Take a listen as Tim and Allison take us through working in state-focused newsrooms and how they act as the responsible arbiters of information between their community and national issues. Co-host Drew F. Lawrence speaks with both reporters about the challenges of transitioning as a veteran, their fellowships and the joys of the community that make it rich with professional opportunity and support.
