Season 3 of A Little Something Extra is starting off with a bang, featuring John and Mark Cronin the father/son duo behind John’s Crazy Socks! If you are not familiar with their story, this is the perfect place to learn it. Mark (father) tells us about his journey, both as a professional and as a father of a son with Down syndrome. John then tells us the story behind his crazy sock empire! Their story takes us from their humble beginnings of hand-delivering socks, door to door, to them becoming one of the largest sock companies in the world! This story, fueled by a lack of opportunity and value seen by the world, leads us to a greater discussion about the importance of developing careers for those with Intellectual disabilities. Finally, it wouldn’t be A Little Something Extra without some laughs, moments of inspiration and dare I say…TIPPSSSS!
We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
