It's a landmark episode! Somehow, this is the 100th episode of Local Zero. A big thanks to our listeners, guests, and supporters, without whom, we definitely would not have made it to three figures.

One last time, we're joined by our co-host Becky, who has some news to share about her new adventure.

The team mull over their highlights since starting the pod in 2021, and what the next 100 episodes might look like!
