Mayor Monday - Mike McCann

This week on The Four Hundred & Nineteen, we kick off Mayor Monday with a thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation about community, leadership, and what it really means to live next to one another.Mike McCann, Mayor of Defiance, Ohio, joins us in studio to talk about the realities of leading a smaller city, how community identity is shaped (and sometimes mis-shaped) by media portrayals, and why local government often feels a lot like real life — messy, human, and deeply personal. From pop-culture references to the day-to-day responsibilities of being mayor, this conversation pulls back the curtain on leadership at the local level.If you care about civic pride, local leadership, and the power of knowing your neighbors — this one’s for you.Thanks to our sponsors: Whetro Wealth Management, Workspring, Toledo Refining Company, Toledo Community Foundation and TARTA.Catch the show 3 times every day on WGTE. 7am on WGTE’s YouTube Channel. 3pm on the radio at FM91. 6pm on TV channel 30.4 WGTE Connects.
