Episode 99 of the News Man Weekly is a shorter, stripped-down edition of the show — but Carl and Zac still manage to cover plenty of ground. Carl opens with a rant about the upcoming live 100th episode at Relax, It's Just Coffee, reluctantly preparing himself to leave the safety of the studio and interact with actual human beings.

Later in the episode, Carl breaks down Netflix’s haunting true-crime documentary The Crash before diving into several major local headlines, including Mansfield City Council approving annexation and zoning for the proposed Buc-ee's development, the sale of a home tied to one of the largest drug busts in METRICH history, and new parking improvements tied to the B&O Trail connector project. 

This episode is powered by the great folks at Relax, It's Just Coffee.  All listeners are invited to attend the live 100th episode recording June 1 at Relax in downtown Mansfield.
