Behind the scenes fun, wrapping up a video podcast.

Sooo... we filmed a few "practice" podcasts, it's been fun! There are at least 2 available now, with plenty more on the way where we'll highlight community members, businesses, etc. We hope you'll join us on the way. As soon as I have all the things straight, I'll share the links and all of that, but for now, let us know what you want to see!
