Devon O'Reilly is in for his Friday appearance. We talk about a few thigns around town, but the big focus of conversation is food trucks. Where should they be allowed? Do they compete with local businesses? Devon has some strong opinions about a proposed ordinance in Dearborn that would put some strong limits on them. The rundown: Where we've been: 01:50 - CIBO is open in the Cambria, and it looks amazing 04:27 - Jer went to see Waitress the Musical movie with Sara Bareilles at the Birmingham 8. Good show, historic theater. Stories: 07:02 - Dearborn food truck ordinance discussion (would love your feedback and opinions) Rapid fire food news 18:56 - Caribou coffee drive thru opening in Ferndale on Monday. Do drive-thrus work for you? Do you prefer a coffeeshop to sit in? 21:27 - Batch Brewing has launched a full menu 22:21 - Cinema Detroit finds a pop-up home in Planet Ant in Hamtramck Feedback as always - dailydetroit - at - gmail - dot - com or 313-789-3211 Follow us on Apple Podcasts: https://lnk.to/dailydetroitonapple Or Spotify: https://lnk.to/dailydetroitonspotify Thanks to our members: http://www.patreon.com/dailydetroit Or those who do a one-time contribution: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/dailydetroit
Norris Howard and Jer answer some of your Detroit and Southeast Michigan related questions and respond to feedback. The three main topics we got into had a lot of feedback and we picked a few of the responses that seemed to either be unique or go into a general category or feeling. We talk about the future of movie theaters. Can Detroit support one? Is it even Detroit's fault if it can't with the changes of the pandemic? Also, cheers to Cinema Detroit who made a heck of a run as a brick and mortar and are now doing pop-ups. A lot of feedback on our conversation about cannabis and the marijuana industry in Detroit. A couple of interesting thoughts. And finally, a listener is very passionate about the Rosa Parks Transit Center, and wondered if we could make it a discussion topic. So we did! And it feels like there's so much more than could be done.

The 1989 film Chameleon Street, written, directed by, and starring Wendell B. Harris Jr. won the grand jury prize for a dramatic film at Sundance Film Festival in 1990. But that honor didn't lead to the accolades and long directing career that it should have. This quirky masterwork tells the true crime story of William Douglas Street, Jr., a con artist from Detroit who has successfully impersonated athletes, lawyers, reporters, and doctors over a long career of scamming. He is currently in prison for identity theft. I spoke with Cinema Detroit co-founder Paula Guthat about this fascinating film, the wild story behind it, and how Harris molded this tale of the con into a reflection of life, society, and the performance of being human.

My guest Paula Guthat is the co-founder of Cinema Detroit and the popular TCM Party hashtag. She came to me with a dilemma, how do you react when you learn that one of your cinematic favs has done something horrific? The answer is personal, often not definitive, and complicated, especially when you are a film programmer as Paula is. We talked about the issue as it relates to our past, present, and future.
