On this episode of the Southern Illinois Insider, Jake Linder sits down with Jamie Storey (Executive Director of the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce) to discuss the upcoming Home & Outdoor Expo in Mt. Vernon, Annual Awards Banquet, and a mixture of other Chamber events coming up.

Jake give you an update on his Big Jake's Journey of Health partnership with in-studio guest Destiny from Medical Weight Loss Solutions in Marion. Also, a big rodeo/concert announcement in Du Quoin was made by our friends with Wolfe Cattle Company and Cord McCoy's PRCA Pro Rodeo. And finally, the Summersville Grade School Girls Basketball Coaches join us to talk about their recent finish at State.

Cris Hayes and Brittany Koenegstein join Jake Linder and the Southern Illinois Insider to discuss home hospice care as well as the stigma surrounding it. Cris and Brittany walk us through many viable reasons for choosing hospice outside of just end-of-life circumstances. It's an eye-opening conversation and if you don't know all the things hospice can do for people, this would be a great listen for you.
