We review some of the major news stories of the week with listener calls and our expert panel. We discuss Mayor-elect Michelle Wu's plan to address the situation around Mass. and Cass, where we are with schools and COVID, and what the recent troubling stories involving toxic culture in and around youth sports tell us about where we are as a society. This week, we're joined by former Boston City Councilor Tito Jackson, now CEO of Verdant Medical, and Charlie Chieppo, senior fellow at the Pioneer Institute and a principal at Chieppo Strategies.

This program aired on November 12, 2021.
