S1-E13 - To Hell(ene) in a Handbasket

Christy & Georganna weren't going to record this week in the wake of Hurricane Helene and the unfathomable damage caused in our community, but they decided to go for it in the event that there's something to share that might bring some level of comfort in the form of their own vulnerability. Resources discussed in this episode - ways to give and receive: For hyperlocal assistance and the ability to give directly to your neighbors in need, visit The Funk at 1208 N. Pinellas Ave, Tarpon Springs - in the small shopping center just north of the Anclote Rive on the east side of Alt 19. They are in dire need of: personal hygiene items, diapers, ready to eat food with easy open tops, water, cleaning supplies, and paper goods. No more clothing is being accepted at this time!

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
