ML Soul of Detroit

Detroit’s Clerk Counts – October 20, 2020


Listen Later


* M.L. Elrick (Twitter @elrick/Facebook ML ELRICK/Instagram ml_elrick), Marc Fellhauer (Twitter @MarcFell), Shawn Windsor (Twitter @ShawnWindsor) and Detroit Free Press contributing columnist Darren Nichols (Twitter @dnick12/Facebook Darren Nichols) grill Detroit City Clerk Janice Winfrey — who fires back! Matt Jennings (Twitter @MattRJennings) goes for the three-peat while Joey Zuver prays for America.* THE STRAIGHT DOPE:  Darren, who called out the clerk in one of his columns for the Free Press, goes toe-to-toe with Madam Clerk in his first in-studio visit to Red Shovel Headquarters. * The clerk spends a lot of time in the hot seat. But she doesn’t hesitate to fire back at the “main stream media,” protesters who marched outside her house, and anyone who doesn’t think her team does as well as clerks in other cities. * ML asks the clerk to explain why some votes in ballot boxes can’t be recounted. Her answer may stagger you. * Marc asks the clerk whether other large Michigan cities are getting the same support as Detroit from the Michigan Secretary of State. Her answer may surprise you — it sure seemed to raise Marc’s eyebrows.* The clerk takes plenty o’ heat, but the boys learn she also keeps lists. Case in point: She crosses swords with Darren, then calls out the leader of protesters who have been marching outside her home. * THE GREAT DEBATE: ML forgot to bring the mic he’s been hoarding at home, so has to Darren tap out so Shawn can jump into the ring to debate whether public officials’ homes should be off-limits for protesters trying to make a point.* GEEK OF THE WEEK: Marc takes the topic by the horn (so to speak), prompting ML to chime in, while Shawn itches to get in the game. Which he does — just in time to take a haymaker! It’s not clear, however, whether it is the force of the blow, or a desire to catch his critics off guard, that inspired Shawn’s totally counter-intuitive GOW selection.* THIS WEEK IN SOFT HISTORY: Adjunct professor of history (and diesel technology) Matthew Xavier Jennings goes for the three-peat. Does he make it? You’ll have to listen to find out!* ROOM 7609: Radiohead-head Marc has two options for a NuWave cover and, to ML’s delight, opts for the virtuosos’ version of The Smiths’ “Headmaster Ritual.”* HARD OUT: Find out how you can sponsor the show and get a one-of-a-kind token of our appreciation.
