Heidi Jackson

After retirement, Myron and Dana hit the road! This special BONUS episode is one of the first Unfiltered episodes born on the road. We hope there are many more to follow! Heidi Jackson is an extraordinary individual! Standing tall at 6'8", she made waves during her college basketball career at Vanderbilt University. Heidi was a dominant force on the court, earning numerous accolades, including being named a Kodak First Team All-American in 1993 and leading Vanderbilt to its only Final Four appearance that same year. Off the court, she was admired for her charisma and was even voted Homecoming Queen by her peers in 1993. Her family is equally remarkable, with five towering sons whose heights range from 6'3" to 7'0". Dana randomly met her at a Goodwill in Mississippi while we were trekking across the southern United States. After a friendly conversation, Heidi invited us to her home for dinner. She is a warm and kind-hearted person, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and her family. Visit the Electric Brew
