Listeners,
As I begin the next leg of life's journey, it is a bittersweet moment in regards to Good Gumbo Radio. The goal of Good Gumbo Radio was to start relevant conversations and provide a format for people of all walks of life to add their own "fil`e" to the pot. As Good Gumbo Radio sunsets, my ask is for you to be the rational voice and the compassionate ear and continue to have solutions driven conversations.
Love and Respect,
lily(like the flower)
