Craig's guest today is Elyse Foltyn, Board Chair at The Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MOCAD).   MOCAD  has had a tumultuous 2020, as it dealt with charges that museum leadership was insensitive to racial issues, and created a toxic work environment.   After an investigation, changes were made at the Executive Director level, and certain employees that had been let go by the previous director have been brought back.  MOCAD also appointed some new board members, and says it is now finding its footing and getting back to its mission.  

Craig is joined by regular Monday guest Pat Batcheller of WDET to break down the weekend's football action, which featured an improbable Lions victory, a dominating performance by the Michigan Wolverines, and a way less than good performance by the MSU Spartans.  

Craig's regular weekly discussion of the big news of the week.  Panelists this week include Portia Roberson, CEO of Focus:Hope; Stephen Henderson, host of "Detroit Today" on WDET; and Devin Scillian, lead news anchor at WDIV, Channel 4 in Detroit.  The team breaks down the final debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and of course, have nominees for "Schmuck of the Week."  

Craig's guest is Paul Eisenstein, publisher of TheDetroitBureau.Com about the increasing number of electric vehicles being announce by companies large and small.   Charge life is getting longer, costs are coming down, and we'll have more choices than ever soon.  Are consumers ready for the switch?   

Craig's guest is State Senator Marshall Bullock (D-4).  The two discuss Saturday's incident where police were called for "suspicious behavior" as  Bullock and two other Black politicians were campaigning in a white neighborhood in St. Joseph, Michigan.    Craig also has some thoughts on the settlement that the U.S. Justice department announced today with Purdue Pharma, the company that makes OxyContin.  Plus, some thoughts on a new poll released today that shows some 50% (???) of Trump voters believe at least parts of the beyond far fetched "Qanon" conspiracy.  

Craig is joined for regular Monday morning sports banter by his longtime friend Pat Batcheller of WDET, Detroit Public Radio.  The two discuss the Lions win over the Jaguars, the upcoming World Series, the return of Big Ten football, and the retirement of longtime NHL announcer, Doc Emrick.  

Craig is joined by regular Deadline Detroit contributors Nancy Derringer and Allan Lengel, with special guests, attorney Todd Perkins, and PR specialist Greg Bowens.  Topics include the SCOTUS hearings, the dueling town hall meetings of President Trump and Vice President Joe Biden, the New York Post story about Hunter Biden, and of course, our nominees for "Schmuck of the Week."  

Craig's guest is Mary Beth Kelly.  Kelly is a former Justice of the Michigan Supreme Court, and is now seeking a seat on the Wayne County Circuit Court.  

Craig's guest is photographer / artist / Marcus Lyon, who's latest work,  i.Detroit: A Human Atlas of an American City, launches this week.  i.Detroit is a sprawling look at 100 Detroiters through multiple lenses.  An interactive work, it includes photography, oral histories, DNA profiles, and much more.  The book gives us a detailed look at the people that make up our city.  The virtual book launch takes place on Thursday.
