We love it when a good thing leads to great things. Clay Archer had an idea to cover local high school sports but knew the landscape was a little crowded. His idea was to create a podcast/show that would cover sports but do it in a fun way. That's the genesis of the Ride the Wave Show. But it's more than a show - it's more like a movement. Clay and his co-hosts need to build a community around the show. Their approach is creative and meeting needs. Give the show a listen and hear how they'll ...

Dog lovers of the community, this episode is for you!

Had Ben Daughters been less motivated to operate Chillicothe's first Gastropub, The Pour House at Machinery Hall might not be a downtown staple.
