Gov. Mark Gordon has launched a new podcast, called ‘The Morning Gather.’

According to a press release from the Office of Governor Mark Gordon, he plans to “gather with Wyoming leaders, experts and everyday citizens to discuss the issues and topics that matter most to our communities. Every episode will explore the challenges and opportunities facing our state, from education to energy, healthcare to the economy.”
