Downtown Lowdown: An Exciting First Year
In 2025, we launched The Downtown Lowdown with a simple goal: to tell the story of downtown Tipp City through the voices of the people who live it, lead it, build it, and care deeply about it.
What started as an idea quickly became a growing collection of conversations about downtown life. Some episodes looked back at history and preservation. Others reflected the present day, the projects in motion, the people behind the work, and the traditions that bring our community together. The Downtown Lowdown became a place to slow down, listen, and capture stories that might otherwise go untold.
In our very first year, we welcomed an incredible group of guests who helped create a living snapshot of downtown Tipp City in 2025, including Kelly Downing, Ashley Mauk, Lisa Santucci, Gordon Honeyman, Cathi Hall, Abbey Credit Union, Samantha McFadden, Phil Cox, Amanda Carl, and Sue Shira. We also hosted Board of Education candidate interviews and had conversations with Kathy Skinner, Mike McDermott, Christy Jacobs, Shawn Sugden, Glen McMurry, Zach Snyder, Rob Craft, Joe Labor, Rob Brown, Bill Wendel, Dawn Kramer, Kayla Buehrer, and Lewis Renollet.
Because of those conversations, and the willingness of so many people to share their time and stories, Downtown Lowdown ranked #46 in the Top 90 Downtown Podcasts of 2025. That recognition belongs to every guest who said yes and every listener who tuned in.
And we’re excited to share what comes next: thanks to generous support from the Tipp Foundation, The Downtown Lowdown is back for all of 2026. We are truly thankful for their support, and we hope you’ll subscribe to the free podcast and keep listening as we continue to share the voices and stories that make downtown Tipp City what it is.
Thank you to every guest who trusted us with their story, and every listener who helped make this first year something special.
We’re just getting started.
