- On Cool Cleveland I always enjoy reading Cool Cleveland. Honestly, not as much for the events as for the insights into the goings on in town. The political season makes for good hunting, I know, but I really like the updated format and video interviews you are doing. I’ve had to extend my time allocation for Cool Cleveland to allow for watching them. Keep up the good work.
