About The podcast
It takes a little time to appreciate the real reason Lewes has been called one of the best little towns in America.
It’s not just its natural beauty, a history dating back to the 1600’s, or the location and charm. The secret is the people who live here who, without any coordination or plan, have shaped a collective soul that is as appealing as it is unique. We in Lewes, the Podcast, is celebration of these remarkable, creative and energetic people. They’re river pilots and restaurateurs, business owners, teachers, and authors, painters, musicians, and coaches, and water men and volunteers galore, and that was just our first season.
If you are one of the thousands who live in Lewes, or the hundreds of thousands who visit each year, or you’re simply curious how one small town, despite all of the usual divisions, negativity, and angst you can find anywhere in this country, is able to rise above itself and provide an isle of hope and calm… our program is for you.
And we promise… no politicians.
Each episode - well, most of the time - is recorded at Kindle Restaurant in downtown Lewes.
Our first episode aired on Tuesday, June 6, 2023. All episodes are always available and always free.
