If you are a long time listeners of the show, you know that the far east side of Detroit by the riverfront is near and dear to my heart.

Recently, they've been dealing with flooding and other issues that are a harbinger of what's to come. See, our region has some major infrastructure issues to handle - and there's some big impacts on what will happen going forward if we don't address them now.

Josh Elling is the CEO of Jefferson East, a multi-service neighborhood service organization whose area contains much of Detroit's riverfront east of downtown and Jefferson Chalmers.

I enjoy having him on the show because we get into the details of what's happening on the ground. How we need to deal with water. Changes that may be needed in Detroit's building code to handle a wetter future. A needed seawall. How projects have been impacted. How this all works regionally because the water issue isn't just in one area, but something that impacts all of Metro Detroit. How, if we work together, there can be a lot of hope.

So sure, if you live in the immediate area you'll want to listen. But if you care about communities in southeast Michigan, you'll want to listen, too.

Mature trees are more important than ever.

Our climate is changing, with Metro Detroit on pace in a best case to feel like northern Arkansas within a lifetime; and worst, Texas.

So how do we protect the trees we have?

What trees should we be thinking of planting so they survive climate change?

We get into all of that and more with Dan Herms, Vice President of Research and Development for The Davey Tree Expert Company.

Lots of Detroit City FC news.

Fletcher Sharpe talks about the news breaking before we record the show about Karl Ouimette being loaned to DCFC from Indy Eleven. He has quite the history, and you won't want to miss it.

Plus, are some pundits covering the USL Championship moving the goalposts on the club? Fletcher says yes. That there's still a long way to go and a lot to learn, but there's no doubt Le Rouge is showing they belong and are doing well.

Tulsa is next on the schedule on the road, so Fletcher previews that.

And, we the women's season kicks off this Saturday and we'd be remiss if we didn't mention it and give you some names to watch this year.

Anthony Bourdain was right: Travel changes you. A recent trip to Chicago hits different in your 40s than your 20s or 30s. As listeners asked us to include more examples, ideas and experiences from other cities, here we go.

Plus, Devon experiences the excellence that is Barda; Belle Isle is getting road trolleys; we talk about Cavnue, I-94 and what the heck is it; Plans for the Fairlane Mall (and the magical Ramadan festival in the parking lot at night); and there's some interesting things to do around town.
