I've seen a couple different historical writings by Sean Posey and feel that what he writes to be very interesting and most likely honest.

I've never heard of Roslyn Torella and Mia Allonby so I did a little googling.

It looks like Roslyn Torella, similar to Mr. Posey, has also written about local history possibly more centered on Lowellville, but that's OK.

The co-host, Mia Allonby is an "artist, sometime writer and library professional from the United Kingdom". I'm not sure what his insight is regarding the history of our area.

Based on a couple images google provided (one with his face half shaved) I see that he believes he's a woman

As long as he doesn't change tomorrow's topic into his "life history" he can do whatever he wants.
