Listen Later

It's the Friday News Roundup! Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Rodrigo Torrejón, criminal justice and law enforcement reporter for The Philadelphia Inquirer, and Alan Yu, science reporter at WHYY. They discuss how law enforcement finally cracked a multimillion dollar catalytic converter theft ring, and share updates from the Mütter Museum’s first community feedback meeting. Plus, why one Philly doctor isn’t just saying to eat your veggies, but your animal organ meats, too.
