I'm an old guy and it's taken me this long to find your podcast. I'm LOVING it!!!! I'm now getting caught up on past episodes as I walk my dog every day. I'm loving the energy that the Valkyries have brought to the Bay Area and your podcast fully promotes that energy!!! I don't normally get personally involved in local shows. Even with the many hours in all the years I've spent listening to knbr at work every day. But I'm moved today to send all my positive energy to your show and the Valkyries as a whole. Also, I'd would absolutely love to hear an interview with Julie Vanloo!!! I don't think I've ever been hit so hard by a release!! And this is coming from a guy that left the friend filled waters of Lake Mendocino to listen to Rick Barry, Clifford Ray and the rest of the 1975 Warriors win the NBA championship with my dad on a little transistor radio. Voiced by the great Bill King. Literally been a Bay Area sports fan all my life!!!
