Every statewide executive office in Ohio is on the ballot in 2026, and not a single incumbent is defending a seat. Term limits cleared the building all at once. In this solo episode of Purple Political Breakdown Ohio Edition, Radell Lewis walks through the entire Ohio ballot, from the top of the ticket down to the competitive congressional districts, so you know exactly what you are voting on. Governor: Dr. Amy Acton vs. Vivek Ramaswamy. U.S. Senate: Sherrod Brown vs. Jon Husted. Plus Attorney General, Secretary of State, Auditor, Treasurer, two Ohio Supreme Court seats, and the U.S. House districts most likely to decide which party controls the chamber. Then we get into a week of Statehouse news that shows exactly what kind of fight this is going to be. Attorney General Dave Yost's surprise resignation to join the Alliance Defending Freedom, Gov. Mike DeWine's appointment of Andy Wilson as interim attorney general, and the open question of what happens to the FirstEnergy bribery prosecution. The Ohio GOP power struggle, as gubernatorial nominee Vivek Ramaswamy sets the agenda on a voter ID constitutional amendment and a Medicaid fraud plan while the sitting governor reacts. HB 698, which would tie public college funding to compliance with Senate Bill 1. A federal plan to open thousands of acres of the Wayne National Forest in southeast Ohio to fracking. And Ohio's data center sales tax break ballooning to roughly $1.6 billion, far beyond the state's own forecast, while the savings flow to Amazon, Meta, and Google. County of the Week is Cuyahoga, home to Cleveland and to a property tax foreclosure case now before the Ohio Supreme Court that could matter to homeowners across the state. Awareness is the first step. Look up your district, know your races, and vote. Political solutions without political bias.

Ohio's 7th Congressional District is back on every Democratic flip list in the country, and on this episode of Purple Political Breakdown Ohio Edition, Radell Lewis sits down with two-time OH-7 Democratic congressional candidate Matt Diemer to break down why. Matt has run this district twice, in 2022 and 2024, and he knows exactly what it takes (and what it costs) to fight for a seat the national party has long written off. We dig into the new Democratic nominee Brian Poindexter, the messy reality of incumbent Max Miller's divorce and the domestic violence allegations now hanging over his reelection, the union method that worked for organized labor before the Democratic Party walked away from it, and why R+11 might really be purple plus eleven in 2026. We also break down the 2026 Ohio primary night that just shocked half the state: Allison Russo's commanding 68-32 win over Bryan Hambley in the Secretary of State Democratic primary, the Attorney General Democratic primary surprise, Vivek Ramaswamy versus Dr. Amy Acton in the governor race, Sherrod Brown's comeback campaign against Jon Husted in a Senate seat now tangled in the FirstEnergy bribery trial fallout, and what Maine's Graham Platner versus Janet Mills standoff tells us about how the national Democratic Party is picking its 2026 candidates. Plus the real conversation: vibes versus policy, why primaries make better candidates and better voters, and what an authentic working-class Ohio Democrat actually sounds like. If you live in OH-7 (Ashland, Medina, Wooster, exurban Cleveland, plus parts of Cuyahoga and Wayne), this is the breakdown of your race. If you don't, it's the case study for every flippable R+10-to-R+15 district in the country. Political solutions without political bias.

Decoding the 2026 Foreclosure Market: Ratios, Reality, and Real Estate OpportunityWelcome to a high-octane episode of The Note Closers Show! As we kick off the second quarter of 2026, the housing market is undergoing a "gradual normalization," but the numbers tell a story that many headlines are missing. Your host, Scott Carson, dives deep into the February 2026 data to separate the "false flags" from the genuine investment goldmines. If you've been watching foreclosure filings creep up and wondering where the inventory is actually hiding, this episode is your roadmap to the states with the most distressed debt and the strategies to profit from it.We aren't just looking at the top 15 states by ratio; we are looking at the heavy hitters—the states where the sheer volume of filings creates a playground for note investors. From the sunshine of Florida to the lone star of Texas, we break down why the "Gamecock State" and the "Hoosier State" are popping up on our radar and how you can leverage this data to build a recession-resistant portfolio. Stop waiting for the market to come to you and start taking action on the distressed assets that are hitting the books right now.Key Topics Covered in This Episode:The "Ratio" Trap vs. Real Volume: We expose why looking at foreclosure ratios (1 in every X households) can be a false flag, ranking small states like Delaware high despite having only 190 filings, while ignoring the massive opportunities in states like California and New York.National Trends and Normalization: A deep dive into the 38,840 properties with foreclosure filings in February 2026—a 20% jump from the previous year—marking 12 consecutive months of year-over-year increases as the market returns to pre-pandemic norms.State-by-State Breakdown: Detailed analysis of the top 15 states, including Indiana (ranked #1 by ratio), Florida (the volume leader with 4,504 filings), and the specific "hit-hard" counties like Cuyahoga in Ohio and Wayne in Michigan.Investment Exit Strategies: Moving beyond the auction block, we discuss 11 different exit strategies, including buying notes at a discount, loan modifications, trial payment plans, and deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to keep borrowers in their homes while securing cash flow.The Note Business Advantage: Why buying the debt is superior to traditional real estate investing, especially when borrowers file for bankruptcy, and how to avoid the "last-minute realtor" trap of trying to buy a note the week of an auction.The data is clear: foreclosure activity is rising, but success depends on your ability to look past the ratios and find the volume. Whether you're interested in the fast-foreclosure states like Michigan or the long-game opportunities in South Carolina, the second quarter of 2026 is the time to quit "kicking the can" and start making moves.Ready to turn these lists into deals?

This special episode of Ask Cuyahoga features a conversation from the Department of Human Resources Inclusion Committee's Can We Talk: Conversations that Matter series.Recorded in the Cuyahoga County Council Chambers, Rhonda Crowder, President of the Greater Cleveland Association of Black Journalists, and Justice Melody J.

Foster parents needed in Cuyahoga, Summit Counties There are more than 14,000 children currently in foster care across Ohio, down from a record high of 17,000 in 2020, according to the state Department of Children and Youth. Foster care can play a critical role in supporting children and families during times of crisis, but the number of available foster parents has declined in recent years. Wednesday on the "Sound of Ideas," we're talking about what's driving that trend — including economic pressures like the ongoing affordability crisis — and what it takes to become a foster parent in Cuyahoga and Summit counties. We'll also hear about existing support systems for foster families and the impact they can have on children in need. Guests:- Karin Austin, Social Program Administrator, Cuyahoga County Division of Children and Family Services- Traci Foley, Director, Placement Services Department, Summit County Children Services- Kathleen Paydo, Foster Parent, Summit County- Kathy DiVincenzo, Executive Director & Founder, Honey from the Rock (Cleveland Foster Care Closet) Cleveland Humanities Festival: FREEDOM to Play Recreation and play are essential to children's health and development, but not all communities have equal access to safe, well-resourced spaces. As part of the 2026 Cleveland Humanities Festival, an upcoming panel conversation titled “FREEDOM to Play” will examine how these disparities, along with the over-policing of Black and brown youth, shape childhood experiences. The discussion will also explore how recreational freedom influences children's mental and emotional health and their overall sense of self. This year's festival is co-sponsored by the Schubert Center for Child Studies and the Baker-Nord Center for the Humanities. Guest:- Harrison Pinckney IV, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Recreation, Parks and Tourism Management, Penn State University

In recognition of Social Work Month, this episode of Ask Cuyahoga highlights the vital role of social work in supporting residents across every stage of life.From protecting children and strengthening families to helping seniors live safely and independently, social work is a critical part of Cuyahoga County's continuum of care through the Department of Health and Human Services. Representatives from several County divisions discuss what their work looks like day to day, how they build trust with residents during difficult moments, and what motivates them to continue serving the community.The conversation offers a closer look at the services available to residents and the people working behind the scenes to support individuals and families throughout Cuyahoga County.

Scams are evolving and so is the effort to stop them.In this episode of Ask Cuyahoga, we take a closer look at Scam Squad, a financial fraud task force led by Cuyahoga County's Department of Consumer Affairs. Working alongside federal, state, and local partners, Scam Squad is helping residents recognize, prevent, and report scams before they cause serious damage.From investment and business opportunity scams to AI-enhanced fraud, Medicare scams, contractor fraud, jury duty schemes, robocalls, and property record fraud, experts share what they're seeing right now — and the practical steps residents can take to protect themselves.If you or someone you know has been targeted by a scam, this episode offers clear guidance on what to do next and where to report it.

In this episode of Ask Cuyahoga, we explore one of Cuyahoga County's newer initiatives focused on reducing violence and strengthening community safety. Myesha Watkins, Administrator of the Office of Violence Prevention, discusses the office's mission, its collaborative approach, and how the County is working with community partners to build safer neighborhoods.

For weeks, the nation's flashpoint over immigration and enforcement has been Minneapolis where two protesters have now been shot dead by federal immigration officers. Concern is now ramping up in Ohio, where there's concern that a surge of immigration enforcement is coming to Springfield, near Dayton. The temporary protected status of thousands of Haitian refugees living there is set to expire on Feb. 3. We will begin Friday's “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable” with a discussion in how leaders are preparing for a possible enforcement in Ohio. Jury selection began this week in the trial of two former FirstEnergy executives accused of being the architects of the House Bill 6 bribery scandal in which they bribed politicians and got legislation passed that bailed out their financially struggling nuclear power plants. The trial is expected to last for two months and opening statements could happen as soon as Jan. 30. The deep freeze over the last week will stay around, without an invitation, as we flip to February. It's the longest stretch of arctic temperatures we've seen here in years. The deep cold also made it tough to dig out from last weekend's heavy snowstorm and complicated plowing roads. A combination of the numbing cold and icy roads led to schools closing for several days. Will students have to make up those days? During this cold weather, owners have been warned in several Ohio counties -- including Summit and Cuyahoga -- to bring animals indoors. Cuyahoga County's prosecutor has formed a specialized unit to deal with that, and other kinds, of animal cruelty. Northeast Ohio cities are starting to see the boon promised by the sale of recreational marijuana, legalized by voters in 2023. Sales began the next year, and cities are now seeing the first proceeds from the first year-plus of sales. Dr. Tom Mihaljevic, president and chief executive officer of the Cleveland Clinic, said the Clinic made money last year and did better financially than forecasted, and said he believes there is capacity in the community for the Clinic to build a Level 1 trauma center, though there are already two in Cleveland.

Here's some good news/bad news as we begin this Friday. First the good: We made it to Friday. Now the bad or not-so-great news: you may be spending this weekend indoors. A big wave of Arctic air will send temperatures sliding downward beginning today. Then Sunday the second act moves in, a snowstorm bringing the potential for heavy snow, including here in Northeast Ohio, while in some places in the mid and deep South possible catastrophic ice accumulations are predicted. Complicating the situation: a regional salt shortage that may impact road clearing efforts. The story begins our discussion of the week's news on the “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable.” Power outages could result from the winter storm this weekend but even on calm weather days, Ohio is having a hard time keeping up with rising energy demand. One main driver of that increased demand: data centers. Columbus has become a key location for these centers, with one report concluding it's the second-largest hub in the Great Lakes region. But those centers are popping up everywhere including in Stark County for instance. If you're heading to Downtown anytime soon, you should know that the city has updated its rates for on-street parking and enforcement. The new digital, coinless metered system will give drivers the opportunity to park at a meter for up to four hours, but at increasing hourly rates and enforcement will be extended seven days a week—except in Ohio City where Sundays will not be enforced. Cleveland City Council members are not yet sold on the Bibb administrations "pedal to the metal" approach to shut down Burke Lakefront Airport to open the acreage to lakefront redevelopment. Mayor Justin Bibb has said he would like to see Burker shuttered by 2029. The future of Burke Lakefront will be the topic of our next “Sound of Ideas Community Tour” on March 4. Property owners in Ohio's largest counties are among those that will see their next property reappraisals delayed by a year. Sixteen counties including Franklin, Cuyahoga and Hamilton are pushing back the process. Cuyahoga will next appraise properties in 2031. Fewer Ohioans are enrolled in Affordable Care Act or Obamacare plans after additional subsidies to offset costs put into effect during the pandemic expired last month.

In Pocahontas County, West Virginia, a late-night howl overpowers the radio inside a fog-blanketed car. A hiker in Cuyahoga Valley hears a perfect mimicry of his sneeze from deep in the woods. In Vermont, a truck is slammed so hard it moves—after a night of trees falling in sequence. A New Hampshire man sees a 13-foot Sasquatch across a field. From Indiana's shadowy Hoosier forest to mysterious sightings along the Ohio River, every voice adds to the chorus of what might be out there.Whether you're new to the world of Bigfoot or a seasoned believer, this episode takes you deep into the woods—and deeper into the unknown.

The Ohio Domestic Violence Network recently reported a 37% increase year-over-year in domestic violence-related fatalities. Franklin and Cuyahoga counties lead with the most documented cases.

A park ranger wakes up in Brujas Canyon after sharing the same dream as his roommate, both of whom are chased by a black bull that local lore says is a witch. Another ranger's friend steps from her tent along a desert river and meets a “woman” whose attack ends with cougar tracks and a warning whispered by tradition: some predators wear borrowed skins. Far away beneath redwoods, a hiker meets a toddler who speaks an unfamiliar word, then loses eleven minutes he can't account for, along with any trace of the boy or the man he thought was his father. What threads tie a witch-bull, skinwalkers, and missing time together in America's most protected wildlands?Night in the Smokies turns the forest mute, no wind, no insects, until a crouched, black form with burning red eyes appears on a boulder, and a heat-shimmer “something” paces hikers down the trail. In Yellowstone, a woman in 19th-century dress walks a snowed-in road at midnight, dry hair, no face. Near Gatlinburg, a man watches as a human-sized shadow collapses into a coyote shape and hops onto a log. These aren't stray campfire tales; they're consistent motifs: red-eyed sentinels, liminal crossings (bridges, bends, boulder gates), and entities that compress distance and time.Go west, and the pattern persists. A Half Dome hiker stares up at a white, pant-leg shape tucked in a cliff alcove, immobile in high wind, echoing California's “Nightcrawler” archetype. On Mount Lassen, a volcanic slope answers a teenager's call with a throat-deep roar a ranger will later name flatly: “Bigfoot.” At Crater Lake, pale eyes and a gray, low-slung humanoid glide from the dark; at Cuyahoga, a winged figure with ten-foot spread and red eyes drops from a tree as a missing camper crawls from the brush. Why the red eyes? Why the silence before the approach? Why so often at water, switchbacks, bridges, and towers?Keep reading as we map these accounts against known hot-zones, Brujas Canyon to Arches, Muir Woods to Yosemite, the Smokies to Yellowstone, Crater Lake to Cuyahoga, and test them against three working models: (1) shapeshifter lore tracking real predatory intelligences along waterways, (2) guardian/sentinel phenomena clustering at geologic and energetic thresholds, and (3) “glimmer” entities whose interference fields produce memory gaps and light suppression. The witnesses didn't just see things; they crossed into places where the land itself seemed to watch back at them.

The Cuyahoga River AOC is comprised of the lower 46.5 miles of the Cuyahoga River, including all the tributaries that drain to that section of river and the adjacent Lake Erie shoreline and its direct tributaries. Jennifer walks us through the Cuyahoga River's incredible comeback, highlighting why public access makes it one of a kind. She dives into past and ongoing restoration projects that require collaboration, accountability and measurable progress. Plus, get a glimpse of what's next when the AOC is delisted—a major milestone in the Cuyahoga's journey. Cuyahoga River AOC ➡️ cuyahogaaoc.org  Free the Falls ➡️⁠bit.ly/freethefalls ⁠ Follow Summit Metro Parks:  Facebook: ⁠summitmetroparks ⁠ Instagram: ⁠summitmetroparks ⁠ X: ⁠metro_parks

Episode 49. Angela Garcia was a 22 year old mother of two when her house caught fire claiming the lives of her two toddler daughters. Angela soon found herself standing in a courtroom accused of arson, murder, and insurance fraud. What evidence did investigators have to prove Angela had done such a horrible deed? They had some photos and some arson investigation myths that had been debunked already by the time she was tried. Two juries couldn't be convinced of her guilt and resulted in back-to-back mistrials after the juries reported they were hopelessly deadlocked. A third jury would send her to prison for a crime she didn't commit. This is the story of Angela Garcia and how a dark plea continues to cast a shadow over her life. What did Angela Garcia trade for her freedom? This is Part 1 of Angela's story on Crime to Burn.  To get involved in assisting formerly incarcerated individuals like Angela, please consider these organizations: https://innocenceproject.org/donate-monthly/#:~:text=There%20are%20many%20ways%20to,Project%20in%20your%20estate%20plans. https://exoneratednation.org/   https://www.lifeafterjustice.org/   https://organizationofexonerees.com/   This podcast is a true crime podcast about arson and criminal fires.

Ken writes “I listen to your podcast and finally have the courage to talk about this. I'm not an outspoken person about this incident due to people thinking I'm crazy but I figure now is the time to come out about it. My Three other friends who this happened to are still scarred until this day and refuse to speak on it. So here's what happened at Cuyahoga Valley national park. I was camping with some friends. There was 4 of us going up there to camp / hike and enjoy the outdoors. This happened sometime in July or August of 2019 but I can't remember exactly what day it happened. Just as we set up camp we had the bright idea to go hiking. This was right about 7-8 pm at night when the park was closed but there was still daylight out. We started hiking near the Cuyahoga river on the towpath trail. We were hiking for a good half or so down this path and all of a sudden we had something throwing sticks that slowly progressed to rocks at us. At first we thought it was teens playing tricks on us but the longer it progressed we started to smell something pungent and our hair stood straight up. By this time the sun had gone completely dark and all we had was our phone lights to guide us. We all started running back to camp as quick as we could but whatever was tracking us was faster bigger and stronger. We eventually got winded then it all stopped. Dead silent the woods were extremely quiet and still and very eerie. Suddenly we heard the loudest growl we ever heard sort of like an angry wolf / bear. A friend of mine who had a firearm on him shined the weapon mounted light into the tree line where we were and we all caught a glimpse of what appeared to be a giant man / humanoid around 7.5 feet tall and as shown as the light shined on it it retreated backwards and never to be seen again. We then gathered our breathe and ran back to the camp as quick as we could and got into our tents. As we slept we heard multiple loud sounds outside our tent and sticks breaking. In the morning when we woke up our camp was destroyed and a pile of rocks was stacked up by the fire pit. We all agreed to never camp there again.”

Ohio grew an even deeper shade of red Tuesday. Republicans dominated nationally and in the Buckeye State. Despite the early voting long lines, the actual voter turnout in 2024 lagged behind 2020. And in blue counties like Cuyahoga and Franklin the voter turnout was six to seven percentage points lower than 2020. While in Cleveland, some precincts had turnout that was off 70% from prior elections. On Friday's “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable” we will talk about the election results and what comes next as Republicans line up for Vance's seat in the U.S. Senate and the Democratic Party looks for answers. 

Election Day is less than two weeks away. County boards of elections have their hands full, but adding to the workload is the high number of voter registration challenges being filed. Elections officials say the number of challenges is unprecedented. In Wood County alone, the elections board received challenges to 16,000 voter registrations. They were all filed by one person. They all must be investigated. Voting rights organizations are concerned that recently naturalized citizens will be disenfranchised from voting in Ohio either due to poll workers' confusion or because of hurdles they say Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose's office has created. Naturalized citizens are citizens of the United States and have the same right to vote. But concerned groups say the state's photo ID law, and a new form put out by LaRose, may present difficulties for them should their status be challenged. This week Attorney General Dave Yost announced indictments in illegal voting cases in the state -- a total of 6 people. More than 8 million are registered to vote in Ohio. Three people in Franklin County and one each in Cuyahoga, Summit and Portage counties are accused of voting illegally as non-citizens in past elections. The indictments amount to less than 1% of the 600 cases the secretary of state very publicly referred to the attorney general. And the person indicted in Cuyahoga County has been dead for two years. We will begin Friday's Reporters Roundtable we will talk over some of the voting issues officials are contending with as we get closer to Election Day. 

Cuyahoga and Summit counties were the first in Ohio to sue opioid makers and distributors. Now, they have to decide how distribute the payout.

Cuyahoga Valley National Park is nestled between Akron and Cleveland, Ohio. It once was an industrial wasteland, filled with debris from the nearby auto factories. The Cuyahoga river was so polluted that it literally caught fire. That fire was a moment that sparked an environmental movement. But I'm headed upstream. I'm going to follow the river and its story from its grim past to becoming a national park. We'll look at how a toxic dump was transformed into a national park and a thriving ecosystem, teaming with life. THE WILD would not be possible without listener support.

The NEO Voters Voices poll, conducted by the Community Research Institute at Baldwin Wallace University and Survey USA, surveyed 621 registered voters in 20 Northeast Ohio counties, most heavily from Cuyahoga, Stark and Summit counties, from Sept. 26-30. The poll found that the economy is by the far the most important issue for voters heading into next months election. Sixty-four percent are worried about the economy and nearly half are either very or extremely worried. And though Ohio is not a southern border state, the second most important concern you neighbors share: immigration. We will talk about the poll and the rest of the week's news on the "Sound of Ideas" Reporters Roundtable.
