Daily Detroit

Big time in Detroit sports. For the first time in a long time, the Detroit Lions are actually in the playoff hunt. Michigan lost to TCU and Harbaugh might go pro. Roster changes continue to Detroit City FC, and Fletcher shares some thoughts on Damar Hamlin as he's a former player.

00:38 - Detroit Lions possible playoff scenarios

12:37 - Michigan loses to TCU. What's next? Does the school still have the same allure for players it once did?

20:36 It seems like Harbaugh is flirting with going pro again. Is it time to just let it go?

24:06 We get into a couple roster changes at Detroit City FC. Nate Steinwascher is signed, but Deklan Wynne is out to Charleston Battery to play under former Le Rouge coach Ben Pirmann.

28:08 - Fletcher shares his thoughts on Damar Hamlin as it hits close to home for him.

Engineer Randy Walker joins me for a veritable podcasting trifecta. Here are the three things we're talking about today:

01:16 - Sour beers are kind of a niche in the brewing world, and since Randy's such a fan we're trying some from Ferndale Project and ranking them. Not sponsored - just, a chance to try something different. Maybe you like them, maybe you don't, but if you haven't maybe give the genre a try.

10:05 - Apartment Disco is open on Detroit's east side on the border with the Grosse Pointes. Randy's been in and has what you need to know before you go.

16:12 - And finally, if you're looking to build a bar kit for home to try some craft cocktails you make yourself, we share what you need.
