Episode 6: Henderson County, Hospitality House, and Coach Carter

In this episode, we sit down with Todd Carter—Mayor Pro Tem of Boone, Dalton’s right-hand man, and Chief Development Director at Hospitality House of WNC—for a wide-ranging conversation rooted in community and impact.

Todd shares his journey from Henderson County to becoming a key figure in Boone’s local leadership, along with an inside look at the work Hospitality House is doing across Western North Carolina. We also dive into the story behind the iconic “Coach Carter” political ad, what it represents, and how moments like that shape local narratives.

Huge thanks to Todd for sitting down with us this week! We hope y’all enjoy the episode.
