Life on the Streets of Hammond Featuring Mayor Thomas McDermott Jr.

“It’s friggin’ hot in here,” Mayor McDermott says while leaning over Ideas in Motion Founder, Chris Mahlmann, to flip on the car air conditioning. He pauses and looks to Mahlmann concerned, “I can say friggin’ right?” The exchange gave an indication on the candid and light-hearted style of interview in a new series Ideas in Motion Media has launched called "Life on the Streets," featuring Northwest Indiana Leaders, set in a car as they travel through the communities in which they serve. Hammond Mayor Thomas McDermott was the first featured and both Mahlmann and McDermott realized how to take advantage of the setting they were in. http://www.nwindianalife.com/community/government-community-resources/65632-life-on-the-streets-of-hammond-featuring-mayor-thomas-mcdermott-jr 0:00 Intro 0:13 Exploring Hammond's Famous Bike Path 0:59 Hammond Marina and the Impact of Mayor Thomas McDermott, Sr. 3:57 McDermott's Life in the Political Spotlight & Marissa McDermott's venture into politics 6:28 McDermott on Neighboring Politics with other Mayors 8:03 Seeing Lost Marsh Golf Club and the history behind the club 8:51 Wolf Lake Pavillion's Impact in Hammond 10:53 McDermott shares Hammond's new bike path 12:05 Festival of the Lakes and McDermott's secret rock star side.
