MANSFIELD — The 36th episode of the News Man Weekly podcast has dropped.
In this week’s show, Richland Source Deputy Managing Editor Carl Hunnell sits down with Chris Niswander, president of the Mansfield Home Brew Club, an organization marking its 30th anniversary in 2025.
Hunnell and Niswander chat about the club and its drive for new members. They also discuss Niswander’s work in the past as a law enforcement officer with the Richland County Sheriff’s Office and as the fire chief in Madison and Monroe townships.
Hunnell is also joined by Executive Producer Zac Hiser and videographer Grant Ritchey to talk about the news of the day, including the continuing story involving Faith Life Church and its co-pastors, Gary and Drenda Keesee; a special bonus episode of the News Man Weekly that dropped Friday with Mansfield native and Iditarod sled dog racer Matthew Failor; a Mansfield City Schools board of education meeting Monday night to vote on financial budget cuts; and excitement building about local high school winter sports tournaments.
