A Sudden Council Resignation, O’Bagel’s Big Debut, and Bobbi Brown’s Big New Book

This week on The Montclair Pod News:

• Councilor-at-Large Carmel Loughman has resigned just over a year into her term. We break down what happened, what it means for the council, and hear directly from Deputy Mayor Susan Shin Andersen on what comes next.
• The Montclair school deficit grows to $18 million. We revisit our conversation with Superintendent Ruth B. Turner and the state’s response to the district’s financial troubles.
• A new bagel shop is here — O’Bagel opened on Bloomfield Avenue to lines around the block. We talk to fans and the second-generation owner about what makes this cult-favorite spot so beloved.
• And we sit down with Montclair’s own Bobbi Brown. The beauty mogul opens up about her new book, Still Bobbi, why she launched another cosmetics company in her 60s, and the local life that has grounded her for more than three decades.

Reserve for Bobbi Brown's book debut in Montclair, Friday 9/19 at 18 Label Studios

Reserve for the live pilot taping of Your Best Life with Junie Moon on October 8.
