Do You Even Live Here?
Beacon Media is supporting and partnering with small town Mayors Preston Blakely (Fletcher, N.C.) and Dalton George (Boone, N.C.) on a new podcast (Do You Even Live Here?) that centers small towns, communities and belonging. Preston and Dalton don’t come from a typical political background — and this dynamic, fun, curious show reflects their Western North Carolina upbringing, experience and values. Dalton is the youngest mayor in the state and Preston isn’t far behind, so you’ll also hear a bit about Pokemon and gaming, too. Come along for the ride and subscribe below! Coming to a radio station near you soon.
