| 2/16/26 | Experience, Accessibility, and a Return to the Table | Why would someone step away from power… only to ask for it back?After serving eight years as County Commissioner, Chad Stewart resigned. Now he’s running again. Was it strategy? Service? Or unfinished business?In this episode, we unpack fund balances, tax debates, growth fears, and the pressure of public life in the internet age.When experience meets controversy… who do you trust to lead? | 26m 24s | ||||||
| 2/9/26 | A Calling, Not a Job with Sheriff Steve Bizzell | What does the sheriff actually do when the cameras are off?Behind the patrol cars and flashing lights is a role most people never see, managing a $32M operation, supporting deputies through trauma, making decisions the public may never agree with, and carrying the weight of every call that comes in. After nearly three decades in the job, Sheriff Steve Bizzell explains why he still believes this role isn’t a position. It’s a calling. | 35m 56s | ||||||
| 2/2/26 | A Conversation About Service, Perspective, and the Future of Johnston County | Why would someone run for sheriff after being hired by the same department three times?This episode isn’t about attacks or politics. It’s about perspective. I talk with Randall Ackley about what he’s seen on patrol, inside investigations, and from years of working in a rapidly growing county. When staffing can’t keep up, presence disappears. What does that mean for safety, trust, and the future of Johnston County? | 28m 18s | ||||||

| 1/19/26 | Engineer. Neighbor. Vice Chair. Why Butch Lawter Wants Four More Years | What really decides a local election before Election Day? I sit down with Vice Chair Butch Lawter to ask the questions that shape your wallet and your weekend. Can a county actually build parks without piling on taxes? What fixes a strained school budget when enrollment barely moves? How do you plan water for peak days, not averages? And why does fund balance matter more than slogans? If you live in Johnston County, these answers touch your street, your bill, your vote. | 36m 24s | ||||||
| 1/12/26 | “Getting It Done”: Commissioner on Budgets and Growth | Why would a small town business owner take a pay cut to serve, hire extra staff to cover him, then ask voters for four more years? In this episode, Commissioner Mike Rose unpacks the revaluation year in plain numbers, the billion in building needs, and why the county set the rate it did. Are incentives giveaways, or a smarter way to win jobs? What happens when the state stalls and the courts still need staff? If you care about taxes, growth, and the future of Johnston County, lean in. | 33m 55s | ||||||
| 1/5/26 | A Harbor Close to Home Healing Safety and Community in Johnston County | What if domestic violence isn’t what you think it is? What if the most damaging scars are the ones you can’t see? In this episode, I sit down with Harbor’s Executive Director, Kay Johnson, to unpack the power and control behind abuse, why it often takes about seven attempts to leave, and how a simple plan can change everything. How do you know if it’s abuse when there’s no bruise? What does real help look like at 2 a.m.? And how can a community thrift shop fuel safety and healing? Listen in and decide what your next step could be. | 34m 09s | ||||||
