In this episode of The Right Side of the Rivers, host Todd McCollum and special co-host Eileen Cunningham welcome Beaver County Sheriff Tony Guy, Republican candidate for Pennsylvania’s 17th Congressional District. Tony shares his journey from growing up in Aliquippa and serving 25 years with the Pennsylvania State Police to leading the Beaver County Sheriff’s Office and now seeking to represent Western Pennsylvania in Congress. He discusses the values that shaped his career, the lessons learned from law enforcement, and why he believes common-sense leadership is needed in Washington.

The conversation explores some of the most pressing issues facing the region, including public safety, juvenile crime, law enforcement staffing shortages, accountability in the justice system, and the challenges facing Pittsburgh’s downtown neighborhoods. Tony also discusses economic development, the future of manufacturing, the impact of the U.S. Steel–Nippon Steel partnership, and the importance of creating opportunities that allow families to build successful futures in Western Pennsylvania. The episode closes with a discussion of Pittsburgh sports, community pride, and Tony’s vision for bringing practical problem-solving and public service experience to Congress.
