Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast covers a variety of local themes including politics, school systems, community events, and infrastructure challenges. Episodes feature discussions on controversies like speed camera enforcement, community impacts of overdevelopment, and water quality issues, providing listeners with in-depth explorations of relevant topics.

The Cumberland Unfiltered™ Podcast is a long-form, conversational show centered on people, stories, and the forces that shape how we live, work, and think.
Recorded in an independent studio setting, the podcast features unstructured conversations with public figures, journalists, veterans, business owners, artists, and everyday people with something meaningful to say. Some episodes explore public issues and cultural shifts; others focus on personal experiences, creative work, or moments that rarely fit into traditional media formats.
Cumberland Unfiltered™ prioritizes honesty over performance, depth over soundbites, and conversation over confrontation—creating space for ideas, disagreement, and storytelling to unfold naturally.
New episodes are released biweekly.
Jamie Gass, Director of Pioneer Education at the Pioneer Institute, draws on decades of experience in education policy and public administration to discuss how standards drift, accountability weakens, and systems redefine success instead of confronting failure. The episode explores how these changes shape classroom realities and affect students and families over the long term.
