The News Man Weekly Podcast is brought to you by our friends at Relax, It’s Just Coffee!
MANSFIELD — From music to motorsports to workforce development, Clint Knight wears a lot of hats — and we talk about all of them in this week’s 51st episode of the News Man Weekly podcast.
By day, Knight is the workforce development director for the Richland Area Chamber & Economic Development, working to build a talent pipeline that can support the region’s evolving economic needs.
Outside the office, he runs Valley Media and Productions, curates the Sunday Songwriter Series at the Phoenix, and co-hosts the Ohio Dirt Track Podcast.
We dig into Clint’s southern history as a musician and his passion for local music — including his work creating intimate singer/songwriter showcases.
We discuss his deep roots in the dirt track racing scene, where he co-hosts a podcast and is closely following the revival of the Mansfield Motorsports Speedway.
We also touch on his day job in workforce development and what it really takes to prepare a community for industrial growth.
Plus: Local news headlines from around the region, including a death penalty case in Morrow County, inmate overdoses at RICI and the latest on solar energy restrictions in Richland County.
