After having newspapers in every single Southern state review his first book and after the Atlanta Journal- Constitution named it one of 12 self-help books to read in 2018, he published two more entitled He Spoke with Authority: Get, then Give the Advantage of Confidence and The Criminal: The Power of An Apology. These did not receive as much media attention as his first, and some dubbed Fellows as a “one-hit wonder.”
In April of 2021, after having moved to Houston from Atlanta the previous summer, Fellows was poised to prove his critics wrong. He did so with the release of Mrs. Dubose’s Last Wish: The Art of Embracing Suffering. He participated in a record-setting 77 TV interviews in 29 states. The book was also the most reviewed book in the state of Texas in 2021. Fellows would publish five books in 2021, all of which received considerable media attention throughout the country.
Before he published Mrs. Dubose’s Last Wish in April of 2021, he shifted part of his focus and energy to politics—specifically, education reform. Fellows stumbled upon an interesting correlation between ACT/SAT scores and worker readiness during his stint at Morehouse College as the Competition Sales Team Instructor. He coached the team in 2016 and 2017. After being in touch with a Congresswoman’s office in Texas, he thought he was going to get a grant from the federal government to continue his work. He did not get the grant, however. Undeterred, Fellows decided to take his study to the media and from December 2021 to October 2022, no individual other than Secretary Miguel Cardona received more media attention than Fellows. Fellows interviewed with 13 affiliates in 10 states.
A few months after OpenAI released ChatGPT, Fellows wrote a report on how artificial intelligence would affect the workforce and how our educational systems should adapt to it. He has interviewed with dozens of stations across the country on it. It is interesting to note even before ChatGPT was released, in an interview with Cordell Wright ABC Sioux Falls, SD on the aforementioned education reform he was working on, he told Wright that artificial intelligence is “coming and it’s already here.”
In the fall of 2023, after the “Big Three” automakers, Ford, GM, and Stellantis (formerly Chrysler), all went on strike for the first time in hopes that they would receive better pay packages as a result of striking, Fellows wrote a report on the intricacies of the UAW strike. In the report, Fellows not only conducted some of his own research, but also extrapolated from Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations." Affiliate stations in Kentucky, Texas, and Indiana interviewed him on this. Six months later, when there was talk of major UAW strikes in The South, Fellows interviewed with several stations in Tennessee and Alabama.
Fellows would continue his interviews on labor unions in the fall of 2024 when he interviewed with several stations on the Port Strike. He also interviewed with ABC Seattle several times on the historic Boeing strike.
In December of 2024, he interviewed with several stations on the Starbucks strike. A week later in late December of 2024, and in early January of 2025, he interviewed with several stations on the Port Strike again because it was potentially going to resume on January 15th. It didn’t end up resuming. A few weeks later, he interviewed with both ABC and CBS Seattle on the impending Costco Strike. It didn’t end up happening.
In all of his interviews with the media in regards to his interviews on union labor strikes, he sought to give fair and balanced commentary by striking the balance between these two quotes by Adam Smith who is known as the Father of Capitalism:
“It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities, but of their advantages.”
“No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable. It is but equity, besides, that they who feed, clothe, and lodge the whole body of the people, should have such a share of the produce of their own labour as to be themselves tolerably well fed, clothed, and lodged.”
In February of 2025, Fellows started extensively interviewing across the country with media outlets on the tariffs that President Donald Trump announced. In Op-ed in The Virginian-Pilot entitled, “The Cost of Protectionism: How Tariffs Will Hurt South Hampton Roads and Beyond,” he quoted Adam Smith who said in The Wealth of Nations, “In general, if any branch of trade, or any division of labour, be advantageous to the public, the freer and more general the competition, it will always be the more so.” Generally speaking, although he commented on many stations that he was not in favor of tariffs, on CBS Chattanooga he admitted “One good thing that came from [the tariffs] was increased border patrol from Canada and Mexico. Obviously there are a lot of Fentanyl going across the border and there are a lot of undocumented immigrants who have entered the United States under the Biden Administration.”
When it comes to be interviewed about politics, Fellows prefers to comment on things that only affect the American people; he’s never commented on matters like the Bud Light-Dylan Mulvaney situation or the Jason Aldean song, “Try That in a Small Town” even if he does have an opinion on it.
In 2022, Fellows added two more books to his grand total of 10. When he’s not writing books or working on political policy, you can find him at his “real job” running his AI Strategy Consultancy CommenceAI or playing golf. Always one to look up to mentors, he considers Bill McDermott, former CEO of SAP, and present-day CEO of Service Now, to be his greatest inspiration, commenting that McDermott has “taught him more about life than sales.” McDermott’s rags-to-riches story is featured in each one of his books.
