Can a podcast offer hope during the darkest of times? After Hurricane Helene caused widespread devastation from Florida and Georgia through East Tennessee and my neck of the woods, Western North Carolina, leaving behind a trail of destruction, entire towns have been destroyed, resulting in numerous fatalities and hundreds of people still missing. In this episode, the community discusses the challenges faced by the locals of Marc's hometown of Asheville, North Carolina, including the lack of adequate media coverage, the efforts of disaster relief organizations to assist those in need, and the communication challenges following the destruction of power grids and cell phone towers. Tune in and learn how podcasting can make a difference in your local community.
