Behind the Scenes at the Localist: Meet the Team

This week, we’re taking you behind the scenes and introducing our team members! Alana, outreach manager, is the newest addition with a passion for plants and a history in retail. Brad, sound engineer from the beginning, is a musician and general local music culture enthusiast. Michelle, show runner from the start, is a book lover and stickler for finding links. And Beka, production assistant, is another incredibly helpful newer addition with a tech background. They all share their favorite episodes and local shops, and why shopping local is important to them. Full show notes at LocalistPodcast.com.
