    Alek and Doug are joined by Watershed Voice staff writer Frank Stanko for his long overdue Keep Your Voice Down debut. The trio discuss Samwise Gamgee and the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, Frank's journey from Michigan to North Dakota and back again, the challenges, rewards, and current state of journalism, and Frank's passion for theatre.

    Alek also promised a link to that TikTok personality who perfectly melds NPR stylings with the likes of Lil' Jon, so here it is.

    The show’s theme is “Howling at the Moon” by D Fine Us, and this week’s outro music is “Mama Knows” by Gaela Braun. You can support Keep Your Voice Down and Watershed Voice with a donation here.
