Fantastic Listen

Recently started calling PxP for the local college and I have learned so much from Joel and his guests! He asks great questions of great broadcasters. Would love to hear some of the technical side of it too, but other than that, this is a fantastic listen with incredible insight into the industry. Love hearing all the background stories and how everyone got in to the business. Thanks Joel!
