Love!!
I love this radio show, and am very grateful you turned it into a podcast. The topics are local, relevant, and stuff we may not hear about through other news sources. I also love the intimacy of having callers on the show. Makes it more authentic. Nice to hear opinions and thoughts of others. Thank you!!
