After 44 years of local reporting, there’s not a person who knows Chattanooga’s story better than Dave Flessner, which is exactly why we wanted to have him as our guest for the 100th episode of the podcast.

In this episode, Dave shares the unconventional path that led him to be a journalist, the history of the Times Free Press, and some of the hardest stories he’s had to cover during his career.

Dave Flessner recently retired as the Business Editor of the Chattanooga Times Free Press. You can read his articles on the TFP website and you can connect with him on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/david-flessner-39243413).
