A message from the host:
I’m half Greek, half Southern. I have a huge Greek family and an even bigger Southern Family. All of these people have shown me so much love and support I could never begin to thank them.
The most important person to me is my brother Charlie. Charlie was diagnosed with Autism when he was four. I encourage everyone to check out the Autism Speaks website. This is a great charity and one of the most important things we can do is spread Autism awareness. Thanks also to those of you who tune in every morning. The country community is so awesome. See y’all in the Morning
