Hay Kings Podcast - 1 Year Anniversary

I cannot express enough how much gratitude I have for our first year of the Hay Kings podcast! We have talked about important topics that let us continue our dedication to education, connection, and innovation. I also cannot thank our guests, listeners and especially our sponsor, Vermeer, enough for all that they do. Without all of you, we would not have a podcast and could not grow our Hay Kings community as we are today. My sincerest appreciation to all, Jon Paul.
