MANSFIELD — What can fire up an old curmudgeon newsman’s heart more than the U.S. soccer team in the World Cup?
As it turns out, not much.
Deputy Managing Editor Carl Hunnell opens the show by actively cheering on the USMNT, which has already clinched its group title and has one more game left before beginning the knockout phase of the global tournament on its home soil.
After that, the whole team of Hunnell, Zac Hiser and Hayden Gray break down local news headlines, including Mansfield’s proposed downtown DORA district; the return of weekend speed bumps along the Miracle Mile; and the latest progress on the city’s massive Main Street reconstruction project.
In the featured interview, Hunnell is joined by Mansfield music legends Dean Kastran and Dale Powers, founding members of The Ohio Express, along with Shelby musician McCray Martin.
The conversation explores their recent collaboration on Martin’s new song, Set Me Free, their advice for aspiring musicians, influences and stories from six decades in the music business. The song also includes the work of Tim Corwin, another founding member of the Ohio Express.
Kastran and Powers discuss opening for The Who, handling fame and success and the time they managed to make television icon Dick Clark unhappy.
If you love music, local history and great storytelling, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
This conversation is powered by the great folks at Relax, It’s Just Coffee.
