Podcasts by Liz and Miranda: Finding the Forest through the Trees
A conversation between two friends: one liberal and one conservative - who share a love of teaching, literature, zombie running, conversation, and hiking in the great outdoors. This podcast is about us navigating our journey in a Southern "Red" state and very red county. It is a place for discussing friendships, life experiences, and hot button issues. Join us as we bring some of our hiking conversations to the air waves.
