John, here's the edited episode. I think it's working well. I'll need some instruction on making sure all the levels are right across the episode, though. I'm sure you'll be able to help me make this sound right. Sounds pretty good right now, but could probably use some tweaks.

“The Lebanese in Mississippi: An Oral History documents and interprets the lives of first- and subsequent-generation Lebanese Mississippians whose families immigrated to the state looking for a better life. It is an oral record—sometimes a second-hand “remembering”—of their forbears’ experiences of settling in a foreign land where they knew few people, did not speak the language, and had to create their own occupations. It is the collective story of struggles and successes, of maintaining an ethnic identity and assimilating into a new culture, and of creating a new culture that mirrors that experience. “
