Today’s podcast is a not-cast.  I took a break this week to speak directly to all three of my listeners.  We need you, podcast-America.  We’re looking at the Future of the Podcast and we’re trying to envision how we’d like the ‘cast to evolve.  So we need your feedback.  Email me at jmartin@appcnc.org and tell me what you think, what you like, what you don’t and what you’d like to hear from the podcast.  Do this and all your podcasty dreams can come true.  It can happen to you, if you are among the very podcasty responses I hear.

Till next time, keep up the good work!
