This week on Vero’s Voice Podcast, I’m kicking off our "Brewvember" series with Ray Hooker, the mastermind behind Indian River Distillery right here in Vero Beach!

If you love local flavor, craft spirits, and a peek behind the scenes of a true Treasure Coast gem, you won’t want to miss this episode!

In this episode, Doolin chats with Elliese Shaughnessy, founder of the social group Young Adults of Vero Beach, about what it’s like trying to make friends, network, and maybe even date in a town known for its retirement scene.

They talk trivia nights, awkward icebreakers, growing a community from scratch, and how Vero’s younger crowd is quietly making its mark. A fun, upbeat conversation about finding your people and keeping Vero Beach young at heart. 

Doolin sits down with local film maker, Rod Costner, creator of the indie comedy, Bob from Vero Beach, the story of a wise-cracking fish-man with plenty of local flavor. They dive into how the film was made, what inspired the off-beat story, and how our town itself became a character in this movie. A fun behind the scenes look at local creativity on the Treasure Coast.

The Vero Beach Theatre Guild is bringing Mel Brooks' monstrously funny musical Young Frankenstein to life and Doolin sat down with two of its stars, Sara Gordon and Josh Kent, for a hilarious conversation on today's Vero's Voice Podcast. 

Sara and Josh give us a peek behind the curtain, sharing stories from rehearsals, the challenge of balancing musical theatre with physical comedy, and struggling to keep a straight face onstage. Whether you're fan of the 1974 film, or new to community theatre, Young Frankenstein at the Theatre Guild is pure, electrifying fun.

Doolin gets spooky with paranormal expert Larry Lawson of Indian River Hauntings, LLC and author of Haunted Indian River County as they uncover the ghostly legends and mysterious history of Florida’s Treasure Coast. From haunted landmarks to eerie encounters, they explore the stories that make Indian River County one of the most fascinatingly haunted spots in the Sunshine State. Tune in for history, hauntings, and a few chills along the way! 

The very first episode of The Vero's Voice Podcast is here! And we're diving straight into the spirit of spooky season! Hosted by Doolin Dalton, this new podcast is all about real stories from the people who make our community vibrant, creative, and uniquely Vero Beach.

To kick things off with a bang (or maybe a scream), I sat down with the one and only Robin Volsky, a master of monster makeup and the twisted genius behind the upcoming Robin Volsky’s Creature Feature Monster Makeup Show at the Vero Beach Theatre Guild. From blood-curdling beasts to ghoulish glam, Robin shares what you can expect at his live event... and trust us, it’s way more than just face paint.

It’s spooky season in Vero, and there’s no better way to celebrate than by hearing from the man who brings monsters to life.

Listen now, and get ready to transform… if you dare.
