  • Great job

    I grew up in Boston and now live in LA and have zero experience living in a rural area, which is why I like this podcast. It’s educational about the issues that matter in rural America, and that should matter to the rest of the country too. The host is positive and enthusiastic and does a great job explaining all of the topics.
