In advance of the Walk To Defeat ALS event (September 6th in Look Park, Northampton MA at 10 a.m.). Adelle and Lou dedicate this episode to Adelle’s mom Valerie, the inspiration for Adelle’s walking ‘team’ Valerie’s Visionaries.

 Lou plays a fresh version of the Raw Impressions theme, Adelle reads her acclaimed “Why I Walk” essay, and Lou plays Bob Dylan”s She BelongsTo Me. We hope she enjoys it all! We love you mom!
