9/5/24: Congressman Jim McGovern on the upcoming debate & Liz Cheney's announcement she'll be voting for Harris! UMass Pol Sci prof & pollster Ray La Raja: UMass Task Force rec'd on campus political protests, & the reliability of polling. Ruth Griggs w/ Jazz Fest headliner Anat Cohen.

Join us as we speak with Michelle Wirth co-owner of Mercedes Benz (with her husband Peter). They moved here 7 years ago from New Jersey and have quickly made WMA their home with their 4 kids. As we know, Covid was a big disrupter to many businesses and seeing that MB was only in its 2nd year the need to hustle and pivot was essential. In addition to shoring up the dealership, Michelle also felt called to create a new business based around shopping local and Feel Good Shop Local was born in 2021/2022 at the Big E. Go to www.feelgoodshoplocal.com to learn more about the business and how over 70 businesses have joined the platform. How we think about supporting local, small businesses and the impact that we can have if we divert just a small amount of money away from Amazon and big box shopping, matters. Listen in as we hear an update from Michelle on her businesses and what events you should be on the lookout for in the fall of 2024.
