* M.L. Elrick (Twitter @elrick/Facebook ML ELRICK/Instagram ml_elrick), Shawn Windsor (Twitter @ShawnWindsor), Marc Fellhauer (Twitter @MarcFell) and Matt Jennings (Twitter @MattRJennings) were planning on a great show … and then something happened. Joey Zuver is forced to witness the whole damn debacle.* THE STRAIGHT DOPE: Before superstar restaurant critic and storyteller Mark Kurlyandchik joins the fray, ML threatens to commit canine-icide.* Mark (with a k — and a K) tells us how he got to know Tristan Taylor, one of the leaders of what has been called The People’s March, The Movement and Detroit Will Breathe. And he opens with a zinger!* Marc (with a c — and a See You on Facebook Live) asks how the restaurant critic got pulled into the Detroit Free Press’ coverage of the daily marches against police brutality. And we learn that Mark (with a k — and a Kaboodle of experience in the journalism biz) is one multi-faceted cat!* Shawn stops the show to mark a Soul of Detroit record. You’ll have to endure 17 minutes of blather to find out what it is. But it is s-o-o-o-o worth it! And Mark (with a k — as in “oK, enough of this already!”) gets in another zinger.* The lads discuss The Movement’s demands, which include opposition to the city’s use of facial recognition to fight crime.* Mark (with a k — as in, enough of this “with a K and a C stuff”) discusses his job as restaurant critic, how he handles lousy restaurants — and how there’s so much more to it. Including this story, which posted right after Mark went back to his day job.* Mark has some fun with Marc over a review Mark did that Marc mocked years ago on the Drew and Mike Podcast.* ML, Shawn, Marc and Mark delve into the fate of restaurants and bars, which can finally re-open after three months on ice during the governor’s Stay Home orders designed to slow the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. Here’s Mark’s report on one of the first restaurants to re-open.* THE GREAT DEBATE: Mike Judge in “Office Space” couldn’t get enough flair. But a local market got caught up in controversy when it banned some flair. What SHOULD they have done?* GEEK OF THE WEEK: A Fox Network News evening host hammered LeBron James for making political comments, but gave Drew Brees a pass for doing the same thing. If you’re wondering what characteristics we’re looking for in a GOW, start with HYPOCRISY!!!* THIS WEEK IN SOFT HISTORY: Looking back over millennia of human achievement, Matt picks out three — just three!
