News of the Week

ARPA with Dillon and Mariah

College football playoff w/ Larry and Hayden

In this week’s edition, Richland Source City Editor Carl Hunnell is joined by several members of the Source media family to talk about Ohio State and the College Football Playoff, as well as a local reporting project on how Ashland County has utilized American Rescue Plan Act funds.

Managing Editor Larry Phillips, our best Buckeye historian, and Shelby/north county reporter Hayden Gray are in the studio to talk about OSU’s chances against Tennessee on Dec. 21 – and the odds head coach Ryan Day loses his job if he fails to win a national title.

Ashland Source reporters Dillon Carr and Mariah Thomas join Hunnell to talk about their months-long project on ARPA usages by cities, villages, townships and schools. They also provide details on a public event coming up Wednesday night in the Ashland Theater to wrap up the entire project.

Hunnell is also joined by Executive Producer Zac Hiser and videographer Grant Ritchey to talk about the news of the week, including a police-involved shooting in Shelby, the ongoing legal fight over the demolition of the Mansfield YMCA, a decision by Mansfield City Councilwoman Laura Burns not to seek re-election and the announcement Mansfield native Matthew Failor will be racing in the 2025 Iditarod Sled Dog Race in Alaska.
