Helloooo Listen Localers!

Hope you are all having a great day, and are in the mood for a great podcast episode, because that's exactly what we have for you today!

On this week's show we catch up with Mike Kuck. You may know Mike from the Jaycees, Schroeders Appliance and Home Services, or maybe even as the NEW OWNER of The Smokestack BBQ Supply Store. Yes, that's right, we had speculated on the show who was going to take the reins of the Smokestack from our pal Cory Jay, and we now know it was Mike and the group from Schroeders Home Services. We dive into all of that, and so much more! Huge thanks to Mike for making the "trek north" to our Listen Local studio.

Then, after Mike heads out, Isaiah and Jacob talk some Local Happenings!
So tune in to hear it all!
