Jewel Art Gallery

May 4, 2022 • 25 mins
There weren’t many (read any) art galleries where I grew up. The irony to that fact was that I grew up painting, not pastoral scenes or portraits, but automobiles. And though there is a good amount of skill required in rebuilding wrecked cars and trucks and returning them to a “new” condition, I never considered it to be artwork as such. Airbrushing is a different thing entirely, and can be considered art, but that talent was never...

CRe05: Sky37 Bistro

April 22, 2022 • 29 mins
If you are in downtown Ashland Kentucky at the SkyTower business complex, you can find Jason Crum and his wife Carma at Sky37 Bistro brewing an amazing cup of coffee. “It’s been a long way to get here,” Jason said. “We worked a lot through the pandemic, and since it was difficult to find people to work we did most of this ourselves. But it was kind of a labor of love, and we are glad we’re open. And the reception in Ashland has jus...

CRe04: Geek Inc. Jarrod Greer

April 15, 2022 • 34 mins
My friend Jarrod Greer describes himself as a “serial entrepreneur,” and I have to admit that the title fits. Jarrod will trade on almost anything, and he regularly travels both locally and states away looking for people selling collections or even unique individual items that he can either resell or simply because it strikes his fancy. While we were recording the podcast, I was sitting directly across from one of his more recent a...

CRe03: Imel’s Greenhouse

April 8, 2022 • 34 mins
I have been listening to people brag about Imel’s Greenhouse on Route 1 in Greenup, Kentucky almost as long as I’ve known the owner Kenny Imel and his family. And that is quite some time, because I have known Kenny for over 25 years. He and his brother started the Greenhouse a long time ago, and his brother moved on to other things, but Kenny kept growing and sharing everything with the people of Greenup and pretty much everywhere ...

CRe02: Corduroy Brown

March 7, 2022 • 40 mins
Alan Brown - Corduroy Brown Take just a second to imagine that one of your closest friends was a talented musician, and not just talented but so good that he made everything look easy. Imagine that when he picks up a guitar, he kind of melds with it, and the sound that vibrates from the strings catch you on the most basic level and pulls you through into the story. The man becomes his music, and that music wraps around you until...

CRe00: Who in the world is Charlie Romans?

March 7, 2022 • 1 min
Hi, I’m Charlie Romans and welcome to the show. My life is probably a lot like yours. I grew up around here, I traveled a bit, and then I came home. Why? Because it’s home; and like the little girl from Kansas said, there’s no place like it. Home is where the family is and where our friends are – and those two things alone make home the most wonderful place you’ll ever be. Sure, it’s nice to visit other places and do different t...
