Hey everyone, cool project you have here! I'm listening to the episode right now. I actually wasn't aware of your project until Jordan reached out to me recently. He left a message on my website saying he liked my work (I'm guessing he meant lovelettertocolumbus.com) and wanted to know if I'd be interested in an interview. That sounds like it might be fun for sure. I don't think there's any way to DM people on Substack, so I figured I'd leave a message here. If you're still interested let me know!

Thanks and keep up the great work! I'll share this where I can!

Jason,

You should definitely sit for an interview with Team Beacon. I did in September and it was a great time! They discuss the issues in great depth and with impressive incite, while making the interview a blast! Such fun guys to hang with!

Sincerely,

Greg

It was part of their “Election Special” series, where they tried interview all candidates running for Hilliard elected positions, in the last election cycle. I’m not sure what the podcast # was, but my interview aired on October 16th.

They did a great job of impartially interviewing the candidates from both parties for city council and school board.

There were six running for three city council seats and four running for two school board seats; and I think they got all but two or three of those 10 candidates to sit for an hour-long interview. All of them were very well done. As I said before, these guys are great at what they do; and it’s obvious that they genuinely care about getting the impartial and objective truth out there for all to see and hear.

Please let me know when you’re interviewed, as I’d love to hear it!
