It's really awesome.
Hi! Nicole!
How's it going? It's so nice to see your new podcasts. I came here a couple of times in early March(and there were no new one at that time) but I didn't have a chance recently. I didn't listen to the new podcasts yet, but soon I will. I just wanted to say Hello first. KNUE is still going on with new trainees. There's nothing wrong and it's natural but...it's kind of a strange feeling. I've been really busy at my new school. Everything is so different and time really flies. I miss KNUE a lot. KNUE will remain as one the happiest memories in my life. I'll contonuw to come and listen to you and Clint's voice. Be healthy and happy!
