Wonderful journey to listen to!

Always a great podcast! From the host’s obvious music appreciation to the lives of people who are old and new Nebraskans! Makes me appreciate this state I’ve been living in for past 32 years.

Highs and lows

I was really getting into this podcast and then they took a break. While it happens, it is still disappointing. Liked the local stories and the historical ones.
