Area Code: Batavia13 Tammi 2025

How Your Favorite Episodes Impacted Us in 2024

As we round out our end of the year coverage, I thought it would be a good idea to take a look back at last year and at the podcast since it began one year ago. On this episode, I revisit the five (okay, six) most popular episodes of the year, and talk through the ways each conversation impacted me personally as a Batavia resident.
