Episode 75 marks the Diamond Anniversary of the News Man Weekly podcast and Carl opens the show with a story that perfectly blends misery, comedy and classic Ohio stubbornness. The crew also dives into their usual weekend banter, NFL overreactions and another installment of “What’s Carl Watching?”, featuring his take on Eddie Murphy’s new Netflix documentary Being Eddie. The news rundown hits a few of the big local stories of the week — from backyard chickens and a new cannabis dispensary to high-stakes high school football semifinals. This week’s featured guests are Mike Woogerd, Mansfield’s new parks superintendent and Louis Andres, the city’s public works director. They join Carl, Zac and Hayden to talk about the future of Mansfield’s parks, Woogerd’s background in natural resource management and what residents can expect in 2026. Andres also gives an update on the possibility of a public pool in the city.  As always, grab a cup of Relax, It’s Just Coffee, and settle in for Mansfield’s favorite blend of news, grumpiness and community insight.
