ROGERSCAST.COM
Well I've finally gotten a second Rogerscast
podcast up. Here's what it is all about...
This
time around on Rogerscast we will be talking about the recent forced
resignation of our Chief of Police, Keith Oldfather. Councilman
Scott Adams says that they did not specifically go after the Chief
to run him out of office. Take a listen to the facts as they played
out and you decide for yourself.
We
will also talk to the owner of a brand new restaurant in Rogers.
It is called Hong Thai. It has fabulous food, great service
and the owner has an interesting story. Listen and then go get some
take-out. They are located on Main Street next to Centercut Meats.
If
you have any questions please fell please feel fee to contact ne
via email at rogerscast@gmail.com
I'm looking forwad to hearing from you. -Mike
