What makes a city feel like home — the buildings, the businesses, or the people behind them?

Bill McKinney sits down with three longtime Tallahassee personalities to talk about the city they’ve watched change for decades.

In this episode of Rev’d Up with Bill McKinney, Bill is joined by Dale Brown, George Gavallas, and Scott Carswell for a conversation spanning Tallahassee history, local business, live entertainment, Florida State football, golf, technology, customer service, and the relationships that keep people coming back.

Scott shares stories from more than four decades in live entertainment, including how major acts get booked and why concerts can benefit an entire city. George talks about the evolution of Nick’s Toggery, dressing generations of Tallahassee customers, and keeping a family business relevant. Dale brings stories from Capital City Country Club and a perspective on how Tallahassee has changed across generations.

The conversation ultimately comes back to something that matters whether you’re buying clothes, attending a concert, playing golf, or buying a car: relationships still matter.

What do beer festivals, car payments, mental health, electric vehicles and community service have in common? More than you might think.

On this episode of Revved Up with Bill McKinney, Bill sits down with Nigel Allen of the TMH Foundation and Ben Graybar for a wide-ranging Tallahassee conversation about giving back, the Tallahassee Beer Festival, financial health and making smarter decisions with your money.

They dig into why giving doesn't always mean writing a check, how local volunteers stepped up after devastating storms, and how community events can generate real support for local nonprofits. Nigel also shares what's happening around the TMH Foundation, its signature gala and programs helping local families.

Then the conversation turns to cars and money. Bill explains why buyers shouldn't make an impulsive car purchase, what it really means when a lender asks for a large down payment or co-signer, why 0% financing deserves a closer look, and how changing gas prices can affect truck values.

Plus: EVs, hybrids, Ford's electrification investments, dealership price transparency and what the future of car buying could look like.

If you're buying a car, financing a vehicle, considering an EV or simply want to hear how Tallahassee businesses and nonprofits are working together, this episode has something for you.
