Guest:Weslea O'Connor knows what it means to have life rewritten overnight. A former real estate professional turned healthcare executive, she is now the founder and voice behind The Survivor's Edit, a deeply personal blog chronicling her journey through cancer with equal parts honesty, humor, and hope. Rather than offering clichés, Weslea explores the messy middle—the fear, resilience, relationships, and unexpected lessons that come with surviving. Her writing has resonated with readers looking for something real: not polished inspiration, but authentic humanity. Today, she joins us to talk about illness, identity, and how sometimes the most powerful stories are the ones we never planned to tell. Monologue:School Is Back In SessionMyths You Must Know Are FakeDelta 8 OUTLAWEDRare AI Books DestroyedEvery week from Dripping Springs, Texas, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis sit down with fascinating guests-from entrepreneurs and musicians to elected officials, authors, and community leaders-for conversations that are funny, authentic, and full of stories worth sharing.

Now, as Candidate-Elect for Hays County Precinct 3 Justice of the Peace, he's bringing that same calm-under-pressure approach to public service. A Wimberley native and graduate of Wimberley High School, Joseph has deep roots in the community and a reputation for practical leadership, fairness, and common sense. Whether he's responding to emergencies, running local businesses, or talking about the future of Hays County, he comes across less like a politician and more like the guy you'd actually want answering the phone when things go sideways.Monologue:Matt Does A Super TriAustin Development NewsPeaches Don't Put OutJudgemental MapSaying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

Guest:Hunter Dolinger of Black Slate Roofing and Black Slate Construction is the kind of guy who can talk roofing, construction, and coast fishing with equal intensity and probably judge your gutters before he even rings the doorbell. A Texas outdoorsman through and through, he's built a reputation for helping homeowners navigate storms, repairs, and construction chaos without the smoke-and-mirrors nonsense people expect from the industry. When he's not climbing roofs or managing projects, there's a good chance he's somewhere near water trying to outsmart a fish that weighs more than his tackle box. Dry humor? Absolutely. Nervous about podcasts? Also yes. But underneath the calm delivery is a guy with sharp takes, real stories, and enough construction horror stories to make listeners suddenly inspect their attic at midnight with a flashlight.Monologue:Ex-UrbsReal Housewives of Dripping SpringsAirline EtiquetteDigital ID- Whether You Want It Or NotSaying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

Guests:Mike Morgan and Pat Manske are two guys who've spent the last 30 years helping shape the soundtrack of the Texas Hill Country. The Zone Recording Studio founder Mike Morgan and  partner Pat Manske aren't just studio owners-they're part of the musical DNA of Dripping Springs itself. From legendary Texas artists to up-and-coming songwriters, The Zone has become the kind of place where great music gets made without the ego and nonsense. Just talent, grit, and a whole lot of late nights.Their impact was recognized in a big way when the City of Dripping Springs officially declared May 5th as “The Zone Celebration Day,” honoring three decades of contributions to the local music scene and Hill Country culture. Mike and Pat have quietly built one of the most respected recording studios in Texas-not by chasing trends, but by consistently creating a space where artists actually want to work. In a world full of auto-tune and algorithms, these guys still believe in musicianship, sound quality, and doing things the right way. Which explains why so many artists keep coming back. Today we talk music, Dripping Springs history, studio stories, and what it takes to survive-and thrive-for 30 years in an industry that chews people up faster than a drummer with free tacos and an open bar.Monologue:The Return Of Michelle!You Run Like A GirlBlue Dot FeverTed Turner RememberedSaying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

SPECIAL GUEST HOST CARLISLE KENNEDY FILLS IN FOR MICHELLEGuest:Today's guest is Robert Parker II, Commander of VFW Post 2933 in Dripping Springs — a guy who went from growing up on a tiny island in Maine and commercial fishing to serving 30 years in the U.S. Army as a Military Policeman, Drill Sergeant, Recruiter, and Command Sergeant Major. Basically, if leadership had a uniform, Rob wore it. Now he's serving veterans and the local community here in the Hill Country with the same steady, no-drama leadership style. He's a husband, father, grandfather, church volunteer, outdoorsman, and one of the few people alive who proudly says quitting social media made him happier. Frankly… the man may be onto something. Monologue:Foreclosures Jump In Q1 2026Silver TsunamiRetail Closure SurgeMac and Cheese CrimeSaying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

Guest:Carrie Napiorkowski is a Dripping Springs local who doesn't just live in the Hill Country, she fights for it. She's a licensed aesthetic educator with a long track record in the skincare world, but around here, she's just as well known for speaking up when it matters. Carrie has been a vocal advocate on issues impacting the community—from development concerns to protecting displaced citizens and preserving the character of Dripping Springs. She's not afraid to challenge the status quo, ask tough questions, and push for accountability when growth starts to outpace common sense. She's the kind of person who shows up when things get complicated—and stays in the fight long after most people head home. Thoughtful, direct, and deeply invested in the future of the Hill Country, Carrie brings a perspective that's equal parts passion and practicality. We find common ground on the kind of issues most people just shout past each other about. This episode is a real example of how neighbors with different perspectives can come together and actually move the needle where it matters.Monologue:Library On Wheels Is RollingElectric Scooters Wreak HavocProto-Town and Start Up CowboysTicket Masters Called OutCar Buying PitfallsMother's Day Coming UpSaying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

Guests:President Susan Kimball and Board Chair Eustacio Lara are two of the driving forces behind the Dripping Springs Chamber of Commerce—and if you think that just means ribbon cuttings and name tags, think again. Between them, they've got a front-row seat to the growth, grit, and growing pains of one of the fastest-evolving communities in the Texas Hill Country.Susan brings a sharp eye for community connection and the kind of leadership that keeps local businesses not just surviving, but actually working together. Eustacio (Deep Eddy Vodka Tasting Room) pairs that with a grounded, real-world perspective on what it takes to build relationships that matter—whether it's with small business owners, new residents, or the folks who've been here long before Dripping Springs was cool.Together, they sit at the intersection of business, community, and change—where big ideas meet small-town values. If you want to understand what's really happening behind the scenes in Dripping Springs—what's working, what's not, and where things are headed—these are two people who don't just talk about it… they help shape it.Monologue:Oak Hill Overpass Opens To Cheers!Suds Brothers Cleans Up Dripping SpringsBusiness Struggles in AustinIronman Drowns At TX RaceRobots Run Us Into The GroundSaying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

Guest:Kylie Zschiesche may be young but already rewriting the script most twenty-somethings are being handed. Raised in the piney woods of East Texas, she grew up with grit, faith, and a front-row seat to real life, not some curated version of it. While the world keeps telling her generation to stay unattached, chase chaos, and “figure it out later,” Kylie built a life on purpose, married young, grounded in her values, and focused on work that actually matters. She's traded the idea of endless wandering for commitment, clarity, and a vision of a future that looks a whole lot like stability, family, and faith. If you're wondering what it looks like to go against the grain and not apologize for it, this is it.Monologue:Run By The Creek IS BACK! Air TaxisAirBNB Horror StoryTexan Of The YearNew Mexico Loses Land To TX? Saying what needs to be said and broadcasting straight outta Dripping Springs, Steve Mallett and Michelle Lewis serve up unfiltered, unforgettable conversations with the most interesting folks you've never heard of-yet.

On this episode, we sit down with bass angler Andrew Behnke for a laid-back conversation that covers a little bit of everything—from chasing giant bass to tacos and staying in shape for long days on the water. Andrew shares the story of how he got into fishing, the path that led him into competitive bass angling, and the mindset it takes to keep pushing in the sport. We also dive into his approach to fitness, how it ties into performance on the water, and a few laughs along the way about life outside of fishing. Of course, we couldn't skip the story of the absolute behemoth largemouth pushing 12 pounds that he landed—an unforgettable catch that every angler dreams about. It's a fun, honest conversation about passion, persistence, and enjoying the ride.
