Tons of people in Woodbury have amazing ideas, thoughts, events, programs, etc. to promote and there should be as many outlets to share those across the city as possible. A city like ours is so strong because we don’t shy away from discussing with one another the things that matter most in our lives and that’s exactly what this podcast will highlight.

This may be the most excited I’ve ever been about a guest! I sat down with Yasmin Velazquez, owner of El Manantial Restaurant - the premier and authentic Mexican restaurant & grocery store right downtown at the old Nut Shop store (17 S. Broad Street) We're right in the middle of Hispanic Heritage Month – celebrated between September 15th and October 15th – and I want to make sure that our Hispanic & Latino communities in Woodbury know que este podcast celebra la inmensa diversidad y es lo que nos hace tan especiales como ciudad. Si este es el primer episodio que está escuchando, agradezco profundamente su apoyo y sé que cuando digo que la voz de Woodbury es importante, eso significa todas nuestras voces. Enjoy listening! ¡Espero que disfrutes!…
Hope you're all enjoying your summer and gearing up for fall right around the corner! I'm so excited about this long-awaited episode with Chris Mazzone, co-founder of Eight & Sand brewery right on N. Evergreen Ave. Chris and I chatted about all things beer, history, and Woodbury so be sure your volume is up and your listening well because the information and history we share on this episode will easily make a fan-favorite for sure! As Chris would say, quick & safe travels!…
So very excited to be kicking off season 3 in a super special way. As most folks not, but if you didn’t know, I’ve been the Program Director for a local community development program in the City called Woodbury Heart & Soul. I’d been kicking around the idea for almost a year about how to discuss our work on this podcast and I think we’ve finally found the perfect way to do it. I asked a few folks from our leadership team to join me in a chat about the program AND about our newly approved logo which we’re unveiling today along with this podcast episode. And as an extra treat, we’ve made this the first episode where I am actually a guest and none other than my wonderful girlfriend Ashley is steering the ship! We hope you enjoy listening!…
Grateful to be closing out Season 2 with a very special guest - Chief of the Woodbury Police Department, Tom Ryan! We started Season 2 with Terry Collins to discuss the Black Lives Matter movement and the historic rally that took place in the City last June. To wrap up the season Chief Ryan and I chat about the work under his leadership this last six years to improve the Department, and how he hopes to connect more with the community no matter the circumstances. It's opportunities like this, and many others, that make Woodbury such a special place - hope you enjoy listening!…
Excited to kick off 2021 with an amazing nonprofit here in the City – the PTAH Initiative. PTAH stands for Professional Trainers Advancing Humanity, and they provide professional services, programs, and initiatives to Woodbury youth to support their mental, physical, emotional, and social health. They’ve got a great storefront at 232 S. Broad right next to the police station and I encourage anyone looking for a great community space to learn, grow, and connect as community to stop by. Coach Ptah and Danielle are looking to make their place in the community like a Big Mom’s house and I know we all need that more than ever. Enjoy listening…
I got to sit down with Kyle Batie, site coordinator for the HFC Woodbury location on Delaware Street, to chat quickly about some of the most important aspect of HFC’s work. The services HFC provides are open to the entire Woodbury and regional community, and Kyle has a great vision for expanding the Center further out into the community. So keep your eyes peeled for new great stuff on the horizon coming from the Hispanic Center in 2021! You can find more information about the Woodbury HFC on their Facebook page at https://m.facebook.com/hispanicfamilycenter/…
Excited to share this next episode to spotlight a new business with a familiar address – The Cultural Collective. Sadia and Anitra are business partners who will be re-opening the building that once house the MADE. Artisan Marketplace at 65 N. Broad Street downtown. I sat down with both of these wonderful entrepreneurs to talk about their venture into a new collaborative business model focused on emphasizing Black owned business and work. I hope you enjoy listening!…
So excited to share this conversation I had with an amazing Woodbury leader and friend of mine, Dr. Melinda Johnson! Dr. Johnson is long-time Woodbury resident with incredible knowledge about and excitement to transform our communities for the better. She’s been doing this through joining various committees like Heart & Soul and the Neighborhood Preservation Program, she was recently elected to the Woodbury school board, and even more recently she started the journey of establishing a nonprofit organization – the Johnson Manor of Faith and Education. This conversation was so deep and passionate, it’s going to one that I certainly listen to at least once a week for some inspiration and excitement moving into the fall.…
This is a very special and exciting episode of Woodbury Voice! because I got to do some live recording at Wing Dickerson for Celebrating Families Day on Saturday, August 15th. This was an event hosted by Success 1st and the 21st Century Learning Center to uplift our City’s families as they prepare to start the school year once again and to bring our communities just a little bit closer in a time where we really need some unity and support. I got to sit down with some of the all-time greatest guests this podcast will ever hear from: our City’s youth! So many families came out to attend the event so I naturally had to hear from the biggest and brightest minds of the generation and I hope that you enjoy listening to them actively engaging with their community. I’ll be jumping in and out of this episode with a few interludes so I truly hope that you enjoy listening!…
I’m so excited that I got the chance to sit down with my very good friend Ryan Morrison, owner and operator of Tiki Tiki board games. Tiki Tiki is slowly becoming a Woodbury staple and community gathering place with a unique twist on nostalgia and nerdom – it’s truly a place anyone can enjoy. And I hope you that you enjoy listening!…
I got to sit down with Michelle Yeager, the Director of the Woodbury Public Library, alongside Leah Klem and Kaylyn Roger who respectively the outgoing and incoming chairs for the Friends of the Public Library. This was such an important conversation to have as we start to see restrictions being lifted for public spaces, like libraries, and how folks like Michelle, Leah, and Kaylyn have been moving their work forward despite these difficult times. *Disclaimer: I was not recording at my usual site, so the audio is not up to my standards at all, but it’s what we’ve got and I hope you enjoy listening regardless!…
I’m really excited to be rolling along into season two with my next guest – Angela Rogers. Angela is in charge of the 21st Century Community Learning Center, which is a really great program that has been running in our city’s school system for nearly five years now! The program focuses on building up and edifying Woodbury youth through activities and initiatives that support development of real-life skills and career training. There’s also a huge focus on making sure that families are incorporated into these activities and this program as a whole to ensure that our youth are growing up and developing into strong and responsible citizens right along the folks that invest so much into them. Enjoy listening!…
We're officially kicking off Season 2 of the podcast after a LONG hiatus! I sat down with local resident and organizer Terry Collins to talk about the upcoming rally this Saturday (June 6th) as a response to the public execution of George Floyd in Minneapolis last week. The rally will start at Wing-Dickerson Park on Carpenter Street at 1:00 pm. There will be a march from the park to the Superior Court Complex on Hunter Street. I hope to see you there! #BlackLivesMatter…
So excited to sit down with my friend and the owner of MADE. Artisan Marketplace - Jamilah Damiani. MADE is located at 65 N. Broad Street downtown in Woodbury and is the newest jewel in the city's crown when it comes to seeing what real development centered around people and the arts can do for our community. Be sure to follow them on Instagram (@made_artisan_mktplc) and on Facebook (MADE. Artisan Marketplace) to stay up to date on all of their wonderful events, programs, and offerings!…
I got to sit down with my very own mother for today’s episode to speak about an enormously important discussion: addiction. Full disclosure, my mother suffered from an opioid addiction for well over a decade while I was growing up and for better or worse it shaped me into the man I am today. Knowing how extremely prevalent this issue is in many lives across the country, and given the focus of 2020 being aimed “impact,” I felt that it was rightly timed to be a little more open and honest in our conversations with this podcast. It’ll be the same theme you see running throughout future episodes and our Instagram (@woodburyvoice) so please be sure to follow along as we focus our year on impacting our communities and moving the city forward together with one voice. Enjoy!…
