This week on News Man Weekly, Carl, Zac and Hayden mark the unofficial beginning of Ohio's march toward fall with another edition of Carl's Top 5. The crew also discusses several major local headlines, including Buc-ee's officially purchasing land in Mansfield, a $20 million fiber optic expansion along U.S. Route 30 and the opening of the new Bad Magic Skatepark at Maple Lake Park.

Later, we sit down with Mansfield actor, filmmaker and videographer Beau Roberts. From his starring role as Nathan Detroit in Guys and Dolls at the Renaissance Theatre to his work in independent films and behind the camera at DRM Productions, Beau shares stories from decades in the performing arts. We talk about the differences between stage and screen, memorable moments from live theater, the realities of pursuing an acting career and why Mansfield's arts community continues to punch above its weight.
