IAMLAKEWORTH - Hoyt Family Interview recorded 9/19/2018

This Week's episode of the IAMLAKEWORTH podcast is an interview with my friends, the Hoyt family Renee, Mike and Miles.  Join me for an interesting conversation about the Lake Worth music scene and how the city of Lake Worth has welcomed a family that moved here two years ago.  Around the 22 minute mark the initial interview ended but keep listening as Renee came back to continue the conversation.  We both learned that interviewing an 8 year old can make you forget some of the questions and answers you wanted to talk about.  As a special treat our intro and ending music are a bit of Miles jammin on his guitar!

Lake Worth is special because.... These interviews are an expanded version of that question giving listeners a chance to get to know the subject and by extension the city of Lake Worth.
