As we begin the New Year, there are plenty of new events happening in the realm of our country's political environment. Yep, bet you have heard that before. Tennessee Girls: Talk Masters will now be Tennessee Girls&Boys: Talk Masters. We have a new format and more indepth one on one discussions. Today, our first new episode, will be with me joined with one of our new co-hosts, my brother Joe Serna, and he has some pretty insightful analogies to share with us as I run my mouth and ask questions.

It has been one bumpy ride for us and now it's time for us to say adios. We do a recap of some of the topics which we covered during our 3 seasons of podcasting. We appreciate ALL of our guests, whom we tried to thank during this recording. As there were so many, we had a difficult time remembering all the names. SO...here are the rest of the names of guests that we were honored to have with us...Lolita Carver-Kinnard/Retired School Secretary and famed toothpuller, Terri LaPoint/Author of "Voices that will not be Silenced", Jim Wakefield/Live Audio Production, Samantha Pague/Author of "Economic War Circle" series, Brian Sanders/Film Producer/Director of "Why Stand with Israel", Moises Garza/Administrator of Mexican Genealogy Page on FB and author, Chaplain Alvin Goodwin, Amber Beckham Northrop/Professional Photographer, Andrew Daily/Author of "Esepranza", and Mikael Byrd/Theater Actor. While we are no longer recording, you can still catch all of the interviews we did on Spotify, iHeart Radio, Pandora, Amazon and others.

I can only imagine how it would feel to be the daughter of someone whose work is so fabulous that it resides in the permanent collection of art at the Smithsonian Institute, London England and numerous other art collections. Paul Lancaster was a Nashville local until his passing. His artwork had become popular and sought out even before his death, and is now reaching a fevered pitch. If you never heard of him before, you should definitely listen in and see if you can locate one of the collections which were created by this quiet man who left a treasure trove of art behind.

Listen in to our hometown friend Lolita. She has some interesting and unique stories to share. If audio is a little fuzzy with her at first, it will straighten out. You might want to turn your volume up a little bit. Her stories are both moving and hilarious.

As we wind down the road of our final season and the conclusion of our podcast series, we welcome back Archbishop Ken McNatt who is infinitely equipped to teach on relevant issues from the word. The impact of our words cannot be overstated. We never know what to expect on our program. We thought we were only recording audio for the episode, as we have had some difficulty when trying to record video with more than two people. God apparently had other plans for this episode. You may need to turn the volume up just a bit when Archbishop is talking, but his voice is clear as a bell.

Terri is a dynamic personality and pursues the causes that she believes in with her whole heart. She is a second time visitor with us as she discusses her very revealing book about some explosive issues. I was even shocked, but it is truly an eye opener in this conversation with her.

You know those people who work behind the scenes in music, film and television to make things happen--the ones you never hear about? Well, Jim is one such person, and he has a history with the country music industry. Here's another hometown story from Nashville. Meet Jim Wakefield. Oh, you may notice that in a couple of spots, audio on this interview may get a little loud when Miss Rosalee is talking, so you may want to be prepared to lower your volume at that point for a moment.
