#DamienTalksSGV 28 – Meet Our New Correspondent, Brian Velez! And One Last Preview of the 626.
Listeners are going to see some major changes in the podcast in the coming weeks and months. We are happy to announce the first of those changes today.
Today, #DamienTalks with Brian Velez. You may know Brian as a staff member at BikeSGV. Brian is going to be joining this podcast as a correspondent, helping to round out our podcast with a series of “person-on-the-street” interviews to either supplement or anchor stories that we cover.
Of course, #DamienTalks is a lousy name for a podcast that has a lot more people talking than just Damien. A change in the name and logo will be coming in the near future as well.
But for today, welcome to the team Brian! Damien and Brian talk about Brian’s history, some of the things they plan to work on together. Of course, we also spend a lot of time previewing 626 Golden Streets, the mammoth 17-mile open streets event coming to the SGV on March 5 – a week from Sunday.
#DamienTalks is supported by Foothill Transit, offering car-free travel throughout the San Gabriel Valley with connections to the new Gold Line Stations across the Foothills and Commuter Express lines traveling into the heart of downtown L.A. To plan your trip, visit Foothill Transit. “Foothill Transit. Going Good Places.”
