    “Post Super Bowl, Showdowns & Small-Town Love”

    (Warning: Explicit Episode) Well hey there, Ruckusville! Welcome back to The Small Town Ruckus — the only podcast where the town’s small, the takes are loud, and somebody’s uncle is definitely yelling at the radio right now.  We’ve got a packed episode today. We’re recapping the Super Bowl — the commercials, the snacks, and yes… that Kid Rock performance that had half the town fired up and the other half asking, “Is this still halftime?” We’ll break it all down the only way we know how: with strong opinions and zero athletic credentials. Then we’re heading straight from the stadium lights to the fluorescent glow of the Ruckusville Community Center for the legendary Show Dad Showdown  It’s less ESPN, more PTO energy. We’ll also get into some real talk about our rural schools — the challenges they’re facing, why mentorship matters more than ever, and how sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for a kid is just show up and say, “Hey, I believe in you.” (And maybe help them with math homework we barely understand.) Plus, we’re taking a stroll down Main Street to celebrate the local businesses that keep this town ticking — the hardware stores, diners, and auto shops that know your name, your vehicle’s strange noise, and probably your grandmother. And since love is in the air — or at least in the seasonal aisle at the grocery store — we’ll wrap things up with Valentine’s Day plans, heart-shaped regrets, and a look ahead at what’s coming next for The Small Town Ruckus. So grab your sweet tea, settle into that recliner, and turn the volume up just enough for the neighbors to wonder what you’re laughing at. Let’s make some noise, Ruckusville. 🎙️

    Superbowl talk with the "Humped Up Halloween Cat"

    Welcome back to The Small Town Ruckus, the podcast where the town is small but the chaos has frequent-flyer miles. Kaid just got back from Nashville—still wearing his Hey Dudes, still telling stories that start with “so I met this guy,” and acting like Broadway didn’t change him. And Mo? She’s fresh off a Mexican paradise vacation—tan, relaxed, and about three seconds away from reminding us how broke we are. She’s back in the lounge, glowing, hydrated, and absolutely not ready to deal with our nonsense. Buckle up, turn it up, and hide your passport—the ruckus is back.

    Re-boot with the Ruckus......

    Alright, alright, alright… welcome back to the lounge. This isn’t a think-piece. This isn’t a debate stage. This is not a place for hot takes with PowerPoint slides. This is where Tracy, Casey, and Kaid kick their feet up, talk reckless, laugh too loud, and remember why this podcast even exists in the first place. Somewhere along the way, life got serious… so today, we’re doing the opposite. No agendas. No deep dives. Just jokes, chaos, and whatever happens when three mics are on and the lounge doors are closed. If you’re here for wisdom — you might accidentally get some. If you’re here for humor — you’re finally in the right place. Welcome back to the roots. Welcome back to the lounge. Let’s get into it.

    Clair David's upcoming Stem Cell Treatment in Panama.....

    Today’s episode is one that comes straight from the heart. We’re sitting down with Chelsey David, the mom of a little boy who has already rewritten every rule he was ever given. Her son, Clair David, entered this world in crisis—born via emergency C-section, not breathing, rushed to the NICU with multiple organ failure. Doctors warned his family that cerebral palsy was a strong possibility, and months later, that diagnosis became reality: Spastic Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy. But Clair is not a diagnosis—he is a miracle. From surviving CPR as an infant, to enduring countless hospital stays, therapy sessions, and medical appointments, Clair has shown a determination and joy that defy expectations. Today, his life is supported by nine specialty physicians, eleven therapists, and relentless early intervention focused on neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to rewire and heal. Now, Chelsey and her family are preparing for the next step in Clair’s journey: traveling to Panama for stem cell treatment, one of the promising therapies offering hope for long-term progress in children with cerebral palsy. These treatments aren’t covered by insurance, and each one comes at a staggering cost—but this community and others have shown up in a powerful way. Their GoFundMe has already surpassed $20,000 raised, a testament to what happens when people rally around hope, courage, and a child worth fighting for. In this episode, Chelsey shares their story with honesty, vulnerability, and unwavering belief in what’s possible. This is a conversation about resilience, faith, medical advocacy, and choosing hope—even when medicine says there are limits. This is Clair’s story. And it’s only just beginning. 🎙️💙
