For one year, Bear With Us has been sharing the people, projects, and ideas making a difference across north central Montana. In this special anniversary episode, we take a look back at where the podcast began, some of our favorite conversations and memorable moments, and the stories behind the projects we’ve had the opportunity to highlight.
We talk about why storytelling matters in economic development, the incredible people who are helping their communities thrive, the power of partnerships, and the importance of shining a light on the success stories happening across rural Montana. We also celebrate a pretty exciting milestone: Bear With Us is officially an award-winning podcast!
As we look ahead to year two, we’re talking about what’s next for the podcast, the guests and stories we hope to bring you, and why sharing the voices of the Hi-line continues to matter.
