The GV Wire Podcast
GV Wire is an online news publication based in Fresno, California. We launched in 2016 in order to illuminate programs, policies and people who promote the economic prosperity, health and well-being of residents of the Central Valley. While the focus of GV Wire is investigative reporting on local and state government issues, we also like to include local lifestyle and sports coverage. www.gvwire.com
