MANSFIELD — Episode 69 of News Man Weekly might just be the most “taxing” one yet.
Your team of Carl Hunnell, Zac Hiser and Hayden Gray open with their usual mix of NFL overreactions and weekend chatter before diving deep into a big local debate — the future of the downtown Municipal Parking lot.
Hiser, a Cleveland Browns fan, also pays off a bet to Gray, who somehow roots for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hiser dons and wears a Steelers jersey during the show after Pittsburgh knocked off Cleveland on Sunday.
Zac Hiser paid off his football bet with Hayden Gray this week, wearing a Pittsburgh Steelers jersey throughout the News Man Weekly podcast.
Hunnell then unpacks the city’s proposal to sell half the lot to Park National Bank, explains how we got here and explores the pros, cons and public reactions surrounding one of the most talked-about development issues in Mansfield.
We know it’s a lot. Hunnell talks too much. His teachers in school told him that all the time — and they were right.
Then the show welcomes two guests: Source Media Audience Engagement Editor Brittany Schock joins to share updates on upcoming events across Richland, Ashland and Knox counties.
Commissioner Tony Vero stops by to discuss the complex property tax relief decision facing Richland County.
It’s an episode full of insight, accountability and community context, best paired with a cup of Relax coffee and a strong opinion on taxes.
