Gavin and Cyrus recap CCNN's big year of awards, broadcasts, and standout shows while looking ahead to what’s next.

Setting Sail into the Future! ⚓ In this episode of The Navigator, hosts Gavin Lynch and Cyrus Alba celebrate a wildly successful year for the network. Fresh off major wins like the STN Crazy 8 and FSP individual awards, the team looks back at the accomplishments that defined their season and catches a glimpse of what lies ahead. We sit down for two exclusive, perspective-shifting interviews:

• The Alumnus: Former CCNN standout Sebastian Broche joins us to discuss his powerful, award-winning documentary Live Like Bella, how his high school broadcasting roots gave him a massive head start studying journalism at the University of Florida, and the vital importance of "being human" when telling real stories.
• The Freshman: Incoming freshman Frankie Avila from Somerset Prep shares his excitement about joining the crew, his dreams of building a legacy, and his goals to transition from behind the camera to mastering the editing bay.

From seasoned pros to the next generation of storytellers, this episode bridges the gap between the legacies left behind and the new beginnings just getting started.

Hosts JP and Gavin explore how music influences identity, mood, and creativity through interviews with a local band teacher and a bass player.

The episode covers music genres, learning instruments, personal transformations, and why music matters in everyday life.

On this episode of The Navigator, hosts Gavin and JP discuss close calls with sending messages to the wrong people and talk with guests who share cringe-worthy texting stories and interview mishaps.

Light, relatable, and funny, the episode shows how one accidental message can cause panic, surprises, and unexpected laughs.
