Protests against Israel's military operations in Gaza escalated across the country last week, including in Knoxville. In this week's episode, Scott and Jesse talk about protesters speaking out at City Council and on the campus of the University of Tennessee. Also: an update on the new downtown stadium; Knox County's estimated population clears 500,000; and a look ahead at the Aug. 1 ballot. The guys also look ahead this week to meetings of the Knox County school board — which will discuss resolutions about armed staff members — and the Planning Commission.
