Greetings from Detroit, which today looks like a snowglobe-turned-dismal outdoor slushie amid a brief thaw. On today’s show, we discuss a new report from the Michigan State University College of Education that finds tht funding for Michigan’s public schools has dropped more severely than in any other state over the past quarter-century. We’re now dead last among states for total education revenue growth. The report deliberately looks at the effects of Proposal A, the 1994 state law that drastically changed public education funding in Michigan. It shifted funding from local property taxes to state property taxes, limiting the ability of local residents to determine funding levels for their own local schools. We had an in-depth interview last year about Michigan’s K-12 woes with Ron French of Bridge magazine. You can listen to it here. Elsewhere, we discuss a new initiative to redesign the streets around the Detroit Institute of Arts. The public is invited to come to the DIA and provide their feedback on plans offered by three different firms. Also covered today: Peppa Pig’s World of Play is coming to the Detroit area Eminem is starring in a virtual-reality documentary set in Detroit And the restaurant and winery chain Cooper’s Hawk is eyeing Troy as the location of its second restaurant in Michigan. And finally, our interview feature is with Detroit entrepreneur Jennyfer Crawford about her new venture. The founder of the popular All Things Detroit market has launched All Things Ticketing. Her aim is to make throwing an event simpler.

IT in the D, Episode 59...and wow, this episode was just SOUPer! Ha ha, yeah, bad pun, sorry. Tonight we recapped our Pink Slip Party from last Thursday at the Majestic, discussed the latest round of leaked personal photos and movies from celebrities, and went all over the map with our guests from DetroitSOUP and All Things Detroit. And we even had the pleasure of being the platform for a launch announcement for our friends over at Daily Detroit. As to the details... We were joined in-studio by Amy from Detroit SOUP - http://detroitsoup.com/, Jennyfer from Ask Jennyfer and All Things Detroit - http://www.askjennyfer.com/, as well as Jeremiah, Patrick and Nick from Daily Detroit - http://www.dailydetroit.com/. In our first segment, we talked about last week's Pink Slip Party event. You can read the full recap of the event here: http://www.itinthed.com/15769/pink-slip-party-sept-2014-recap/ We also talked about the latest round of celebrity photo and movie leaks that took the internet by storm the other day...as well as what it all means as a reflection on us as a society, people's reactions, and all sorts of other topics that wove in and out throughout the chat. DetroitSOUP took center stage for our second segment, and Bob earned himself the "I learned something today" merit badge. DetroitSOUP is a monthly dinner funding micro-grants for creative projects in Detroit. Everyone shows up, pays $5, eats soup, and then there are pitches to be heard and voting to be done. Whoever has the best pitch of the night walks away with the cash. Kind of a cool concept, though not one that people traditionally think of when it comes to things like this, and we all definitely learned a lot about their processes, what they do, how they do it, and some of their success stories. We definitely enjoyed having Amy join us. Look forward to talking with her again in the future. You can find out all about them and their upcoming events at http://detroitsoup.com/ Our third segment focused in on Jennyfer from Ask Jennyfer and All Things Detroit. Ask Jennyfer is a branding and marketing company, with All Things Detroit being the core event. All Things Detroit features...well, all things Detroit. Products grown and made right here in the area, live demonstrations, giveaways and free stuff. $5 to get in (though there's a Groupon out there for a buy one, get one free at http://www.groupon.com/deals/all-things-detroit-iii), and you get to meet, see, and talk with people building and doing things throughout the city. You can find out more at http://www.askjennyfer.com/ For our fourth and final segment...we had the pleasure of being the platform that announced the launch for our friends Jeremiah, Patrick and Nick of their new endeavor, Daily Detroit. You may be familiar with these guys from their past work on other blogs and initiatives, and this is the next step in their evolution as content creators. Focusing on the entire metropolitan Detroit area, their tagline of "What's Next For Detroit?" really says it all. Their new site is a great destination for you whether you're looking for traffic updates, weather, things to do throughout the week or just the real deal on stories happening in the region. So go check them out at http://www.dailydetroit.com/ or https://www.facebook.com/TheDailyDetroit, and tell 'em we said hello.
