Show Notes

Last year, the City of Decatur and Decatur Downtown Development Authority launched The Decatur Retail Incubator Program (The D.R.I.P.). Shirley Baylis, the Downtown Program Manager for the City of Decatur who oversees The DRIP, and Buzz Busbee, a recent program participant and the owner and creative director of the lifestyle apparel brand YEAHBUZZY, join “Closer Look” to provide an update on the program.

In wake of another mass shooting, this time in Tulsa, we revisit Rose’s conversation with public health researcher and former president and CEO of the Task Force for Global Health Mark Rosenberg. The veteran physician discusses how gun violence is a public health issue and the importance of using research to combat it.
