    Fridays With Larry - July 3, 2026
    2026/07/03
    his week on Fridays With Larry: the story of Angela Allen, a local newspaper reporter in rural Sullivan County, southwest Indiana. When a large firm bought her paper, Angela lost her reporting job — until public demand brought her back part-time to keep covering the community. She says she later lost her full-time job due to political pressure on her employer, leaving her unable to make ends meet on part-time reporting income alone. It's a story about the cost of local journalism, the power of a community that refuses to lose its voice, and one reporter's determination to keep telling the truth. Support Angela's fight to keep local reporting alive: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-angela-allen-stand-up-for-truth Watch the video version on YouTube and read the full write-up at LarryInFishers.com.

    Fridays With Larry July 17, 2026
    2026/07/17
    Larry Lannan talks with Connor Smith, an 18-year-old from Fishers, Indiana, who plays professional wiffle ball for the Atlanta Ballers — a team owned in part by former NFL star Julio Jones and musician Nelly. Connor shares how backyard games during COVID led to being drafted 10th overall, why wiffle ball became his "happy place" after the pressures of organized baseball, and his plans to become an elementary school teacher. Larry also reflects on the decline of unstructured, kid-organized outdoor play, examines why American worker productivity is growing at its fastest pace in over 20 years (hint: it's not AI), and shares the story of 600-plus trombonists in Australia breaking a Guinness World Record with "76 Trombones."

    This week on Fridays with Larry, I explore how Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) has changed college athletics and created new opportunities for student-athletes and businesses alike. My guest is Erik Braden, CEO of Braden Business Systems in Fishers. Erik talks about the company's partnerships with former Purdue basketball star Braden Smith and Indiana University football players Josh Hoover and Khobie Martin. He also explains how those relationships have helped support Gleaners Food Bank and other community initiatives. I begin the podcast with commentary on the growing impact of NIL on college sports and conclude with a lighter story about Disneyland welcoming its one-billionth guest. Thanks for listening to Fridays with Larry. If you enjoy the podcast, please follow, share, and visit LarryInFishers.com for more local news, podcasts and community coverage.

  • Laura Turner, Realtor, on the housing market in the Fishers area

    Laura Turner, Realtor, on the housing market in the Fishers area
    2026/07/15
    Is Fishers a buyer's market or a seller's market? Veteran realtor Laura Turner of F.C. Tucker says it's a bit of both — and that Hamilton County is really three separate markets right now. Turner, one of the top-producing agents in the Indianapolis metro area, returns to the podcast to break down what's happening in local real estate: why higher-priced homes are flying while the $400K–$600K range faces stiff competition from new construction, how baby boomers staying put are fueling the inventory crunch, and what the new federal housing bill could mean for multi-family building. She also shares practical advice for today's buyers and sellers — from assumable mortgages and builder rate buy-downs to a savings strategy for first-time buyers facing a median price above $400,000 — plus her take on the overturned rental ordinances in Fishers and Carmel, and a 12-month forecast for the local market. Whether you're buying, selling, or just curious what your home is worth, this conversation is packed with local insight you won't find in national headlines.

  • Mayor Scott Fadness on Free Speech & Public Safety

    Mayor Scott Fadness on Free Speech & Public Safety
    2026/07/16
    With a rally by the group Save Heritage Indiana planned in Fishers for August 1, Mayor Scott Fadness sits down with Larry Lannan at City Hall to discuss free speech, public safety and the role of a mayor when national controversies arrive at the city's doorstep. Fadness explains why the city can't — and he believes shouldn't — shut down the event, how Fishers police are preparing to protect both attendees and protesters, and what he says to residents, including members of the local Muslim community, who feel targeted. He also reflects on when a mayor should speak out, the cost of staying silent, and his advice for disagreeing with a neighbor while still living next door.
