Great Reflections and Stories
This is a wonderful podcast. The podcasts weave together a hodgepodge of stories of people from San Antonio and the surrounding region. The personalities are rich, the stories are memorable, and I think it wonderful that people are sharing snippets of their lives to perhaps communicate their experiences to the younger generations.
