A far as the concept of great people, success, and hard work, Sky and Utah would like to honor someone who recently passed in January of 2021 during this podcast.

Jim Watson was a fine example of greatness throughout his time spent here on this earth with us. He inspired many that he touched with is words and wisdom.

Sky and Utah wanted to share a few quotations, readings and a song, that they thought Jim would especially enjoy and give us that great smile, just one more time.

2021 opens with Sky & Utah at the Port Gardner Sound Studios with their crew recording for a podcast entitled Integrity. During the "Covid 19" shutdown, Sky had been spending a lot of time going through quotations. So when they werre talking in December 2021, about doing a podcast, what better topic to pick but Integrity?

The decision is always difficult to pick he right quotations, and as you will hear Utah usually get the final say, but others, Bill and Henry, also have their input.

This podcast is being dedicated to Ed Bremmer of KSER 90.7 FM, who left us in December of 2020. Utah spent 5 years working with Ed at the station. If there was anyone who was a fine example of Integrity, it was ED! Always wanting to know both sides of the story, and if he didn't have it, kept digging. He loved what he did!

All right everyone. Sit back and relax and enjoy the podcast!
