2024-10-02 - Helene, First Hand

Jonny details his experiences with Hurricane (Tropical Storm, by
the time it got to him) Helene during the 35th Annual Gay Spirit
Visions Fall Conference at The Mountain Retreat and Learning Center
outside Highlands NC. He tells a story of adaptation and resilience
and communities coming together to deal with a crisis. In the back
half of the show, he takes on the misinformation already
circulating about the storm's damage and the Federal response to
it. In the process, he assesses both the political and spiritual
need to be aware of the world as it is, to respond mindfully to the
conditions on the ground.
