  • Making It Rain
  • Episode 99 of The Bobby Couto Show, where host Bobby Couto chats with the charismatic Fall River Councilman Shawn Cadime. Get ready for laughs, life stories, and local insights—it's like hanging out with old friends! (Psst... Episode 100 is just around the corner—stay tuned for something epic!)
  • Meet the Guest Star: Shawn Cadime, a true Fall River lifer, shares his journey from a kid struggling in school to becoming the first in his family to graduate college at Bryant University. Shoutout to his inspiring mom from Madeira, Portugal, who hustled from factories to owning a package store—talk about grit!
  • Surprise Gift Moment: Shawn surprises Bobby with a Ted Lasso Funko Pop! Why? Because Bobby embodies those Lasso vibes: leadership, teamwork, and personal growth.
  • School Days Drama: From barely scraping by at St. Peter and Paul to thriving at Bishop Stang (thanks to teacher Rob Correa's tough love), Shawn flips the script on education. His daughter's now rocking Stang too—full circle family win!
  • Political Origin Story: Pushed by cousin Wayne Rego, 22-year-old introvert Shawn runs for school committee—loses big in 2004 but bounces back to win in 2006. Overcomes social awkwardness (he's still a corner-lurker at heart) to serve from 2006-2010. Inspiring reminder: Even introverts can conquer politics!
  • Boss Mode Unlocked: At 29, Shawn becomes City Administrator under Mayor Will Flanagan—no experience needed? He dives into managing everything from public works to police, emphasizing people-first leadership and ditching wasteful habits. Ted Lasso vibes strike again!
  • Hot Takes on Education & AI: Why can't public schools match private ones? Parental buy-in is key! They lament kids ditching cursive for ChatGPT—Shawn warns: Use AI as a tool, not a crutch, or risk brain burnout. Fun fact: Emails went from messy to masterpiece overnight—AI magic or overkill?
  • Standing Up for What's Right: Shawn goes rogue to call out Superintendent Matthew Malone's bullying and harassment—backed by allies like Cliff Ponte. It's all about protecting people; accountability is his superpower!
  • Politics Unfiltered: Ditch the party drama—local politics should be non-partisan! They roast extremism, low voter turnout (only 7%?!), and call for tech-savvy young leaders. Shawn's dream: A pro city manager to cut the BS and focus on real progress.
  • City Glow-Up Ideas: Fall River's finances? Audits happen yearly—no shady stuff! Dream big on Route 79: Restaurants, mixed-use spots for that Boston waterfront feel. But watch for gentrification—revive the Flint, North End, and South End too! Teaser: That old Shell site could be an entertainment hotspot if cleaned up.
  • Tech Talk with Heart: AI boosts efficiency (hello, quick emails!), but beware Zoom fatigue and overreliance. Shawn's tip: Fact-check everything—it's McDonald's for your brain, tasty but not nutritious!
  • Proud Moments & Chill Vibes: Shawn's biggest win? Giving back to the city that shaped him—80s/90s street games, neighborhood vibes, and all. Now a helicopter dad, he craves naps and home time. No mayor dreams here—he loves the behind-the-scenes grind!
  • Dynamic Duo Alert: Shawn and Cliff Ponte: Batman and Robin (Shawn's Batman, obvs—great hair wins!). Shares tough-love mentoring tales from Ponte's high school activist days. Ponte's mayor potential? Sky-high!
  • Heroic Fire Response: Props to Mayor Coogan and Chief Bacon for handling the Gabriel House tragedy with grace—mental health check-ins included. Quick critics? Let's learn and support instead!
  • Wrapping with Gratitude: Shawn thanks voters and eyes re-election if the love's there. Bobby's buzzing with community passion—join the convo! Support sponsor Pinnacle Painting (10% off with our shoutout). All roads lead here—catch you in Episode 100 for the big reveal! 🚀
