Should College Sports Be "Saved"? Google Data Center Clash & Metro Detroit Fall Fun

On today's episode, fall is in the air! From where to go to the news you need to know, we have you covered.

The Rundown:

Fall Outings in Metro Detroit - Devon makes the case for why you should take your family to the Heritage Park Petting Farm in Taylor, and Jer talks about his sneek peek of Elmwood Alight, a sensory light-mapping and art installation inside Detroit's historic Elmwood Cemetery.

Senate Passes the 'Protect College Sports Act' - We discuss what's in the bill, what's maybe good, what's maybe bad. But bottom line, do we trust Washington to actually fix the system? Or will it just make for a whole 'nother set of unintended consequences with major college teams and conferences leaving the NCAA altogether?

Data center debate - The Wayne County Commission voted unanimously to override Executive Warren Evans's veto of $125 million in tax breaks for Google's proposed 1-gigawatt data center, "Project Cannoli," in Van Buren Township. We talk about the public pushback against data centers, local municipal moratoriums (including on Devon voted for in Dearborn), and the widening disconnect between elected officials, technology leaders, and the community.
