Elmer and Graylin talk to Glynn Ayers about Blue Dot’s recent decision to turn off the comments. This is a great discussion about the role social media, Facebook in particular, plays in our small community.

Be sure to stick around to hear Elmer’s rebuttal to Alex and Graylin’s recent seltzer ranking!

Amanda Ramos joins Graylin to talk about the reality of the recently approved abortion ban in Indiana. This is not an easy thing to talk about, but it must be done. Regardless of where you fall on this issue, SB1 affects everyone in our state. Amanda and Graylin discuss how it got passed, who is responsible for some of its most extreme aspects, and what we do next.

Jim Hays is back with another history lesson and this time we’re talking about the history of flooding in downtown Corydon. Also, Alex Porter is back as co-host to discuss local news including the recent dress code discussion at North Harrison schools. Also, we highly recommend sticking around (it’s a long one) for our recommendations at the end…we may or may not get into a definitive ranking of seltzer brands...

Elmer is back with Graylin in this episode to talk about all things Blue Dot. How it has evolved, how it has affected our lives, and what we want for the future.

We want to hear from you. Please get in touch with us on topics you want covered. This project is about giving the community information they want and need. Email us at [email protected] or call 502-653-9157.

Graylin is joined by her mother Leah Porter and friend of the pod Anna Scott to chat about local news of the past couple weeks. We touch on some updates to the county’s playground situation, hear a little bit about Anna’s journey to living in Corydon, and how traffic has affected her family’s life in downtown Corydon.

Graylin is joined by Alex Porter to host this in-depth look at the traffic situation in downtown Corydon, particularly on North Capitol Ave. Local resident Shane Snelling comes from a place of love and has some tangible solutions that would benefit the community.

We also touch on local news and provide some fun recommendations as always.

Sarah Blessing joins Graylin as co-host to discuss the likely reversal of Roe V. Wade by the US Supreme Court. Sarah shares her personal story, which we believe is the only way to truly understand one another’s differences and conflicting viewpoints.

This topic is never easy to talk about, but so very important to address right now.

Sarah and Graylin jump on quickly to fill you in on a recent request from the Harrison County Parks Department.

Monday, June 6th, the commissioners moved to send a request of $95,000 onto the council. Parks superintendent Larry Shickles requested the $95,000 out of riverboat to fund the construction of six pickleball courts at Buffalo Trace Park.

Guests Adam Schneider and Sayre Reece join us for this long overdue look at the local LGBTQ+ experience. We kickoff Pride month with this in-depth, personal, and informative exploration of this topic.

Of course we touch on local events and happenings and provide some fun recommendations as well.

Our dear friend and county council candidate Sarah Blessing joins us to talk all things polls! Both Sarah and Graylin worked the polls for the first time and had a wonderful experience. They talk about how it changed their outlook on things and what needs to happen going forward.
