This week on News Man Weekly, Carl, Zac and Hayden break down several local 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, Carl sits down with 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. Dean and Dale 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.
