When I first made this Podcast it was my original idea to also release the episodes without my ranting in it. So you could use just the vocal exercises to recap, or drive to your gig warming up, or, whatever they might be useful for to you.  Turns out, I didn't follow through with that idea... So, This is me, following through with that idea...  I will release this first one to the public as an example for what I'm trying to create, but these will only be available to patrons via my Patreon page at:  https://www.patreon.com/Shelly_BrownSorry this is such a tease episode! You'll be sitting there all hungry for some fresh goodies and it's right back to number one! awwwww. It's ok, new one is coming through the pipes.
