Co-hosts Brian Scott-Smith and CT Examiner Editor Gregory Stroud are joined by reporters Ally LeMaster, Luke Feeney and Eric Obernauer for a roundup of news across Connecticut and Arts Editor Robin Breeding with a weekly calendar of events.

Here are the stories:

1. Connecticut was one of four states to legalize recreational marijuana in 2021. Now 5 years later – with sales and revenues stalling – the state legislature passed new rules to open up the market.

2. Decades ago, the city of Stamford was given land to be used as a park – “forever.” But how long is forever when the city decides later to use it for something else?

3. State legislators have been debating a bill that would ensure the right to panhandle and sleep outdoors on public land – but what are local governments ready to get on board?
