LifeLong Learning is pleased to provide information about podcasts created by our presenters and of interest to our lifelong learners.
From October 2023 through July 2025, Marianne Reese – LifeLong Learning’s Founder and Director – hosted Human Interest on KZSM, San Marcos Community Radio. The one-hour conversations featured topics to spark compassion, empathy, motivation, laughter, fear, love, and perhaps even anger… all part of the human condition and each of human interest.

Lone Star Lore -- written by Jo Snider, LifeLong Learning's resident American historian -- reveals all the stories of Texas history you didn’t learn about in school. Meant to entertain and educate, the series uncovers the myths, truths, and untold stories of Texas through immersive narration, expert guests, and cinematic storytelling. Lone Star Lore blends historical research with multiple perspectives to explore how the stories we inherit still shape who we are today.
