    We never begin a review with thanking our friends at KBLA for providing a platform for the Voice of the People.

    I recently started listening to VOR and not one day have I been disappointed. Zo brings topics that triggers self reflection and actionable behavior for grown folks who are on a journey of healing as an individual or couple. I can appreciate the Truth and his show is what the world needs regardless of your culture.
