down and wait for your moment."
Sit back and get ready to listen as he discusses his love for basketball, the name "Snacks" his love for music, his desire to give back to the community and more.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
