    Jason Richey - RCAC Chair
    2025/10/23
    In this pivotal pre-election episode, hosts Todd McCollum and Russell Dryer are joined by Jason Richey, Chairman of the Republican Committee of Allegheny County (RCAC), for a wide-ranging conversation on the Republican resurgence in Pittsburgh and beyond. Jason shares how the GOP has expanded from 50% to 98% local committee coverage in just months, the strategy behind forming regional committees like Woodland Hills and Fox Chapel, and why the 2025 election could flip County Council control for the first time in decades. From energizing voters in long-forgotten areas like McKeesport and the Mon Valley to supporting working-class candidates like Mike Dell, Mary Jo Wise, Len Iorio, and Patrick Provins, Jason lays out a bold plan for reclaiming Allegheny County through grassroots momentum, commonsense policies, and real leadership. The episode also touches on judicial races, key countywide candidates, and why a vote for Republicans this November is a vote for accountability, economic growth, and public safety. Special Guest: Jason Richey.

  • Len Iorio & Michael Dell - Candidates for County Council

    Len Iorio & Michael Dell - Candidates for County Council
    2025/10/09
    In this episode of The Right Side of the Rivers, hosts Todd McCollum and Russell Dryer sit down with two candidates who are running to restore fiscal responsibility and working-class representation to Allegheny County government: Len Iorio (District 12) and Michael Dell (District 8). Len shares his motivation for running against incumbent Bob Palmosina - the architect of the recent 36% county property tax hike - and outlines his vision for reining in bloated budgets and refocusing county government on core services. Michael, a CPA and former finance chair on Plum Borough Council, explains why Allegheny County is on the brink of financial crisis and how his professional experience is urgently needed to stop wasteful spending, avoid future reassessments, and bring transparency to county budgeting. The episode also covers the larger stakes of the 2025 election, including how electing just four new Republican candidates could create a firewall against future tax hikes, and how rising business vacancies and runaway spending in Downtown Pittsburgh are affecting communities across the entire county. From West End to Monroeville, from Overbrook to Swissvale, Len and Mike make the case for commonsense leadership - and why now is the time to flip Allegheny County Council. Special Guests: Len Iorio and Michael Dell.

    Todd McCollum & Patrick Provins - Candidates for County Council
    2025/09/25
    In this episode of The Right Side of the Rivers, guest co-host Eileen Cunningham sits in for Russell Dreyer as she’s joined by two Republican candidates for Allegheny County Council: show host Todd McCollum, running in District 13, and Patrick Provins, running in District 9. Both men bring decades of public service experience—Todd as a neighborhood advocate and committee chair, and Patrick as a U.S. military veteran, career paramedic, and small business owner. Together, they dive into the distinct challenges facing their regions—from the need for greater transparency and accountability in District 13 to stalled growth and overlooked resources in the Mon and Steel Valleys of District 9. The conversation explores public safety, regional committee-building, and why grassroots leadership is the key to giving forgotten communities a voice. With both Todd and Patrick focused on revitalization, fiscal responsibility, and protecting county assets, this episode brings two strong conservative perspectives into one candid, solution-driven conversation about the future of Allegheny County. Special Guests: Eileen Cunningham and Patrick Provins.
