After more than three years behind the mic, Brian Johnson records his final episode of Youth Voice Amplified.  Join Gennessa and Brian as they revisit the early days of building the podcast from scratch, laugh through behind-the-scenes travel mishaps and recording bloopers, revisit powerful conversations with youth and adult allies, and hear surprise messages from former guests whose lives Brian touched along the way.  It's a celebration of friendship, purpose, and a mission that will continue long after his final sign-off.
