In mid-September 2020, your CORVETTE TODAY host, Steve Garrett, approached Keith Cornett from CorvetteBlogger.com and suggested they join forces and try a News & Headlines podcast. And, if it goes well, maybe they could do this once per month. Well, the first News & Headlines show was so well received that Steve called Keith back and said, "Once a month won't cut it-we need to do this every other week!" That's when the every-other-week News & Headlines podcast show was born!

So this week's News & Headlines show commemorates the 2 year anniversary of the CORVETTE TODAY News & Headlines podcast with Keith Cornett from CorvetteBlogger.com. Here are some of the topics that Steve and Keith will cover....
