Episode 7 - Kenneth "Cash" Yount Oct 24, 2023

Wow. This interview left Amy and I speechless. Recorded as episode 10, we made the decision to release this moving episode earlier than planned. Cash is a well-spoken, involved, and impactful student at the Dayton High School. He recently served as the sole student-representative on the District's Book Reconsideration Committee. You won't want to miss how this brave student redirected his anger and trauma into life of duty and civic-servitude.
