Today's show is in three parts. First, recent developments in Detroit's marijuana business environment - including pushing a vote out to change on how close marijuana businesses can be from certain community places - have sparked a conversation. The city voted 69-31 for recreational marijuana in 2018, but there are vocal and powerful corners not embracing it, and actively fighting against those businesses in the city. We discuss. Is it a NIMBY situation? (Not in my backyard) Some background: https://twitter.com/TheDailyDetroit/status/1678800038737084418  https://www.bridgedetroit.com/proposal-would-give-detroiters-more-space-in-the-marijuana-industry/ Hill Harper is running for US Senate. We discuss his candidacy in relation to metro Detroit. Of course, both are welcome on the show for future interviews. Finally, we answer a listener question on why we cover both the city and the suburbs (yes, we're a regional podcast).
