Episode 73 opens with a grumpy old-man monologue as Carl unloads on two fronts — voter apathy and unplowed streets. With only 23% of Richland County voters showing up on Election Day and Mansfield’s first snow catching city crews asleep at the wheel, Carl doesn’t hold back. Then it’s on to the week’s headlines, from Mansfield City Council’s crackdown on rogue truckers to Madison voters rejecting an income tax levy and the latest developments in the Keesee court case. And yes, the guys still manage to squeeze in their usual NFL overreactions and a new segment, “What’s Carl Watching?”

Later, the crew welcomes back friend of the show BJ Price from Skate Ohio to talk about the nonprofit’s exciting plans for a new “micro skatepark” at Maple Lake Park — a project made possible by comedian Dan Cummins and Bad Magic Productions. Price also shares updates on Lexington’s potential skatepark revival, the group’s partnership with international artist André Miripolsky and what’s rolling ahead for 2026. It’s part civic pep talk, part snow-day vent, and part local skate culture spotlight — best enjoyed with a hot cup of Relax coffee and a thick skin.
