b"Welcome back to Beyond The Fog Radio! Recording for Season 3 is still underway, but in the meantime, our team is looking back at some of our favorite episodes from our first two seasons. This week, we're rediscovering Touch of Class Choir (Season 2 Episode 11) and the man behind its magic \\u2014 Mr. Gregory Cole!\\n\\nMr. Cole has taught music and made a difference for Bay Area children for over 40 years, to the point where we can\\u2019t list all of his accomplishments here in the episode description! His greatest endeavor, however, began in 1984 at Sala & Phillip Burton Academic High School, where he founded Touch of Class Choir (TOCC). In the midst of three underserved neighborhoods in San Francisco, Mr. Cole teaches his students a wide range of music from religious to jazz and R&B, and along with tremendous talent, this versatility has led TOCC on tours across the entire world.\\n\\nAlong with music, Mr. Cole teaches his students about important life skills and the power of personal achievement, motivating them in so many different ways. Former TOCC students look to him as a father figure, and we couldn\\u2019t think of a kinder person to have such a beloved status. Join Susan, Michaela, and Jae in revisiting their interview with Mr. Gregory Cole!\\n\\n(For more information about Mr. Gregory Cole, please visit: http://touchofclasschoir.org/gregory-cole-director/ .)"
