Daily Detroit

Big show today, wrapping up DCFC's tired win against Hartford and previewing their upcoming match against New York Red Bulls II.

We discuss with some dates looming ahead if it's time for DCFC to consider getting a loaned player in the next couple weeks.

For new soccer fans, loans work different than in other U.S. sports and you'll want to listen to how they work.

PLUS - we speculate on the future of the beloved Keyworth as the home of Le Rouge with two different takes.

Tuesday was a night for the history books, and a new chapter was written for a legendary club, Detroit City FC.

Against most odds, DCFC bested the Columbus Crew, an MLS squad, 2-1 in the U.S. Open Cup.

Fletcher Sharpe is in the studio and we do an in-depth breakdown of what went right, what went wrong, and what this means going forward.

Of course, we do Detroit City FC coverage every Monday but this is a special episode because, well, this is a big deal.

Usually, we do shows each weekday but this week we're only doing three because we have team members down. Next we'll be on air on Friday.

We're going to try some wine and talk about wine in Michigan and Detroit.

Yes, its a growing thing. Not just in numbers, but in types.

Our guest from Detroit Vineyards, Chris Southern, is not only going to walk us through some bottles for spring, but share some insight on the industry, maybe give you some things to think about when it comes to your perceptions of wine in our great grape state, and yes — how what's happening in the wider world impacts a local business.
