Roundabouts have become a regular part of life in Hernando. Some folks like them. Some folks are still figuring them out. But one thing is certain, they have become a symbol of the growth and change happening in our city.

That is exactly why we are launching a new local podcast called Roundabout Roundup.

Roundabout Roundup will feature Ward 4 Alderman Chad Wicker and lifelong Hernando resident and local realtor Brian Couch. The idea is simple. Brian will gather questions directly from citizens about what is happening in Hernando city government, and we will sit down and talk through the issues. No spin. No talking points. Just straightforward conversation about the decisions being made and how they affect our community.

In a time when it often feels like people are talking at each other instead of talking with each other, this podcast is meant to create a place for open dialogue, transparency, and facts.

Episodes will typically air the Thursday or Friday after each Board of Aldermen meeting. Some episodes may be short. Others may run longer depending on what is going on in the city.

If you have a question you would like Brian to ask, send it to:

chad@chadwickerms.com

We look forward to hearing from you and hope Roundabout Roundup becomes a helpful way for our community to stay informed about what is happening in Hernando.
