It's Gonna Be OK

Ugh, right? Not the outcome we wanted, BUT lots of positive news locally! I'll take more Wade! 

First, another aging thing, I finally found it, grading myself for being able to avoid all the chaos yesterday, then why it may not be so bad. And one thing we have to absolutely ensure DOES NOT HAPPEN. 

She's Back!

It's been...too long since my best friend Alex Thomas has been able to record with us. She's back to invite you to a fundraiser for her place, Neighborhood Properties, at Maumee Bay Brewing, something we're calling Q Karaoke. 

Once she shared her role in creating the Wellness Center for NPI. We'll go back over that but also, what NPI does. 

Then some election stuff, which is still relevant even today!

Council's Dr. Brittany Jones

Like recent guest Mac Driscoll, Brittany too was appointed to an open seat on council. Unlike Mac, Brittany is unopposed on the ballot and voting that wraps up Tuesday. 

We're (unfortunately) by no means a hub of deep intellect in NWO, but Dr. Jones is about as close to a polymath as we likely have here. From a love of writing to a PhD of...well, not writing! I'll let her explain because her educational background is even over my wannabe-intellectual mind. 

Meet the New Coach

She's following, if not a legend, a missed pillar in our community. But she has the DNA to step right in for Coach Cullop at Savage and beyond. Along with new Lady Rockets Coach Ginny Boggess is freshman Evalyse Cole. Why not one of the more veteran staples of the team like Sammi  or Nan? Because of Evalyse's uncle!

It's Walleye Season

Walleye broadcaster Kendall Linnenkugel returns to get us ready for this year's season, that hopefully ends with a Kelly Cup. Why do they always fall to unfamiliar foes in the playoffs?

Kendall also talks up a new addition to the team that has equal star power and talent as MVP Brandon Hawkins. 

If you wanna skip ahead past some of the nuts of the bolts in the season preview, please do, but don't miss Kendall's perspective on the Caitlin Clark phenomenon and many more things women's sports.

Possible Silent Ones

Who ISN'T being counted in election polls? I theory.

First, I'm hoping our Trunk or Treat isnt TOO overwhelming and forbid, unruly. 

Yea, my fan is still on.

People need to think about this before they engage with strangers. 

 

Go Early Vote

The early voting center on Sylvania is less daunting than the crowds and cars would have you believe. I made one surprising choice with my ballot.

After all that the app isn't live!

Possible sewer water solutions in Maumee. 

I understand the cheering for Deshaun Watson's injury. He DID have to deal with 2 dozen very serious lawsuits.

Thanks Cucumber Guy.

They're Leaving...Again

The Browns are leaving Cleveland, again. But not going as far as Baltimore this time, and why them going is good for you.

First, thank you to Laura at CCS, and Steve Taylor is more than zany commercials and putting you in Kias. He's the real deal. And, two Lady Rockets got free cars. 

Get The App!

Cindy Geronimo and Doug Stevens from the City are here to share ALL the info about the new MyTOL water app that we can and should download Monday. You can track your water and billing to your micromanaging heart's desire!

Before that, another life gone too soon.

Give me the comet over the pretty lights.

Hey everybody, welcome to the Poultry Party. You're late.

I hope this 2012-2019 show pulls a Suits. It's so good!

 

Familiar Faces

Before we talk to returning guest Jess Burns from the 4H youth program - keeping your kids busy and engaged for $5 - I KNEW I recognized that face of one of the people seen after Guardians Lane Thomas hit a grand slam to send Cleveland to the League Championship Series. I just needed to read the story to have my A HA moment of recognition.
