Well today is Friday, August 5th, so that means it's time for your weekly news roundup, where I read the news so you don't have to! It was kind of a slow news week last week, but today we'll look at payments Montgomery County will receive as part of an opiod settlement, and I'll tell you an upcoming LEGO convention, and much more. There are events happening as early as tonight, so don't wait to listen! Also, I wanted to update everyone that three of you participated in the competition to get some free merch by leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Facebook, so many thanks to KeddyAllen, wsuraider88, and winner of the competition and former Gem City Podcast co-host, Terry Izzy Rock Martin, so congrats and please get in touch to let me know what you want! Many thanks as well to the show's Patreon supporters Dustin Waters, Randy Brooks, Valerie Smith, Jennifer Riggsby, and Patti Heard. Thanks as well to my writer Johanna Kauflin, thank you for listening, and stay funky, Dayton!

Well your News Roundup episode comes a day early this week as I won't be able to record it Thursday, but there's still plenty to report on and a lot happening this weekend and beyond, including things happening tonight (Thursday, July 7), so be sure to listen soon! Also don't forget to leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Facebook for the show before this month is over so you can be entered into a drawing to win free Discover Dayton Podcast merch! Show transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton Podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. My name is Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today is actually Thursday, July 7, 2022, which means that your news roundup is coming a day early this week as I won't be able to get it posted tomorrow. But, there's still plenty that happened last week, including drama unfolding at the Montgomery County Board of Elections, rent that's too damn high, and early voting starting already for fall elections, so be sure to listen for those stories as well as stuff to do this weekend all coming up in just a moment.    And now for last week's news:   Some partisan drama on the Montgomery County Board of Elections as Republican Jeff Rezabek calls for the resignation of his Democrat counterpart Sarah Greathouse. Rezabek argues that the Board should not have accepted the write-in candidacy of LeRonda Jackson since it was filed after the February deadline set by Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose. Jackson filed suit with the Ohio Supreme Court, who ruled that LaRose improperly imposed the deadline and allowed Jackson's candidacy, which was certified along party lines. Rezabek is now calling for Greathouse's resignation, claiming she betrayed him and the integrity of the Board of Elections. Board Democrats including Greathouse have countered that not accepting Jackson's candidacy would have opened the Board of Elections up to legal liability. Greathouse says the only mistake she made was in not informing her Republican counterpart of her decision. Jackson will be the Democrat on the ballot for the 39th House District this August.    Thursday, July 28th, the Montgomery County Treasurer's Office will be at the Northwest Branch Library giving a financial literacy class for anyone interested. The class will focus on the basics of spending money responsibly and banking. The program will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. More information can be found at daytonmetrolibrary.org/programs.    Rent is going way up across the nation, and unfortunately the Dayton area is no different. Many renters are seeing increases greater than what were specified in their leases, up to 9 or 10%. This continues a trend of rent outpacing salary increases virtually everywhere as we also see the worst inflation numbers in about four decades. Rents nationwide rose about 11% in 2021, and Dayton saw similar numbers. Studio apartment rents rose 20%, and one-bedroom rents rose 12%. According to the Greater Dayton Apartment association, market rents typically go up about 3-4% each year, but increases of 7-8% have been more typical recently. Contributing factors include inflation, supply chain issues, and labor shortages. Some Dayton residents have even reported rent increases up to 78%, usually with only one month's notice. The GDAA also notes lack of affordable rental units as an issue in the area, especially after the tornadoes in 2019 destroyed many such properties, many of which have not yet been rebuilt.     The active shooter response training offered by Dayton Police is in high demand lately, the department says. The training is based on the FBI's “Run Hide Fight” model and has been around for several years, but the increase in active shooter incidents has prompted many organizations in the Miami Valley to undergo it. Since Columbine in 1999, police response times to such incidents have gone down significantly, but there are usually still a few crucial minutes where civilians are alone with the shooter where knowing how to respond could save lives. The basic premise is run if you can, hide if you have to, fight as a last resort. Anyone interested in this training can contact Dayton Police at DPD_DLEE@daytonohio.gov.    Dayton Police are considering implementing automatic license plate readers in the area, a move that has many concerned. The technology is designed to help officers identify vehicles associated with criminal activity, but critics have long pointed out the invasion of privacy they involve. The cost effectiveness of plate readers has also been called into question. The city is taking public comments until June 13th, and is holding a public hearing on the 20th. You can e-mail your comments to regina.blackshear@daytonohio.gov. And, if you'd like to listen to a deep-dive into police reform efforts in Dayton, be sure to check out the last two episodes on this show where I talk with local activist Julio Mateo about his involvement in police reform for the past several years.    The Dayton Public School District will be running their summer meals program through JUly 29th. Children aged 18 and under are eligible to receive breakfast, lunch, and a snack at a variety of locations across the Miami Valley. DPS is sponsoring the program in partnership with the Ohio Department of Education. To find meal sites near you, call the USDA National Hunger Hotline at 866-348-6479 weekdays between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m.     Early voting for the Ohio gubernatorial, house, and senate primaries began yesterday, Wednesday, July 6th. The primary opens completely on August 2nd, but you can cast your vote early in person at various locations in the area. The Montgomery County Board of Elections say they expect a very low turnout for the mostly uncontested races, but that doesn't change the amount of work it'll take to hold the election. Statehouse primaries were originally planned for May of this year, but the Ohio Redistricting Commission failed to redraw district maps that the state Supreme Court agreed with. A federal court ordered that the primaries be held in August with the existing maps, and they be re-drawn in 2024. Some Montgomery County polling places have changed, namely a few churches, so some voters will be getting mail notifying them of their new polling places. Though there are no contested primaries in Montgomery County, it's still worth getting involved and voting whenever possible.       Well someone from Dayton will be visiting the White House next week as local Oregon District shooting survivor Dion Green visits President Biden to recognize the passing of the first legislation in 30 years to deal with gun safety. Green's father, Derrick Fudge, was killed in the Oregon District shooting back in 2019, and through the help of donations, Green has traveled since then to communities that are affected by gun violence to help the families who are dealing with trauma in the aftermath of those shootings. You can learn more about the foundation at www.fudgefoundation.org.   Montgomery County unveiled a new system recently called the Overdose Surge Alert, which is a text notifcation system that you can opt into by texting your 5 digit zip code to (937) 582-8667 that alerts you whenever there are higher than average numbers of overdoses in the area. So far this year already there have been 133 overdoses in Montgomery County alone.    And finally this week Ohio made headlines for all the wrong reasons as a 10-year old rape victim was forced to cross state lines and seek an abortion in Indiana, where it's still legal (for now) for her to do so. The victim was six weeks and three days pregnant, meaning she was three days past when it was legal for her to obtain an abortion. It would also mean that it was still legal for her to obtain an abortion at the time of her victimization. Dewine weighed in on the story recently by calling the situation a “tragedy,” but did not take any responsibility for the fact that he played an outsized role in making it illegal for 10-year-old rape victims to seek an abortion in Ohio. If you'd like to follow a local Dayton organization that is working to make abortion legal again, check out @end40days on Instagram. There, you'll find out about upcoming protests. They also suggest that, since the right to privacy of so many people are being taken away, you may as well call up Governor Dewine and give him all of the details about your periods, so I encourage you to do that as well, and you can reach him at 614-466-3555.    All right, that's it for last week's news, we move now to upcoming events, and before we do, here's a quick word from Libby Ballengee, former co-host of the Gem City Podcast about dayton937.com, which is where I go to find all of the events that I tell you about on this show!   Copy from Dayton937.com: (Libby Ballengee reading) Hello Discover Dayton fans! Thank you so much for listening to local podcasts, this is your friend Liubby Ballengee, former co-host of the Gem City Podcast. I always love people who are reaching out, supporting community, and looking for ways to support artists, businesses, that are trying to make this city more vibrant. And Discover Dayton Podcast is one of them. Also I've been working on Dayton937.com. It is an online magazine where you can find out all kinds of fun events for kids, young adults, music fans, art lovers, foodies… so we also have a printed version we have been putting around town for the past year. They are bright green. They are free. There's a list of where you can pick those up at dayton937.com. You can also see a digital PDF version of this event guide and it's just a summary of some of the great events that are happening around town. So we hope you are able to go and support these events and businesses and make the most of working and playing in the Miami Valley. Thanks so much everyone!   And many thanks to Libby for that message.   And now here's what's happening this weekend and beyond:   Well tonight at Levitt Pavillion you can see Mike Mains and The Branches perform a free show from 7-9pm. The pop-rock Michigan band has been around for 10 years now and it promises to be a great show.    Friday the 8th The Tillers are bringing folk music to the Levitt Pavilion starting at 7 p.m. The Cincinnati folk foursome will be playing their modern storytelling music for a free show that is open to all.   Before you see The Tillers though you can stop over at the Yellow Cab Tavern for their Food Truck Rally, which goes from 5-9pm. They'll have at least 10 food trucks joining them, so you won't want to miss it!   Also on Friday you can see a performance at Black Box Improv Theater of a show called Low Hanging Fruit. Tickets are just $15 and the show goes from 8-10pm. Also new at Black Box is that they now sell alcohol, so you don't have to bring your own drinks!    On Saturday the 9th the Dayton Society of Artists is holding a nude figure drawing session at 9:30 a.m. at the High Street Gallery. The gallery is located at 48 High Street and there is a $5 modeling fee.    Also on the 9th, starting at 11 a.m. will be the 2nd annual Dayton Black Pride event at McIntosh Park on Edwin C. Moses. The event is open to the public and will feature food, vendors, and live entertainment.    If you're into the Dayton Pro Wrestling scene, there will be a ceremony recognizing the stars of the past, present, and future of the circuit on July 9th at noon in the IUE CWA Hall on Woodman Drive. Food will be available and there will be two live pro wrestling events.    The Levitt Pavilion will also have music on Saturday the 9th, when two-time Grammy winner Terrance Simien and the Zydeco Experience will perform a free show. The Louisiana Creole roots and jazz artist will be performing starting at 7 p.m.    After that, you'll have time to make it to Blind Bob's at 10 p.m. to see The Gem City Get Down, Dayton's favorite local hip hop party. The show will feature three artists and costs $5 to get in, with all proceeds going to the Polar Bear Book Swap.     The 170th Montgomery County Fair opens on July 10th at 8 a.m. and will be running all week. All your favorite events from years past will be there, including petting zoos, food and vendors, a dog show, circus, and tons more. Admission is $10 and you can see a full schedule of activities on montcofair.com.    On July 10th there will be a standing protest for reproductive rights at Bomberger park on Keowee. The plan is to start at noon and fan out from the park, protesting until around 3 p.m.    Finally on the 14th the Levitt will host Luke Winslow-King's unique blend of delta blues, folk, and roots rock and roll at 7p.m. As always for the Pavilion, admission is free and open to the public.    All right that's it for this week's episode.

Itâ??s so damn cold in the D Canal Street Stories The Shape of Water Last Jedi revisited Podcast Podcast Podcast NFL Wildcard NCAA Championship Piece of Pizza Podcast is a podcast that started in June of 2017. Based out of Springfield, Ohio and featuring hosts and former Gem City Podcast guest for the band 3 Piece Suit http://gemcitypodcast.com/?p=2260, B.J., James Michael Fazio, and producer Joe. This was an episode they recorded with Gem City Podcast co-host/producer Izzy Rock. Izzy picked up a large deluxe Marionâ??s at the Englewood, Ohio location and drove 45 minutes away to Springfield. On this week's episode, we try a super fancy Marion's Piazza (like Mike Piazza) Pizza with local podcast legend Izzy Rock of the Gem City Podcast. The guys talk origin stories, go "inside baseball" on podcasting and Mike inflates BJ's ego for some reason. https://soundcloud.com/pieceofpizzapodcast/pop-podcast-11172017 https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/piece-of-pizza-podcast/id1246176681 https://twitter.com/TheIzzyRock https://www.facebook.com/TheIzzyRock https://www.facebook.com/TalesFromTheHardsidePodcast Call the voicemail: 937-265-2024 http://gemcitypodcast.com/ iTunes- https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/gem-city-podcast/id646008927?mt=2 Stitcher- http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/eric-ruiz/gem-city-podcast Twitter- https://twitter.com/GemCityPodcast Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/GemCityPodcast
