Calyn Whedbee is the creator of the podcast and is responsible for production, post-production, and hosting the show. Cal is joined by co-host Linda Wiggins (AKA Wigs) who also assists with research and development of the monthly segment Cactus Connections. Additionally, Tricia Sikes assists with co-hosting the show.We dropped our first podcast in the summer of 2022. And, honestly, given the demographic we are working with, we had absolutely no idea whether any of it would fly. To our amusement and surprise, however, our listening base is growing --“poco a poco.” To date we have over two thousand listeners from around the world--mostly from the United States, Canada, and Mexico. We feel this is a major accomplishment considering much of our target audience hasn’t yet discovered podcasts, much less decided to incorporate them into their daily lives. The primary focus of TLATC is to ascertain what it is that foreign nationals living and working here--full or part time-- find so attractive about the area; why they move here; and what they think is deserving of more attention. We hope to capture and store the many stories the expatriate community has about the history and evolution of the area and our impact on it. However, we don't necessarily stick to a script, so our conversations often lead us to some unchartered territory. "Please Like, Subscribe, and Comment where ever you pick up your favorite podcasts.
