Don’t understand the issues being discussed in the media? Can’t decide who’s right in an ongoing debate?The goal of my podcast is to give you the knowledge that relates to current events in Georgia and about Georgia. Knowledge is a dangerous thing. A person who possesses knowledge begins to ask questions.
