Customer Reviews
Great Show!
I was a big fan of SaltCast before the name change and this first episode proves nothing has been lost in the transition. How Sound is perfect for anyone trying to learn how to make radio, or anyone who just loves great public radio pieces and wants to peek behind the scenes. Highly recommended.
