A weekly discussion about all things 706 focused on Columbus, Fort Benning and northern GA...IE "The 706".  We put a 706 lens on today's issues and keep the focus here.  We  believe we need local discussions with your neighbors so we don't spend our time debating with someone in NY/LA/DC/ATL about 706 issues.  We dive deep into culture, politics, military matters, and the topics that really impact you...sometimes controversial but always honest.  Your host, Michael, is a local brewery owner (who doesn't drink....a future episode for sure), a retired Army Special Operator with 7 tours, a graduate of U of New Hampshire and Columbia University, and a genuine free thinker always asking questions and demanding facts.  Join us as we explore the world of the 706 in our own words as we talk amongst ourselves.

Episode 9 - You don't know "The Springer" until you hear Brian Luedtke speak on it....hilarious and very useful podcast full of a lot of "did you know" moments.   We have a historic gem right here in downtown Columbus and it deserves recognition!   By the way, if you ever want to meet Brian stop by the beer garden every Sunday at 6 pm....he's always there for a beer and conversation.  After you bust up laughing for an hour you'll probably want to swing by and meet this awesome man I am proud to call a friend.
