This weekend's show is all about art....really, REALLY big art that you can find around Michigan.We are talking all about murals, these giant art installations that are popping up everywhere, and making our cities and towns that much more beautiful.We were inspired to explore this topic by the recent creation of the absolutely AWESOME Shine Bright Saginaw Mural Project. It's the second-largest mural in the United States, and we are lucky to have it right here in Pure Michigan. It's incredible, and we have project director Mark Flegenheimer on to tell us how Saginaw rallied around this project to make it happen.....with all private funding.We'll also visit with Experience Jackson about Bright Walls, their multi-year initiative that has transformed downtown into a walkable gallery, and our friends at Visit Detroit about the beautiful murals you can see throughout our state's largest city.And don't miss our first guest, we landed nationally recognized mural artist, and Midland Michigan native, Joey Salamon to explain the process behind developing one of these works of art, and what goes into actually painting them. It's fascinating.Follow John and Amy:Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/behindthemittenTwitter at @BehindTheMittenInstagram at @BehindTheMitten

So... uh... what the hell happened Sunday afternoon in Detroit?Well, to begin, the Lakers won 121-116, which is obviously the most important detail. But along way... wow. You had the Lakers allow a horrific offensive Pistons squad score SIXTY-EIGHT (68) first half points. You had LeBron James getting ejected after hitting Isaiah Stewart in the face with a rough (if truly inadvertent) elbow to the face, followed by Stewart needing to be held back by roughly 1000 people for around twenty minutes before play resumed. You had the Lakers starting the fourth quarter down 15 to a (then) 4-11 opponent. And finally, you had Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook leading a fourth quarter blitz to get the Lakers a desperately needed win. (Or just avoid a horribly embarrassing loss. However you wanna put it.)After the win, DeAndre Jordan and other players framed the comeback and its context as a potential galvanizer for the season moving forward. Is that even possible, much less realistic? And as long as the future is being discussed, does Davis, rather than Westbrook or LeBron need to be the Lakers' clear cut best player for them to become championship-caliber. Andy thinks so, and explains why.Hosts: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT ONE: What to make of this very strange afternoon? And can the win galvanize the Lakers through what's been a season-long struggle?SEGMENT TWO: Did LeBron deserve an ejection? And what percentage of the team's issues are actually fixable, given their roster flaws?SEGMENT THREE: Does Davis, rather than LeBron, need to be the Lakers' best player in order for them to win a championship?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Today's show is in two parts. First, someone from the insurance company side who's willing to come on air and talk in detail about insurance rates in Detroit and how they might come down. Eric Poe heads up Cure auto insurance, a not-for-profit carrier that's entered the Detroit market and says they can signficantly reduce car insurance rates. I'm interested to see what you think when you kick the tires. Plus, Dr. Michael Lutz from the MIU Men's Health initiative previews Saturday's free health screening fair for men at Ford Field.

Today was a far busier day than anticipated. Let's get into the stories: 01:03 - Michigan's COVID situation continues to worsen, and some hospitals are overwhelmed.

This is part of a North American automaker shortage which is impacting Stellantis and Ford. 07:52 - What are the most dangerous stretches of road in Metro Detroit? Which ones bother you? Send in a voicemail at 313-789-3211 or leave a message on Speakpipe: https://www.speakpipe.com/DailyDetroit 09:23 - A pair of popular restaurants have been sold in Ferndale. 10:11 - Our feature story on the Lake Guardian. The 180-foot long EPA research vessel is on a mission to study our great lakes, keep an eye on the lower food web that underpins our ecosystem, and discover new species. There are 26 crew members here, and to talk about it, one of them - Dr. Anne Scoffield.  I'll be sure to put some pictures up on the website. Thanks to Jennifer who joined us as a member: http://www.patreon.com/dailydetroit Don't forget to tell a friend about the podcast! We'll see you Monday.

Online sports betting starts Friday in Michigan, and Detroit casinos are in on the action.

Detroit’s the crucible of the car in America, but the city is trying to make the streets better for the people who live here. That’s at the heart of a new program focused on those who walk, bike, take transit, or simply want their kids to have a safer neighborhood. On top of the nice-to-haves, the reality is that 100,000 Detroit residents who are old enough to have drivers licenses do not; and a quarter of households have no access to a car.  Caitlin Malloy-Marcon joins me from the Detroit Department of Public Works to talk about it. You can find more about what they’re doing here: Website: http://www.detroitmi.gov/streetsforpeople Facebook: City of Detroit Department of Public Works Instagram: @Detroit_DPW Plus, stories to know around metro Detroit.

We run down your headlines plus Randy Walker joins us to talk about Duck in Novi, Bread at Kroger and Dumplings downtown. 

The HBO show “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” last week turned its lens on the District Detroit, the Ilitch family’s mostly unrealized plan to redevelop 50 blocks as a vibrant mixed-use neighborhood between downtown and Midtown. Predictably, it did not go well for the Ilitches, who received $324 million in taxpayer assistance in exchange for what so far is the Little Caesars Arena, a Kid Rock restaurant and a couple dozen parking lots. Being opinionated on the subject, we talk about the episode, plus: 6:05 – An update on the progress of the old State Fairgrounds 6:45 – We break down the recent ruling from three federal judges that Michigan must redraw 34 congressional and legislative districts by Aug. 1 because they were unconstitutionally designed to favor Republicans. 8:07 – Jer interviews Detroit historian and civil rights author Ken Coleman about the life and legacy of Judge Damon J. Keith, a longtime federal judge and civil rights champion from Detroit who died Sunday at age 96. Also, as a heads up, our next segment airs on Detroit Public Television’s One Detroit on Thursday evening at 7:30 p.m. Thanks as always for listening to Daily Detroit.

Welcome to Monday, April 8, 2019. The weekend is over, that girl is totally not gonna call you, and your dreams are crushed. On today’s show, Consumers Energy has issued a report into why its Macomb County natural gas storage and compression facility caught fire on Jan. 30, prompting the utility to issue an emergency request asking people to dial back their thermostats as the mercury plunged below zero. In other news, a man whom paramedics believed was suffering from a drug overdose ended up becoming combative and stole the ambulance. He was apprehended a short time later by police. Also, Shield’s has opened its new Midtown location serving Detroit-style pizza. And the Detroit Shipping Company is getting a new Nepalese dumpling food stall called Momo Cha. Finally, the city of Detroit is hiring for 200 seasonal positions with its Parks and Recreation division. You can attend job fairs at the following times and locations, but you’re supposed to apply online first. Thanks for listening to Daily Detroit.

At least three boutique hotels are coming to Detroit, bringing a dose of luxury to still-gritty parts of the city. The Mid will take shape next to the old hammer-and-nail building on Woodward, while the West Elm Hotel will incorporate the old Bonstelle Theater several blocks south. And downtown, there are plans for a new 154-room hotel at 600 West Lafayette, plus the old Park Hotel downtown just sold to a hospitality company, suggesting yet more hotel rooms could be possible. Most of the hotels include mixed-use space, including some high-end “luxury” housing. On today’s show, we talk about what’s driving that, and why the spate of recent hotel development still isn’t enough to start landing us the really big mega-conventions and sportsball events. And on a tangent, we also dive into the idea that Detroit needs more Kroger or Meijer stores. FYI, there are some solid grocery stores here. In other news, Sterling Heights has announced the five finalists for naming the so-called “Golden Corridor Icon” of Hall Road. Also: Ferndale’s metered parking rates, and hours of enforcement, will go up April 1 — no April Fool’s joke here And drinking aficionado website Liquor.com has named two Detroit bars at the opposite end of the spectrum among the best places to drink around the world Thanks for listening to Daily Detroit.

A den of coyotes has taken up residence near downtown Detroit — specifically, in that weird no-man’s-land site of the old Brewster housing projects where I-75, I-375 and the spur to Gratiot Avenue converge. The Michigan DNR says not to worry. But if you live nearby in, say, Brush Park, you might want to keep a much closer eye on your pets. Also: Yes, we inaccurately datelined yesterday’s episode as a Monday. It brought to mind this classic scene from “Groundhog Day.” In other news, Dan Gilbert has a new podcast in the pipeline. It’s called “Speed of the Game,” and it has a tagline straight from a shoe company ad. Hmmmm….. Also: Ford plans to invest $900 million and create 900 new jobs in the coming years, mostly to build electric vehicles Downriver in Flat Rock The Detroit Regional Chamber is the first big business organization in Michigan to officially endorse Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s plan to “fix the damn roads” “Hamilton” creator Lin-Manuel Miranda surprises show-goers with an appearance at the Fisher Theater last night The 10th annual Marche du Nain Rouge happens Sunday All that and a bag of fun on this episode of your Daily Detroit.

Happy Hump Day, errrrybody. Today’s episode features a series of conversations. There’s big news for downtown Detroit’s emerging retail shopping scene, as fashionable Swedish retailer H&M is planning to open a store on Woodward Avenue this fall. Daily Detroit’s retail maven, Shianne Nocerini, joins Jer to talk about it. Jer then talks with me all about Mayor Mike Duggan’s State of the City address last night. I update you on medical marijuana. Dispensaries operating under temporary licenses will now have a hard March 31 deadline to get licensed or face closure. Plus a few other things to know about this industry. Finally, Shi and Jer talk about Empty Bowls Detroit, which is this Friday night at Shed 5 in Eastern Market. The annual event raises money for Cass Community Services. Those two will be serving up hot soup from local restaurants at the event, so if you are there, be sure to stop by and say hi.

We recorded today’s episode at The Rattlesnake, which is joining as a sponsor of your Daily Detroit. We have some more tasty more details on the new Buddy’s location in downtown Detroit. Elsewhere, we discuss Campbell Soup Company’s planned sale of Ferndale’s Garden Fresh to a company based in Quebec, Canada. Co-founder Jack Aronson had bid to buy back his old company, but couldn’t seal the deal. We also cover the Big News out of Sterling Heights, that a Target is closing down. How big, you ask? Big enough that the mayor, Michael C. Taylor, issued a statement about it. Two other news bits: Developers opened a new $7.2 million affordable housing in a handsome old multi-unit apartment building in Detroit’s North End And Meijer has announced a new program to encourage people to safely discard unused or expired prescription drugs at pharmacy locations We then speak with the Rattlesnake's Executive Chef Jeff Lanctot all about the venerable riverfront institution and its participation in Detroit Restaurant Week, which runs through March 2 (take it from us, the food is very good, we wouldn’t let them on if it wasn’t). Michelle Taylor, the director of catering, also joins us. Be well, faithful listeners! Thanks for supporting Daily Detroit.

Another day, another truckbed-full of news in Detroit. Fiat Chrysler made arguably the biggest splash with its announcement that it plans to invest $4.5 billion in five Detroit-area plants and create nearly 6,500 jobs. Central to that is plans to convert the Mack Avenue Engine Complex on Detroit’s east side to an assembly plant to build the next-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee and a yet-to-be-named three-row Jeep SUV. If all goes according to plan, construction could begin by mid-year. Forbes will hold its Under 30 Summit in Detroit for three years, starting this fall State environmental regulators have issued a violation against the Marathon Oil Refinery in Southwest Detroit after residents complained of foul odors The Detroit Public Schools Community District is reclaiming three of its buildings from charter schools, and a fourth from a church, Chalkbeat Detroit reports City Council President Brenda Jones has ordered a draft ordinance that would prohibit the construction of any more bike lanes in Detroit without Council’s OK Meanwhile, Council Member Raquel Castaneda-Lopez wants a report from the Ilitch family’s Olympia Development on how District Detroit is squaring with early promises (so far, we’re guessing the answer would be, “not very well”) GM and Ford agree to buy wind power from DTE Energy to cover operations at facilities including GM’s RenCen offices and two Ford assembly plants The owner of Flowers of Vietnam eyes a new Mexican concept on Michigan Avenue in Detroit

On today's show: President Trump is taking aim at GM's electric car incentives that were going to sunset anyway Ford's incentives for their $740 million Corktown campus are approved Shield's is opening in Midtown - https://www.metrotimes.com/table-and-bar/archives/2018/11/26/detroit-style-pizza-maker-shields-is-opening-a-midtown-location The historic building that until recently was home to Cheli's Chili Bar was sold to the Ilitches Detroit's getting a new Welcome Center And Shianne Nocerini gives you her picks for Noel Night, that's now expanded into daytime.
