February 2025 - Two Flahertys, One Show: Work Ethic, People Skills, and the Privilege of Pleasantry
WYSL/ Wise Home Energy Show
Jeff Flaherty brings his brother Tom on the show, and the conversation goes well beyond home energy. Tom is the Webster Town Supervisor finishing his third term, and together they talk about what their parents actually taught them without calling it a lesson: a family paper route, nights and weekends at rental apartments, and a father who took customer calls on golf trips. They dig into why people skills matter more than GPA, why the smartest people in the room sometimes fail in the real world, and what happens when a 16-year-old fills up a gas tank and does the math for the first time. Tom also shares why he's stepping away after four years in office and why he thinks career politicians are bad for everyone. Jeff closes with a quick story about a Corn Hill homeowner whose emails were so charming she moved up the waitlist without asking.
