Episode 8 of Main & Local is in the air!

This episode was actually a live stream we did on Facebook where Sam, Erin, Tara, and Emily spoke to Athena Minor with Ohio County Healthcare about the COVID-19 vaccines being distributed in Ohio County.

This was a very informative podcast with a lot of good information.

To end the podcast we also touched on the protest at the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., as it was just coming to an end while the live stream was happening.

As usual, like, subscribe and all that good stuff and thank you for listening or watching.

After a bit of a layoff, Main & Local episode 7 is in the air!

This was a bit of a different episode as this was a live stream on Facebook with Dr. Bailey Phelps of Ohio County Hospital and was focused on COVID-19. A lot of good and interesting information with participation from viewers with questions and comments. A few technical hiccups as this was our first try at this, but all went really well.

We hope to do more of these in the future.
