MANSFIELD — The 21st episode of the News Man Weekly podcast has dropped.

In this week’s edition, Richland Source City Editor Carl Hunnell is joined by Aurelio Diaz, who represents the 5th Ward on Mansfield City Council, one of his many active community roles.

Hunnell and Diaz talk about his background, why he decided to get involved in local politics and his choice to become an independent candidate.

Hunnell is also joined by Executive Producer Zac Hiser and videographer Grant Ritchey to riff about the news of the week, including the local high school football playoff scene; plans for new downtown apartment development on the city’s north side; the legal battle over the demolition of the former YMCA in Mansfield; and Wayfinders’ plan to move its homeless shelter to a larger location on Park Avenue East.
