Also, flooding on a development off Old Russellville Pike may be tied to a clogged city stormwater drain, firefighters file a lawsuit, and Chris and Ryan get salty about the name "OpenGate" security system, each for their own ridiculous reasons.

A teacher was recently disciplined for leaving notes and then venting on social media about some of her students. But is it OK to feel this way about students? Or should people who feel that way not be teachers?

Turns out, if the county creates a public forum, it has to allow the public to take part. Also, the Vanderbilt Clarksville Hospital rebranding is about more than rebranding (we hope), "lasagna ice" becomes "Zamboni ice," and Ryan has doubts about "The Muppet Show." 

Some people freaked out about a forecast of 17 inches of snow, when we got only 3 inches. It wasn't that the experts were wrong – people just weren't listening to the actual experts. Plus, how the Clarksville Jeep Crew almost helped a man escape from police, what happens when you don't clear your car of ice and snow, and blocked sidewalks send pedestrians onto Madison Street. 

Good news about the new hospitals comes with some hangnails, including that Premier won't build a planned new clinic, and we're going to take a $2 million hit in tax revenue. Or maybe Chris is just a party-pooper. Also, the Roxy moves to a temporary home, a new gas pipeline is coming, the commission's deputy joins the commission, and an amazing buzzer-beater creates true joy on video. 

A plan to consolidate homeless outreach services downtown blew up at the gate, but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea. Here's how the city, nonprofits and downtown stakeholders can sort things out. Plus, Sen. Marsha Blackburn creates a $500,000 nightmare for APSU over Charlie Kirk, the Highway 374 extension finally sees progress, and Ryan reveals he's never tried hummus. 

The U.S. Smelter news once again puts Clarksville in the national – even global – spotlight. Here are some ways the news might play out locally. Plus: Whose fault is it when middle school kids don't get adequate recess? Are murder charges justified in fentanyl deaths? How you can help fill Clarksville with trees, and why Ryan still has Christmas nightmares about the Johnsons' glowing snowman. 

With communities nearby struggling over job losses and dwindling population, Clarksville keeps landing new employers, and it was born of good decisions by city leaders in the 1970s and 80s. Speaking of growth, Britton Springs neighbors had a chance to decide how they grow, and that plan was torpedoed. What happens next? Plus, a new Charlie Kirk firing lawsuit, Whataburger closes two locations, and Chris and Ryan go WAY off script to talk ZZ Top, Steely Dan and Romeo Void. 

Montgomery County has picked Republican Congressmen by 20-30 percentage points for the last 20 years. But this time, Republican Matt Van Epps won our county by only 8 points. Are we going purple? Plus, a breakdown of the contenders to replace Rep. Jeff Burkhart in the statehouse, cracks in the Kraft Street Bridge, J.D. Vance just might be right about turkey, and Ryan wins a case for his dad's old Cub Scout rifle.
