KU Podcast: Konrad Wert

This podcast by Aaron Yates sets the record straight on this week's stories about radio personality and County Commissioner Harley Belew. This story is not about KU or Aaron Yates -- it's about Harley's own words. Harley has attempted to distract from the story by attacking the messenger. With this podcast, we set the record straight and put focus back on the representative's words.

Kerrville United will interview some of the candidates for this seat in the near future, so this episode aims to bring you up to speed on the duties of the SBOE reps and why their work is important.
