There's a lot of talk about energy in this week's Compass Points podcast, as Scott and Jesse talk about the Tennessee Valley Authority's plans for small "modular" nuclear reactors, as well as alternative fuel steps by Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Pilot/Flying J. They also follow developments in discussion of controversial books in school libraries and how the district handles challenges to them. In the interview segment, they chat with Knox County Commissioner Larsen Jay about the Junior Commissioner program, a new fund to build playgrounds at local schools, and why he voted against the county's new ambulance contract. Looking ahead to next week, the guys look ahead to the city inauguration ceremony and City Council organizational meeting coming up on Saturday and they preview meetings of County Commission, City Council and the Planning Commission. What better time to share the gift of Compass!!! Help Scott and Jesse enjoy the happiest of holidays this year!
