It is great to be back with you!
As we prep to close out another fantastic year filled with one accomplishment after another for โLight โEm Upโ โฆ which included new sponsorships โฆ and new underwriters - we wanted to focus on what is most important to us other than searching out the truth.
We wanted to take some special time to recognize you, our listeners for your (TSL) time spent listening to us throughout this past year.
We thank you for another fantastic year of growth and achievements, and express our appreciation for your wonderful engagement and your role in helping us grow to 97 countries globally as we close out Season 3.
We never thought this kind of success would be something that we could attain, and we never were concerned about our growth at the inception of this project.
Initially we set out to tell the truth about topics of importance in the U.S. criminal justice system --- and look what it has become! We have been able to advocate for so many people.
The corporate plan is to take the remainder of the year off in order to rest for a week, recover and enjoy some quality time with our families.
We then will begin the process for Season 4 of Light โEm Up where we strive to achieve new goals and break the 100 country-mark with the reach of our podcast.
Also, to add more sponsors and underwriters.
The truth is under attack โ and the truth is worth defending!
We have labored tirelessly to dig deep, vast and wide to bring you a special insight that you really wonโt find anywhere else.
We are loyal, consistent and dedicated to you, our listeners.
We are truly here for you and because of you!
