William Freedman and the Cross Country Local

The CTPodcast welcomes William Freedman — who is several weeks into a 10-week trek from Long Island to California's Pacific Coast using only local forms of community and public transportation — the Cross Country Local. Joining the podcast from a hotel in Cincinnati, Ohio, Bill discusses the 800 miles he's traveled thus far, including the gaps he's encountered and the support he's found along the way. Listeners can follow Bill's journey on Facebook at the group Cross County Local or via twitter using the hashtag XCLocal. He welcomes any financial assistance through his gofundme page.

The CTPodcast will be holding regular conversations with Bill as he traverses the country, so consider this the first in a series of podcasts on the Cross Country Local.
