Lacey does a great job, I live here and every episode I learn something I didn’t know about my birthplace and the city I call home. Keep up the great work!
I love how personable these conversations are; I’m learning more about local Elyites that I want to meet, or friends I already know! I have also gotten more involved in Ely events from hearing about them here, and having links in the show notes to connect. I’ve shared this podcast with friends to give a taste of how awesome Ely is. I really like the variety of guests too. Thank you!
