The Kentucky Side with Michael Monks logo

On this episode of The Kentucky Side with Michael Monks, we are joined by the mayors of Bellevue and Dayton, Charlie Cleves and Ben Baker, to talk about their cities’ recovery out of the pandemic, economic growth, opportunities to collaborate on shared governance, and challenges faced by each.

We also talk about LINK nky, and how it came to be by the establishment of LINK Media and the acquisition of The River City News and Fort Thomas Matters. LINK Media CEO Lacy Starling and COO Mark Collier join CCO Michael Monks to share that story.

The Kentucky Side is recorded at Northern Kentucky University and is produced by Cam Miller.

Michael Monks was one of the founding members of LINK nky.
