Description
Each episode, we’ll talk to the activists, organizers, visionaries and good-trouble makers coming together to make our state better for everyone—no exceptions.
Too often, Ohio makes the national news for all the wrong reasons. We’re out here talking with real Ohioans about what’s good, and how we can make things even better.
Whether you’re organizing for a People’s Budget, standing up to militarized police, or fighting for environmental equity, we want to hear about it.
In big cities, in farm country, in Appalachia, small towns and suburbs, Ohioans know how to support each other, and we know what keeps us safe.
So let’s talk about it. It’s time to tell the world about what’s good, here in Ohio.
