The Real Hernando: Recent Episodes
Derrick Michaud
Welcome to The Real Hernando, brought to you by Shelby Row Productions. The Real Hernando is a podcast created to highlight our amazing local community here in Hernando, Mississippi, and in particular, the local business owners of Hernando.
The Real Hernando host welcomes local podcasters Chad Wicker (Hernando Alderman, Ward 4) and Brian Couch (Burch Realty) from the new Roundabout Roundup podcast, which recaps Hernando Board of Aldermen meetings in short episodes so residents don’t have to watch lengthy sessions. They discuss the show’s goals of transparency, humor, and soliciting verified anonymous listener questions, including recent topics like utility fund concerns and Riverside Park facility change orders. The conversation covers city decisions such as denying a new liquor store under updated state law criteria, frustrations with toxic social media and bots, and Hernando growth perspectives. They also dive into roundabouts—where they work, driving education, and upcoming projects like a roundabout at Green Tea and Highway 51—plus local history, businesses, and community connections.

Host Derrick welcomes Dr. Danton Dye and Lauren McLendon to explain HYPE (Hernando Young Professionals and Entrepreneurs) and its relationship to the Hernando Main Street Chamber of Commerce. They describe HYPE’s purpose of connecting young professionals and entrepreneurs with mentors, building a cycle of giving back, and strengthening the community. The guests outline HYPE’s origins, current structure, and board roles, and discuss using the “Working Genius” WIDGET framework to place people in the right seats for idea-to-execution work. They recap recent and upcoming outreach through events like Sunset on the Square and the Hernando Fourth of July celebration, highlight Sharpening the Saw programming (personal branding and wealth management sessions), and preview a collaboration with The Real Hernando to feature young professionals’ stories in a podcast interview format.

Host Derrick welcomes Brock and Amber Williams to the show to discuss their electrical contracting business, Electrical Repair and Installation, and their nonprofit ministry, Life House. Brock shares how he started the company in 2014 after earning his master’s electrical license, grew from solo service work into residential and commercial crews, and expanded into major accounts and travel work, including Chick-fil-A locations across multiple states; the business also specializes in remodels, custom new construction, service work, and standby generator installation (about half their work). Amber explains joining the business in 2022 to handle administration, scheduling, insurance, and generator permitting, later leaving her 21-year hairstyling career to focus on the business and Life House. They describe Life House (founded in 2022) as a Christ-centered maternity home for displaced pregnant women, outlining intake steps, rules, screenings, church involvement, resources offered, and a success story of a mother who found stability after receiving support.

Host Derrick welcomes Neil Colley, founder of the Fancy Nancy Foundation and host of the Local Yokel's podcast, to spotlight how the foundation—created in honor of Neil’s mother, Nancy Colley—supports DeSoto County nonprofits through fundraising initiatives like vehicle raffles. Neil discusses the current $20-per-ticket raffle of a customized 2013 Jeep Rubicon raising money for House of Grace, a domestic violence shelter serving the region, with discounts for multi-ticket bundles and a drawing planned after 5,000 tickets sell, followed by a local giveaway event. He shares how his work grew from supporting Feed My Lambs and how podcasting helps connect organizations, resources, and community leaders, including examples of real connections made through show clips.

The Real Hernando podcast, presented by Thrive Entertainment and produced by SRP Studios Podcasting, spotlights Angela Kidd of Angela Kidd Insurance, specializing in Medicare, under-65 health insurance/healthcare.gov plans, and life insurance. Angela discusses how her Southaven brick-and-mortar office (8830 Center Street, Suite 1) has helped clients—especially seniors—by providing trusted, in-person guidance, while still offering phone and home visits. She explains annual enrollment timelines (Medicare Oct 15–Dec 7; marketplace Nov 1–Dec 15), warns about carrier changes like Cigna leaving the marketplace in 2027, and describes how income updates can prevent subsidy payback at tax time. Angela shares stories of correcting Medicare Advantage network mistakes, navigating claims, avoiding Medicare enrollment penalties, and offering final expense and supplemental protections for costs insurance doesn’t cover.

Host Derrick welcomes Garvin Keen, a LegalShield associate (DreamScape Consulting), to spotlight how LegalShield provides affordable legal support and IDShield identity protection through a monthly membership that connects members to a dedicated law firm (William Anderson & Farrah for Mississippi and Alabama) with attorney callbacks typically within four hours. Garvin shares his personal motivation for helping people understand and use their rights, contrasts LegalShield with relying on friends or online searches, and explains IDShield features including private investigators who can assume power of attorney to resolve identity issues, plus privacy and reputation guidance. The conversation also covers Garvin’s DeSoto County history as a Horn Lake band director (1990–2005), local band culture and growth, Amro Music, reunions, and how DeSoto County has changed over the past two decades.

He explains their process from discovery call through pre-construction, common misconceptions like timelines, and growing demand for renovations as homeowners use equity for upgrades. Brandon also shares homebuilding trends such as outdoor living spaces and safe rooms, the importance of builder credentials, and introduces his separate construction management software Badger PMD, including plans to integrate AI for design mockups and estimating.

The Real Hernando podcast returns after a long pause caused by personal challenges in 2025, including a leg injury from a cannonball at Coach Camp’s pool, the end of Wesley Meadows’ three-year presenting sponsorship, and a studio transition from Big Note Music Lessons to a new location at 2375 Memphis Street behind Fratello’s near the square. The host, Derrick, explains the show’s origins with Robert Carter and how the podcast, launched in February 2022, helped introduce his business to the community while keeping content positive and nonpolitical. With no current sponsors, the format is free to evolve as he rebuilds momentum, banks new interviews, and expands to feature businesses, nonprofits, and community leaders across the area, starting next with Denise McElhaney of Denise’s Happy Hounds. Coach Camp is reintroduced as a retired Memphis firefighter/paramedic, EMS professor at Southwest Tennessee Community College, podcaster, and growing motivational speaker, and they also promote their show Cannonballing Life.

If you have a sweet tooth, then City Hall Cheesecake is sure to delight with over 100 different cheesecake flavors, Double Doozie Cookies, parfaits, cheesecake cupcakes, coffee drinks, and more!
But there’s a lot more to City Hall Cheesecake than just a bakery. As Kim Daly explains, “We are a ministry first and a business second.”
About four years ago, Kim and Vance Daly bought City Hall Cheesecake. But with no business or restaurant experience, Kim Daly never imagined they would own a bakery business.
In fact, the inspiration to buy the bakery stemmed from the homeless ministry they run, Love Works 25:40.
This is truly a heartwarming and inspiring story you won’t want to miss. So be sure to join me in this episode to learn more about City Hall Cheesecake and Kim and Vance Daly’s story.
