It's the monthly Economic Recovery Corps Fellow "Spin and Chat!"
In this episode, Neil and Will sit down with the ERC Fellow Gaby Seltzer and surprise guest Bret Sweet of the City of Antioch, CA. This is the first interview with a Fellow and their Host! Hear them both describe the ERC process and their reasoning behind deciding to pursue the path of Fellowship...from both perspectives. You'll hear some challenges, but also the instant impact they are seeing from the tasks being performed, but also from the capacity building opportunity that the ERC Fellowship affords. Take a listen as they display their passion for the area and how their work is making a difference...while getting a glimpse into what makes them tick and their apparent fascination with food - and Cracker Barrel. You might even hear Neil's opinion on an iconic moment (sad but true) in American History...and some Appalachia books you can read - other than "Hillbilly Elegy." Also, don't forget the #AppBiz(s) of the week: Idly Dosa Cafe; and CoBiz Richmond!
