Norris Howard is in the co-host chair, and we get into some interesting topics on the podcast around Metro Detroit.

The rundown:

01:05 – There are new districts for the Michigan State Legislature in Metro Detroit, focused on the city of Detroit and nearby suburbs. This happened after a legal challenge that black voters weren’t properly represented. Norris Howard, who has a political education and reporting background – as well as a native born Detroiter – discusses his thoughts and the shifting of Metro Detroit’s demographics. Basically, you need to check your situation because it’s very likely your district changed.

14:02 – A recent Detroit Free Press article says that there’s too much commercialization in a Tigers home run celebration that features the staff from the Little Caesars guy and three pizzas. Has the ship sailed?
