Lake Adventures & Roller Coasters with Stevie Lucas

In this episode of Let's Talk About It, host Dora Sherry broadcasts live from Indian Lake alongside a special co-host: her great-great-nephew, Steven "Stevie" Lucas. Dora opens the show sharing her excitement about having Stevie at the lake for his first trip, where he's taken on new experiences like riding and driving a pontoon boat, paddleboarding, and catching his first big catfish.

The episode covers a wide mix of lighthearted stories, summer adventures, and upcoming milestones:

• Guest/Co-Host: Steven "Stevie" Lucas (Dora Sherry's great-great-nephew)

• The Surprise Phone: Stevie shares how his stepmom secretly tucked a new phone into his bag before the trip. Dora uses this to touch on teaching kids responsibility and lake safety—warning Stevie not to keep his phone in his life jacket while swimming.

• Overcoming Lake Fears: Stevie talks about initial fears of floating away in the lake until family friend Teresa stepped in to help him get comfortable. Teresa also plans to give Stevie swimming lessons at a local pool.

• Dora's Eye Injury: Dora explains her sunglasses, sharing that she injured her eye in an umbrella bungee cord accident over the weekend, though she credits Stevie with keeping her spirits high.

• Thill Rides at Kings Island: Stevie recounts his favorite summer highlight—riding the Banshee roller coaster at Kings Island, where he admits he briefly blacked out from the intensity, as well as his thoughts on other coasters like The Beast.

• School & Future Goals: Entering the 6th grade, Stevie shares his plan to join the school's community club and help out in gym class. When Dora asks about his future, Stevie notes his parents say he’d make a great lawyer because he loves to debate.
