MANSFIELD — Fewer things make our host grumpier than people who don’t vote.

Unless it’s continued wet, cold weather.

Richland Source Deputy Managing Editor Carl Hunnell opens this week’s show by ranting on a spring season that has turned his yard into an overgrown jungle. He quickly segues into critical comments about those who choose not to participate in the local democracy.

It’s episode No. 96 of the weekly journey and we break down the key stories shaping the community.

These include what voters need to know ahead of the May 5 primary election; a downtown vandalism arrest that drew a strong response from police leadership; and the long-awaited roundabout project at Lexington-Springmill and Home roads finally moving toward construction.  

We’re then joined by broadcaster Chris Kelly from iHeartMedia. Kelly shares insight into upcoming career changes, how radio in Mansfield has evolved over the years, how he got started in radio and what advice he has for younger folks in the industry today.
