 David Shelton is probably best known in his hometown as the Leaf-Chronicle columnist who advocates for LGBTQ rights, giving a voice to a community that all too often goes unheard. That alone is a unique experience, but he was also part of the Leaf-Chronicle's advertising team when the newspaper's office was destroyed by a tornado. So naturally, Matt had to bring him to the show! THIS PODCAST IS AVAILABLE ON THESE PLATFORMS

Many people don't want to remember 2020, and for the most part, we don't blame them. For all the misery it brought, though, 2020 was an eventful year. From the pandemic, to the Black Lives Matter protests, to the Presidential election, it likely changed our society -- and journalism -- forever. Leaf-Chronicle Sports Writer George Robinson joined me to talk about that fact, and reflect on all that happened this year.
