Description

Two massive headlines dropped this week, with the resignation of Metro’s chief development officer Bob Mendes and the ethical complaint filed against Fair Board chair Jasper Hendricks alleging he’s been colluding with Bristol Motor Speedway to bring NASCAR to the Nashville Fairgrounds. Contributor Nicole Williams joins host Marie Cecile Anderson and executive producer Whitney Pastorek to dig deeper into those stories, the weapon detection systems being installed in Metro Nashville public middle schools, and more. Plus, there’s too much going on this weekend!
