Craig's guest is former Michigan Legislator and Detroit Mayoral Candidate Coleman Young II.  They discuss everything from blight to gerrymandering, to housing and inclusion.  

WDIV's Steve Garagiola joins Craig to discuss the newest season of their podcast "Shattered".  Season four focuses on the life, legacy, and the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa.  His disappearance in 1975 has captured our attention for decades...and now includes a new feature film.  But Hoffa's story is so much more than just his disappearance.  

Craig is joined by regular Monday football friend Pat Batcheller of WDET to discuss the sad state of affairs for the Wolverine, Lions and Spartans...but also to talk about the bit of good news that does exist for our gridiron heroes.  

Craig is joined by George Hunter, longtime Detroit News crime reporter, about his new podcast "Sins of Detroit."  Season one focuses on people who were wrongfully convicted in Detroit, and explores the roots on why it happens more often than we'd like.  

Craig is joined by Nancy Derringer and Allan Lengel of Deadline Detroit, along with defense attorney Steve Fishman to break down the news of the week.  Not surprisingly, the impeachment proceedings are front and center.  Other topics include problems at the UAW, partisan sniping in Lansing, and recreational pot in Michigan.

Craig is joined by Photographer and storyteller Kenny Karpov to discuss his upcoming exhibition "Despite it All We Never Learn".  The book and photo / audio exhibit is an in depth look at his four years spent working with NGOs that help asylum seekers as they try to cross the Mediterranean Sea.  Fascinating stuff.  

Craig is joined by Ned Staebler, President and CEO of Techtown, also VP of Economic Development for Wayne State University to talk about the latest news at WSU.  With all of the attention focused on the Board of Governors, a lot of really good news is going overlooked.  In part two of the show, WDET's Pat Batcheller and Craig discuss the Lions latest loss...and the big win for the Wolverines over the Spartans.

Craig is joined by Emily Schaller of the Rock CF Foundation to discuss the news of a BIG breakthrough on treatments for those with Cystic Fibrosis.  The news is indeed a game changer, but it is not a cure.  The two discuss the role of the Rock CF Foundation, and the advocacy work that still needs to be done.  

Craig is joined by regular sports contributor Pat Batcheller of WDET to discuss the latest soul-crushing loss by our beloved Detroit Lions.  Also, a little bit of college football gets tossed around for fun.

Craig travels to TechTown Detroit to discuss the issue of talent.  Amazon says we don't have enough.  UofM and Dan Gilbert want to expand to Detroit to help grow the talent pipeline.  That said, Ned Staebler, CEO of TechTown says maybe we aren't looking close enough at the talent that is already here.  

Craig is joined by noted attorney Steve Fishman to talk about the big stories in the news this week...which again was dominated by the impeachment hearings taking place in Washington.  They also touch on deleted emails, bad PR for a Michigan brewery, bad comments made by politicians, and whether the Pistons may be halfway decent this year.
