Ordinary People. Extraordinary Things.
Welcome to 42 North! We're so glad you decided to stop in for a second! Join hosts Matt Lang and Joel Blackburn for this wild ride! Produced by Matt Bell who, on occasion, will make special appearances. From many interviews with ordinary people, we hope you will come alongside our hosts to learn about everyday people's passions and how they use those passions to impact those around them. Always keep your ears open too for when we drop special episodes that will be off the usual path because... you've gotta change things up occasionally.
