This episode brings our listeners another community conversation with a first time candidate. Cate Berger is running to be the state representative of Ohio’s 41st district. We wondered what motivates first time candidates, and if elected, how they can bring change to Montgomery County.
Cate Berger is a committed Daytonian working across our community to make an impact on the every day life of all people who call here home. Cate believes she has the unique ability to bring real change to the issues that affect people and families of the 41st District of Ohio.
Cate has extensive work experience across broad sectors of our local economy including workforce development, healthcare, and education. As the daughter of a retired U.S. Naval Reserve Commander with 35 years in the defense industry, and the sister of a Lieutenant Commander in the U.S. Navy, Cate also strongly supports our military for not only the work they do abroad but also the impact of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base for many of our district’s families.
Cate is an active volunteer within our community and a vocal advocate for deserving causes and underserved populations. She was a member of Leadership Dayton’s Class of 2018 and Dayton Business Journal’s 40 Under 40 Class of 2019.

Modern Witchcraft takes the band’s well lived penchant for heavy, etherial & atmospheric doom/post-metal vibes & casts layers of vocal melody and a more traditional rock sensibility.
With weighty to the point song structures Modern Witchcraft is the band’s heaviest record to date while simultaneously being their most adventurous and delicate in content. Close The Hatch have proven they can continue to evolve since their 2011 conception and Modern Witchcraft is the biggest leap in evolution for this Dayton, OH based act.
Independent of strict classification, yet beholden to the lineage of conceptual metal Close The Hatch stride confidently in the footsteps of post and doom metal heavyweights like Neurosis and Isis yet emote with such conviction that they stand firmly on their own. Close the Hatch has shown continual evolution in sound and structure, exploring darker avenues of punishing riffs while seamlessly intertwining atmosphere, melody & ethereal elements over the coarse of their musical output.

As Ohio starts to reopen, we here at the Gem City Podcast, wanted to check in with restaurant and venue owner Wasfi Samaan, who co-owns J.D. Legends in Franklin. Wasfi also owns and operates GTG Promotions, which hosts a variety of mid-size concerts around the state of Ohio. Both of his businesses were greatly impacted by the coronavirus shutdown.
In this episode, we talk to Wasfi the challenges and changes that had to be made in order to safely reopen. He also talks about the prospects of bringing concerts back, and what new opportunities and ventures Wasfi is pursuing. What we like most about this conversation is how positive and upbeat his is despite losing so much.
J.D. Legends is located at 65 Millard drive, Franklin, Ohio. Their patio is currently open 1pm-1am Friday and Saturday and 1pm-11pm Sunday-Thursday. Call 937-746-4950 to make reservations. The venue sits directly off Interstate 75 on Route 73 (Springboro / Franklin exit), and offers a host of entertainment options. Inside there is a bowling alley, a restaurant, a sports bar and nightclub. Outside, there’s multiple sand volleyball courts, a tiki bar and outdoor stage for bigger concerts.

Our host Libby Ballengee had her first front page story in the Dayton Daily News. Quite the thrill for her! The funny thing was, it was all about mousetraps and ping pong balls. Not the usual ingredients for a front page story, but nonetheless, the piece received lots of comments and praise.
Her accolades were a teeny tiny fraction in comparison to the thrill that our guest today felt as a result of that story. Andy Nick from Real Art, was the true subject, and how he and his team turned a simple 30 second commercial involving mouse traps and ping pong balls into a phenomenon that’s been viewed well over 20 million times and counting.
Andy is also an avid Flyers fan, music lover, video gamer and proud Dayton we are honored to host him on the podcast. In this episode we explore what it feels like to be retweeted by J.K. Rowling, what makes Dayton special, and lots more! Enjoy!
We want to also send a big thank you and shout to everyone who has been supporting our funding campaign at Ko-Fi.com/venuschild. We are providing independent journalism and we are grateful for the support.
