Interesting show of Metro Detroit stories today. In the fun category, recently a listener asked why Norris Howard isn't the Baron of Brightmoor, because of the alliteration. He explains why he's the Prince.
There was so much demand for Michigan Central's big concert that it sold out - and so have all the tickets for the tour since we recorded this episode and posted. So I won't include that link.
Then we get into the race for U.S. House, where Adam Hollier didn't get enough valid signatures to make the ballot, dealing a blow to the possibility of black representation for Detroit and nearby areas.
Norris gets into why it matters, but also people need to get their stuff together.

A few years ago, Milwaukee and Brush streets was a quiet corner tucked just south of West Grand Boulevard. Now, between Kiesling, Milwaukee Caffe and a host projects since then, it’s becoming one of Detroit’s interesting intersections - of fun, work, and residential.
Which projects like Chroma Detroit, Freya, Oak and Reel and more nearby, it's becoming a bonafide attraction.
Today we’re talking with the crew behind Kiesling - an approachable cocktail bar in the city’s Milwaukee Junction neighborhood. The building started life as a grocery store in the 1890s, but is now one of the best bars in Detroit.
They have been holding pop-ups and events there, helping foster even more development of the hospitality community in the city while delivering a fun time that you don’t want to miss.
Owner Ashley Davidson, General Manager Jonny Brill and Bar Manager Allison Everitt

Today we're talking about three stories around town with Fletcher Sharpe. First up, news that the old Belle Isle Zoo (technically, the Children's Zoo for a time) will be razed and turned into natural habitat.
Both of us remember going to that place when it was a thing, we share our memories and a movie that was shot there. Second, the Belle Isle slide is returning this summer, says the Michigan DNR. Is riding the Giant Slide at Belle Isle your real "I'm a Detroiter" baptism? (We're of course joking, kinda?)
And finally, with the rise of the WNBA - we're feeling like Detroit is on the sidelines and wax poetic about the Detroit Shock and their legacy here, and how they should be brought back, especially with the rise of the women's game.

The news broke just after we recorded yesterday's show that Detroit City FC intends to build a 14,000 seat stadium in Corktown, near Michigan and 20th streets.
Fletcher Sharpe, Norris Howard and I discuss what we know, what we don't, and then the pair get into a conversation speculating about the future of soccer in Detroit - and bring up the uncomfortable topic for some, MLS in Detroit.
On Monday we'll know more hard details. But for now, enjoy the speculation and would love to know what you think.

Due to news, our schedule gets flipped around. Devon O'Reilly joins in on a Thursday to talk about a couple of stories around town and a couple of places we've been.
Where we've been:
Devon went to check out the Detroit Vinyl Society, a new spot in Detroit's Paradise Valley and has some thoughts.
Jer went to Cafe Noir in Detroit's North End.
News stories:
The city of Detroit gained 1,852 people last year, according to the latest Census estimate. that's the first time since the 1950s that the city has not lost population. It's a bit of an emotional win.
What's next for Fairlane Town Center? A recent article raises questions about current owners and its future.

Devon O'Reilly is in and we talk about a bunch of new restaurants, developments and things around Detroit:

We're keeping it hot on today's episode - even if we're a bit tired after watching Detroit City beat the MLS side, Houston Dynamo, in super duper late overtime.
Today's episode...
00:52 - Why we're so tired today (all hail Saldaña!)
03:52 - The balcony of the Fox bounces as the crowd loses their minds for Gunna. Norris then shares why it's ok to embrace the "uncle" phase of life, grab a lawn chair and hit the Jazzfest.
08:26 - A report says that a plan is being floated to put Wayne County all-in on transit. Many municipalities in the county - including some of the largest like Livonia and Canton - do not have any SMART service, and County Exec Evans says the county needs the service to compete. We discuss.
18:46 - There's drama between one of the challengers for the 13th district - Adam Hollier - and U.S. Congressman Shri Thanadar and a question over signatures. But we use the news to talk about the elephant in the room - that if you're someone who wants to unseat an incumbent (and we're not taking a side in this) - you need to have one challenger in the primary. Not multiple. And there's a big gap in brand knowledge of the challengers.

Today, we’re talking about finding success in Southwest Detroit. The combination restaurant and market La Jalisciense has been making it happen for more than a decade.
Plus, what are some of the top dishes you should try? What are some keys to making it happen? And share some things about Cinco de Mayo you might not have known.
La Jalisciense chef Jose Vargas joins me to talk about it all.
Plus, I learned this after we recorded - you’re going to see another outpost of the popular restaurant coming to Telegraph near Wick Road in Taylor, soon.

The Renaissance Center has been at the center of Detroit's skyline since the 1970s - and it's a building with a fascinating past, present, and future.
With General Motors moving out and going to two floors of the Hudson's Detroit up Woodward Avenue, in the next year GM and Bedrock will be working together to try to find new uses for the 5.5 million square foot complex that today is mostly offices and a hotel.
I felt like we should learn a bit more about the building, and talk about way to not only redevelop it, but connect it to the rest of the city of Detroit. I say "connect" because the initial design was very intentionally separated from the rest of the city.
Through a number of interior redesigns, the RenCen of today is quite different than what was built. And what we see going forward? Might be quite a bit different than today - even on the outside.
To talk about the history, what's going on now and the future? Mark Nickita is our guest.
Mark Nickita, FAIA is an urbanist, architect, retail entrepreneur, developer, educator, an elected municipal leader, and co- founder and President of Archive DS. He has vast experience in the development, enhancement and the regeneration of pedestrian-oriented urban environments including downtowns, neighborhoods, developed corridors, mixed-use areas and underutilized districts of post-industrial cities. Architectural and urban design projects include adaptive-reuse, historic rehabilitation and new infill buildings in a variety of cities, typically on challenging urban sites that require unique design solutions.
I hope you enjoy (and learn something) from this conversation.

Where's the beef? The beef is everywhere, it seems.
This is an episode where Norris Howard and Devon O'Reilly rule the show. And it's an episode about beefs. And proposed changes to marijuana policy - and we talk about the possible impact, and what might actually make more money. .
The rundown:
01:03 - Devon wants to know more about the beef between Kendrick and Drake. Norris obliges.
07:13 - Then we get into the beef between Comcast / Xfinity and Bally Sports, where viewers are losers in a season where the Detroit Tigers aren't bad. Major sports that aren't football are losing momentum, in part, because they're so hard to watch.
15:25 - Is "sports" now just American football? And this is the fastest growing sport for viewership among younger adults.
20:27 - Proposed rule changes around marijuana may impact the overall business, which is huge in volume in Michigan but low on margin. Is the real key to making money consumption lounges?
