Welcome To The Community Voice Podcast!
The Community Voice was created to give you the opportunity learn about other folks within the gspn.tv community on a deeper level. I, Cliff Ravenscraft, have the awesome privilege of interacting with hundreds of members from the gspn.tv community on a weekly basis via email, phone calls, the gspn.tv Community Site, Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn. This podcast was created to highlight some of these folks I’ve come to know in an effort to introduce them to the entire community.
While this show is not currently being produced on regular basis. It is one show that I desire to bring back at some point in the future. In the event that I get around to producing a random episode here and there, feel free to use the subscription links below. I will do my best to also promote these random episodes through the social networks and on our mailing list.
