  • My First Concert

    “My First Concert” is a great show part of the Talk North Network. Have listen to all of them. After listening to Paul Charchian. We need a list of all the Bands Paul talked about. We need the Band list over playlist. Need that too on “Chin Music” when they talk about songs or Bands. Like listening on my Runs or Walks.

    I love the show with LaVelle and Roy. Get rid of the music talk. That’s not why we listen to podcast.

  • Race

    John and Jim bring race into many stories. Why does John even have to mention race with a African American qualifying for the state speech event. She is a gifted speech participant it doesn’t need to be qualified with her race. Her skin color has nothing to do with her accomplishment. Every time you mention race you cause more division.
