In episode 80 of The News Man Weekly, Hunnell and the gang dig into a packed local and regional news cycle. He breaks down the long-awaited sale of the former West Park Shopping Center, now back in local hands after years of neglect. He also provides an update on a major development in the double homicide of former Ashland dentist Spencer Tepe and his wife in Columbus, followed by updates on redevelopment plans for the former YMCA site on Park Avenue West.

Our guest this week is Source Media's digital marketing director, Adam Doc Fox, who is also an avid mountaineer and outdoorsman. Fox recounts his recent solo trip to New York to hike the notoriously brutal Devil’s Path. As a highpointer who has reached the highest peak in all lower 48 states, Fox also reflects on some of his most difficult adventures, the mindset required for solo hikes, his advice for beginners and why climbing Mount Everest isn’t necessarily the pinnacle people imagine it to be.

What does it really mean to build a village, and to be a good villager, in a world where so many of us feel tired, lonely, and stretched thin?

In this episode, we welcome back licensed clinical counselor Kelly Martincin for a thoughtful conversation about connection, boundaries, and the quiet work of showing up for one another. Together, we unpack the idea that while many of us long for community, being part of a village requires intention, vulnerability, and a willingness to be a little inconvenienced.

From chronic loneliness and unmet expectations to self-care, community care, and redefining what support can look like, Kelly offers grounded insight into how relationships actually grow. This conversation may resonate especially with listeners who feel socially drained, overwhelmed, or overstimulated, whether due to personality, season of life, or mental health challenges. Ultimately, Kelly reminds us that villages aren’t built through grand gestures, but through presence, grace, and small moments of courage, even when it feels hard.

Episode 79 kicks off the new year the only way News Man Weekly knows how: cold, cranky, and painfully honest. From there, the crew riffs on the NFL playoff picture and Carl ranks his top five stand-up comedians of all time. Carl then recaps news of the week including two crime cases out of Ashland and area fire departments who received grants to improve emergency communications across the county. 

The episode’s featured interview brings Mansfield City Council members Cheryl Meier and David Falquette into the studio for a wide-ranging conversation to start 2026. The two veteran lawmakers discuss the role of City Council, the biggest challenges facing Mansfield, how decisions are made behind the scenes and what residents should expect from local government in the year ahead.
