Should Detroit make an Olympic bid? // Hulk pushback // Corktown controversy

Daily Detroit

About this episode

Happy Friday! Today - a busy show. 

A local man held prisoner by Russia was freed as part of a swap. We discuss.

We get into a question some of you had about whether Detroit should bid for a future Olympics - and get into if that's something we even want to go for?

Plus, some listeners weren't happy with an earlier episode where Fletcher Sharpe had strong feelings about Hulk Hogan. FYI. Devon also has strong feelings. Plus how media and audiences need to not just include voices of color, but allow them to bring their experience. 

Finally, we end talking about the great brick debate in Corktown. A plan to redo Michigan Avenue in one of Detroit's oldest sections of town has caused some strong feelings - and we get into multiple sides of the discussion and where folks stand. 

Yes, our cover art is AI generated nonsense, asking if what it might look like if Detroit held the Olympics. It's Friday, after all.
