Stirring Up Skyline & Cincinnati Stories

Molly Wellman & Abbey Cummins

In this episode of Cincy 5 o’Clock Tales, hosts Molly Wellmann and Abbey Cummins, the owner of Everything Cincinnati, sit down with Dick Williams, the CEO of Skyline Chili, for a lively conversation at The Roosevelt Room in Norwood, located at 3825 Edwards Road, Suite 107. Together, they dive into the flavors, traditions, and memories that make Cincinnati unique — from the unmistakable comfort of Skyline’s chili to the deep-rooted pride of the Cincinnati Reds.

Williams shares his journey from investment banking to his long tenure with the Reds, where he served as General Manager and later President of Baseball Operations, before stepping into his leadership role at Skyline. His background reflects a blend of business insight, hometown loyalty, and a passion for Cincinnati’s growth.

Throughout the conversation, the trio explores how both Skyline and the city itself have evolved, how tradition continues to shape the community, and how Cincinnati’s culture blends the old with the new. The atmosphere of The Roosevelt Room adds warmth and character, making the episode feel like an authentic Cincinnati hangout filled with stories, history, and heart.
