The reality is we don't talk about abortion in polite conversation. So we will today, so we can learn things. If you're of a certain age, you may know someone who's had an abortion or needed care at some point. But you don't know it. It's an emotional, private thing. But because of that, a lot of people don't know the medical reasons why safe access to these services is important. So the landmark Roe v. Wade reversal has huge impacts locally here on Michigan and Metro Detroit. Especially in wake of Beaumont's quick adopting of the court-blocked 1931 law in Michigan (and quick reversal) - it's a reminder this situation is quickly changing. Some of the topics we get into: - Dangerous ectopic pregnancies - Miscarriages for various reasons and the aftermath - The fuzzy lines these decisions and laws leave for doctors and care providers - The shaky future of IVF in a post-Roe world and under a strict Michigan law - Actual data about who has abortions and why - The abdication of responsibility when a health system makes a snap decision, leaving its doctors without guidance - The inequity this would create as the rich, wealthy and powerful will still continue to have access to safe abortions - The importance of talking with your doctor and making sure they share your values Our guide is Dr. Paul Thomas from Plum Health Direct Primary Care. Being that he's an independent primary care physician, he can talk about this issue with clarity — without having to run all the answers through a PR department or worry if he's going to be cut off by a health system. More: https://www.plumhealthdpc.com/ A couple notes about this episode: 1) This just starts to scratch the surface. There's a lot more out there to talk about, and no one episode could encapsulate everything. 2) This is understandably triggering content for some people. I truly get why you wouldn't listen. Honestly, some of it because of my life experience was difficult to produce. 3) Also, some parents may not feel ok having their children listen to this, depending on their development or age level. I want to give the heads up on that. Daily Detroit's work is funded in large part by our members.

Literally. We're reeling here after what happened last night, but committed to keep things going. Plus, we talk about a recent list of Dearborn places to eat that Devon liked a lot - but had a few more suggestions to throw on. Read their list: https://detroit.eater.com/maps/best-restaurants-dearborn Here's a link we mentioned in the show to buy Gabby dog treats for saving the day and waking everyone up; and supporting the show. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dailydetroit Editor's note: This episode was recorded before the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v Wade. Normally, we'd cover that and the local implications; but considering the fire damage we still need to handle, we will have to dig deeper into it and related topics next week.

Robin Runyan from Urbanize Detroit is in the studio, and we're talking about a ton of projects around town. Turkey Stearnes Field at Hamtramck Stadium was dedicated, Robin went. Livonia residents say no to apartments because they fear they'd bring the poors (and others) $38 million in credits is coming to Detroit to build low income units; including converting old St. Michaels catholic school on the city's east side to housing We discuss the ongoing Hudson's saga and developers going back to the well for more incentive money; and why politicians across America almost never say no to stadiums or other projects. Robin's thoughts on the new East Warren streetscape The Gateway Center at Michigan and Washington Boulevard in Detroit will be demo'd - it's actually an Albert Kahn with an ugly duckling facade from the 70s. It was the Finsterwald building. The former Studebaker Service and Sales building is becoming 162 apartments in Milwaukee Junction And, the old Ford home in Boston Edison is for sale. A truly unique property. Keeping it up was a labor of love for a couple, here's the listing: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/140-Edison-St-Detroit-MI-48202/88587945_zpid/ Drink of the show: Finnish Long Drink Support the show by: 1) Telling a friend to listen! 2) If we bring joy to your day or you find us valuable, buy us a coffee as a one-time thing: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dailydetroit 3) Think about becoming a monthly member.

Brad Williams from the Detroit Regional Chamber joins us to talk about a number of policy and community issues facing Metro Detroit this year — the progress made; and where work still needs to be done. Recorded at the Mackinac Policy Conference, this episode is brought to you by our supporter Jerry Mangona.

Detroit City FC showed well on a national audience of ESPN this weekend. And there's a lot to be proud of with the season so far. But there's also a lot to talk about. Antoine Hoppenot is stepping up in big ways and evolving as a player to fit the needs of Le Rouge. We get into the player piece or pieces needed to go from where we're at - a solid mid-tier that makes the playoffs - to competing for hardware, in true DCFC fashion. We also preview Memphis 901 FC match on the road this Saturday and what to look forward to as well as some keys to the match.

One of the most important assets we have in Metro Detroit is our water. From drinking it to our access to it, it's a vital part of what makes our region an attractive place to live. So in a wide-ranging conversation with Macomb County Public Works Commissioner Candice Miller, some of the topics we touch on: - Why we should invest to rebuild our antiquated sewer systems for the future - Eliminating combined sewer overflows to protect the Great Lakes and reduce flooding - Dealing with a contentious issue of unpaid bills in Highland Park - Why she decided to focus back on local, practical things in Michigan instead of Washington - A program to collect trash from our drains and waterways before it gets into the Great Lakes

On today's show, Shianne airs some early festivus grievances about inflation and gas prices; but we focus on solutions - including tips to save money on gas and on groceries. Plus, Bargain Block is back Wednesday night. A huge hit for HGTV with 20 million viewers, it showcases Detroit in a way that people can actually afford. Then to houses most can't - the Ransom Gillis House, redone by another HGTV star in Nicole Curtis - part of it as a condo is up for sale for nearly $2 million. Brush Park is again Detroit's Millionaire's Row. Plus, Shianne is raising awareness for blood donation as her kid is celebrating his first birthday after a very rough ride.

Next Le Rouge comes back to Keyworth to play Sacramento Republic FC in a stretch that matters for playoff positioning.

Dwight Ferrell is the new-ish head of SMART, the Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation that runs transit services in Detroit's suburbs. Transit is an issue that's been difficult for southeast Michigan to solve. Between political differences, many cities with sprawled-out low population densities, large distances between job centers and differing priorities of what transit should do where the auto industry has been paramount; it's been hard to make progress. And the lack of it has been hurting our competitiveness for businesses, keeping talented people, and more. So what do we do to make change? Try something a bit different. Focus on being a mobility provider. That different solutions are going to be needed in different situations and places. So tune into this interesting conversation with the new General Manager. No, we don't get into which routes where (yet); but more of an idea of what turning from being just a bus service to a mobility service could look like.

Steamships, railroads, prohibition, an amazingly large wood frame hotel, an island without cars... there's just so much to talk about. Bob Tagatz, historian for the Grand Hotel joins me to talk about all of it.

News today came that Ford's making some big investments in Michigan and Metro Detroit. With Glenn Stevens of MICHAuto, we talk about not just that news, but the overall picture of mobility, electric vehicles, and automotive in 2022. We get into the keys Michigan is going to need to compete and win the race high tech talent and a lot more. If you want to support Daily Detroit financially...

Taken all too young due to colon cancer, he made an impact. And we chat with Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson about a new report on Title IX, the impact on making sure women in sports is invested in not just education but on the professional level, including the possibility of a women's team for DCFC - including the facilities to support it.

Joining me - filmmaker and director Michael B. Chait. He's from the area and has a new feature film shot in large part right here in Michigan and Metro Detroit. There's a new film, Wolf Hound, due out June 3rd. It's an action-packed couple of hours, featuring James Maslow, Trever Donovan and others. Set in German-occupied France in 1944, It's inspired by the real-life German special operations unit KG 200 that shot down, repaired, and flew Allied aircraft as Trojan horses. I talk with Chait about the movie, making movies in Michigan, and a little local cinema trivia!

Detroit City FC beat Atlanta United 2 3-1 over the weekend. Fletcher has the highlights and something he's watching for. As the team embraces a much-needed bye week, we answer your listener questions about the club this year. What position would an upgrade best help the men's team for the 2nd half? If Fletcher Sharpe was GM, do you have any specific players you'd want us to go get? How are we going to hold on to Trevor James, Rhys, and some of the other top players in the off-season? Devin Amoo-Mensah has been a very quiet MVP for this team. Who has surprised you on the team so far this year? With such a small bench, where do we end up in the standings if we make no signings? The last MLS question will we answer for a long time, though a few asked a version, and we're keeping it to just one question: We're doing great in USL, why aren't we pushing harder for MLS? (Go talk to long timers / SG for the important culture stuff, but there's a lot of soccer reasons, too) What is keeping the attendance at the women's game so much lower than the men's? What can the team do to improve women's matches attendance?

A judge has interceded in the debate on Auburn Hills leaving SMART for their own service, keeping them in service for now. But an election is looming; and there's an underlying issue with transit in metro Detroit. IT's population density and distance, as the sprawled region in many places is below the 3,000 people per square mile some studies say is needed to support regular bus service. This applies to other services, too. We discuss. 3,000 per square mile supports bus service: https://kinder.rice.edu/2018/11/13/excerpt-many-cities-have-transit-how-many-have-good-transit (I didn't mention on the show, but I think I'm going to make a map of the actual population densities around here. It'll be surprising, I think). Plus, the St. Joan of Arc fair isn't bringing back rides, as the dollars don't make sense for the fundraiser. There are others following suit. Is this a trend, with increasing costs making the juice not worth the squeeze? The Crash Detroit street band festival is done. We share some memories, and hope some more things pop up. And, local chain pizza joints will soon be carrying "Pepsi-roni," made by infusing the pepperoni with sugar free Pepsi Zero. Yay or nay?

The reality is there's a lot of inequity in our American system. It's been there since our founding. Sure, improvements have been made, but we're nowhere near there yet. And you can see it in our region, too. Short of a massive federal program to truly begin to level out the metaphorical playing field on a number of levels for African Americans and other groups, to help get wealth into communities, start businesses, and more — the work has to be done where it can. One of those areas is with access to loans. Nimaj Driscoll - a Detroit Native with CDC Small Business Finance, a nonprofit that's more flexible than a bank - joins me today to talk about a new program that doesn't involve traditional credit scoring to get Black entrepreneurs access to what they need to compete. And they're already at work in the community.

Long time listeners might remember the words split property taxes. The idea being - the city of Detroit's tax burden is only second only to New York City. But, I don't know if you've looked around. We don't have the household incomes, the commerce, or the number of people to support that. We were closer to that many decades ago. But no more. So the idea is to change the code to make it so land speculators and others would get punished, and those who are taking care of and improving their land get rewarded. Now that the city of Detroit has a better handle of its finances and we're not immediately after bankruptcy, maybe it's time for the city leaders to look to the future. What could we do different to truly become more resident-friendly and more competitive for businesses of all sizes? What if we could change the system so there were fewer foreclosures and more people stay in their homes? When we talked about this last, it was more theoretical. Now, there's a new report by the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and commissioned by some local big hitters in Invest Detroit and the Kresge Foundation. That, if you're paying attention, is major local interest in the topic. Nick Allen, an author of the report, joins us to discuss it.

If you are a long time listeners of the show, you know that the far east side of Detroit by the riverfront is near and dear to my heart. Recently, they've been dealing with flooding and other issues that are a harbinger of what's to come. See, our region has some major infrastructure issues to handle - and there's some big impacts on what will happen going forward if we don't address them now. Josh Elling is the CEO of Jefferson East, a multi-service neighborhood service organization whose area contains much of Detroit's riverfront east of downtown and Jefferson Chalmers. I enjoy having him on the show because we get into the details of what's happening on the ground. How we need to deal with water. Changes that may be needed in Detroit's building code to handle a wetter future. A needed seawall. How projects have been impacted. How this all works regionally because the water issue isn't just in one area, but something that impacts all of Metro Detroit. How, if we work together, there can be a lot of hope. So sure, if you live in the immediate area you'll want to listen. But if you care about communities in southeast Michigan, you'll want to listen, too.

Lots of Detroit City FC news. Fletcher Sharpe talks about the news breaking before we record the show about Karl Ouimette being loaned to DCFC from Indy Eleven. He has quite the history, and you won't want to miss it. Plus, are some pundits covering the USL Championship moving the goalposts on the club? Fletcher says yes. That there's still a long way to go and a lot to learn, but there's no doubt Le Rouge is showing they belong and are doing well. Tulsa is next on the schedule on the road, so Fletcher previews that. And, we the women's season kicks off this Saturday and we'd be remiss if we didn't mention it and give you some names to watch this year.

Big show today, wrapping up DCFC's tired win against Hartford and previewing their upcoming match against New York Red Bulls II.

Tuesday was a night for the history books, and a new chapter was written for a legendary club, Detroit City FC. Against most odds, DCFC bested the Columbus Crew, an MLS squad, 2-1 in the U.S. Open Cup. Fletcher Sharpe is in the studio and we do an in-depth breakdown of what went right, what went wrong, and what this means going forward. Of course, we do Detroit City FC coverage every Monday but this is a special episode because, well, this is a big deal. Usually, we do shows each weekday but this week we're only doing three because we have team members down. Next we'll be on air on Friday.

Today, let's go to the near east side. Joseph Campau and East Jefferson to be exact- well, it's a little tucked in as it's off the new Dennis Archer Greenway. There, you'll find what they're calling the flagship store of Breadless, a fast-casual sandwich shop without the bread. The grand opening was today and we have the details.
