Great to see you at the studio! Good conversation on the important work you’re doing.
Joined @TheDailyDetroit this week to talk about Elon’s Twitter, the origins of the Haitian migrant story, manipulated media and the stakes of knowing what’s real and what’s not this election podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Is 2024 a turning point for transit in Metro Detroit? From a new legislative caucus to pilot programs, there’s definite progress. But the ghosts of leaders that represented our divisions still haunt us through policy. overcast.fm/ IvzZNoaC8

Good to get many of us in studio, together, at the same time, for the first time in a long time. Ep drops tomorrow on the Michigan Central hotel; Olga’s nostalgia; and the impact of the “introvert economy” (example: most popular dinner reservations have moved way earlier).

This is a special moment for this team and this city. We can now say it’s not the Same Old Lions. Division title, playoff win. It hits us long time fans in the feels.
Picked the Lions to win (27-22 on the last sports episode of @TheDailyDetroit) and I still dont believe it

The roads are really awful. It’s so much it’s overwhelming the windshield wipers. Had to pull over in Ferndale. Do not go out, Metro Detroit and get caught in this like me. It is in fact the bad snow storm.

So anyone giving an over/under on how many fantasy People Mover maps will be made and shared around by the end of the month? And will we, too, create a fantasy map and spend a whole episode debating new possible stations? 😂

Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan: “We are going to look at modifying the People Mover. A potential reconfiguration to make a downtown neighborhood where you can live, work and play is something we’ll take a look at.”

“Let’s get serious about how we pay for it. No city with serious public transit does it this way (through property taxes) … Creating World class public transit is our moonshot.” -Michael Griffie, AECOM #DPC24

“The data is staggering… in almost every category. It was eye opening for me,” says Linda Apsey, head of ITC Holdings about what the state is facing. “They’re deep deep issues … we have to start by defining the problem.” #DPC24

(This is what I’m talking about.. stuff that’s just “the air we breathe” for us a younger cohort on social media is new news to most in Michigan). I can’t tell you how square one this conversation is for some, despite the TweeterThreadiFaceTikkerverse. #DPC24

“Michigan’s house is on fire” says Sandy Baruah of the @DetroitChamber as we are a poorer, older state, among other issues. Big swings in demographics in a relatively short period of time. #DPC24
