For anyone new to podcasting, voice-over or other creative audio production, I have re-recorded my first episode as an example of the enormous improvement in my media presence and delivery. As the original Compact Case episode remains on this feed, the two can serve as a A/B review of my first recording and this one some 5 years later. I hope it encourages you to continue your creative journey. I would like to recognize and thank, Stan Shields, Jordan Rich, Candy O'Terry and Liz Brunner for their mentorship and so readily sharing their invaluable expertise with me.

Never stop creating. May you bring the lost to the light!

The not so famous contribution of a well-know woman in history is the story in this episode.
