Episode 1 - The Right Turn Podcast: Dialogue in Our City with the Gov serves as host Robert Zelle’s mission statement and personal introduction. Zelle, a 70-year-old conservative Christian, aims to initiate vital dialogue and find solutions for distressed communities, focusing heavily on Saginaw and his hometown of Bridgeport, Michigan. The podcast is founded on his beliefs in God, family, and country, and seeks to be resourceful, entertaining, and solution-driven. Key topics he introduces and commits to addressing are crime reduction, education reform, entrepreneurship, and standing on the right.

He shares his personal journey—including his sports background, family inspiration (especially his 12 grandchildren), and his vision for creating a community called Hope Port in Bridgeport to generate livelihoods.

He stresses the importance of turning away from methods that fail, comparing the need for new strategies to a trapped fly needing to fly in the opposite direction where the door is open.
