Every community needs a “keeper of the flame” – someone who can connect the present with the past.

And in Middle Tennessee, we’re fortunate to have several of these sages who can remind us of our history. At WPLN, that’s the gift Nina Cardona shares with listeners each day on the NashVillager podcast – connecting the past with the present, while helping us break out of the news cycle and think about the news in a historical context.

Today, we hear Nina's story and the why and how of what she does to connect us to Tennessee and beyond.
