Janet Michael does a great job keeping her topics specific to the Valley, while having a seemingly endless variety at the same time. Her conversations with guests are very fun and informative. She often asks questions that had just come into my own mind while listening. I find myself scheduling lunch so I can catch her radio show, and it’s great to have the podcast available when I miss one.
The Valley Today is such a gem for our community. Janet and her guests highlight the best resources in the Northern Shenandoah Valley and shine a light on issues facing residents, from non-profit and event spotlights to topics like mental health and public safety. It is a true joy to hear the voices of those in our community address issues that have an impact on our lives.
Great content and very entertaining.
