Welcome to Ungoverned!

Dear listener,

Thanks for stopping by.

If you need one, I'll begrudgingly offer an apology for the pause between Season 1 and 2.

I recorded Season 1 shortly following retirement as a Huntington Town Councilwoman in 2023.

In that first season I call myself a "recovering politician" and immerse myself in therapeutic oversharing and storytelling.

Now I'm ready to crack on with Season 2...

...white-knuckling it as a freshly-recovered politician, but fully in touch with the idea that at any moment, I could fall off the wagon.

People ask me if I miss my work as a former town councilwoman.

I don't miss the politics, but I do miss the people and the many opportunities I enjoyed to make things better.

I launched Ungoverned to continue my work engaging with people and with the world around me.

Behind this microphone I can still use my voice, and even invite other voices, to move people and ideas.

Hopefully, giving you some snack-food for thought.

You can also listen to and follow Ungoverned with Joan Cergol on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music and You Tube.

If you've happened to drop in before I've actually started to drop my Season 2 episodes, know that they're in production.

Give Season 1 a listen (or re-listen) and make sure to sign up above so I can let you know when new stuff drops.

With Peace and Love,
