Description

We were joined by former Grand Rapids Griffins Head Coach Ben Simon throughout our entire first hour today. He filled us in on everything that's transpired over the past few days as the Griffins and Red Wings have decided to go in a different direction. Ben talked to us about his 8 years with the Griffins, plans moving forward, and so much more. In our second hour, we were joined by the Executive Director of the Michigan High School Athletic Association, Mark Uyl. Mark joined us throughout the hour to talk about inclusivity in High School sports, when it comes to the topic of transgender athletes. Mark filled us in on guidelines and how Michigan High Schools handle this, if its even really an issue that happens often, discussed the impact of Title 9, and much more. Huge asked the audience - Where do you stand when it comes to transgender athletes and the issue that arises when it comes to transgender athletes taking roster spots? We continued the conversation in regards to transgender athletes in our second hour as we took your calls and opinions on the issue. In our final hour, we were joined in studio by former Major Leaguer John Vander Wal to talk about the Tigers. Throughout the hour, he and Huge gave their thoughts on the Tigers a few weeks in and discussed the recent 5 game win streak. They also talked about some of the players that need to step up their game, looked ahead to the next few series for the Tigers, and so much more. We wrapped up the show with our True & Blue Segment as we were joined by Terri and Jill McDonnell. Terry is the Chief of Police of Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Indians Police Department, and Jill is the Chief of Police in Charlevoix. They joined Huge to talk about what life is like as a married couple working in law enforcement, discussed what their daily lives entail, and filled us in on how you could get a job in law enforcement.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
