As previously reported by Human Events News, the Lantern left New Hampshire on October 24th and traveled from state to state since then, returning to New Hampshire on New Year's Eve.
Blazek shares her thoughts on the Unite the Light experience, including her inspiration for the idea, the challenges that were faced as the Lantern passed from patriot to patriot over two full months of travel, and some of the rewarding and inspiring moments encountered along the way.
The podcast concludes with an emotional tribute to Francis Scott Key, and perhaps a hint toward what the next "Lantern-style" project might be.
Hamachek himself was in possession of the Lantern over Christmas and shared his thoughts on the experience in a Human Events opinion piece published December 30.
