Joy Nulisch, of Key West, is a true "Conch," as those born and raised on the island are known. She joined Gwen to talk about the legendary, near-professional level of the Key West High School Conch baseball program, the island's tight-knit, familial community that welcomes tourists and transplants without hesitation, adopting her dog, Tito, and what it's like retiring from the Monroe County School District after 35 years on the job.

Key West Side Tracks is hosted by Gwen Filosa, Keys Weekly digital editor and Pulitzer Prize winner for her part of covering the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in 2005. Keys Weekly is the only locally owned and operated news organization in the Florida Keys.
