Episode Notes My guests include Sarah Houston, aka the Water Warrior and Executive Director of Protect Our Aquifer. For many, including myself do not understand the xAI supercomputer project. Lately, there has been some conversation and doubt about the proposed location, and why the Boxtown community feels left out of the process. She explains why. Next, the former Executive Director of the Landers Center in Southaven was recently fired after 14 years but the reason raises some interesting questions. Todd Mastry says it was because he was booking too many Black artists and does not like the crowds they draw from Memphis. These statements came from the CVB and members of the Board of Supervisors. He has since filed a lawsuit claiming his civil rights were violated and it would be illegal under the Civil Rights Act. Daily Memphian reporter Rob Moore broke the story and joins me to discuss. Finally, it’s not a secret that there is an abundance of musical talent in our city. Recently, an organization you may be familiar with called the Grammys took note. They honored one of our very own with a major honor. Adrian Maclin, is recipient of the 2025 Music Educator award presented by the Recording Academy and the Grammy Foundation. The Cordova High School Choir Director joins me to talk about that honor and what makes him the most proudest about this recognition. That and more on air and online Monday, 6 pm on WYXR 91.7 FM.

Andrew Rankin, ESQ is a local Immigration Atty who is working with many in the Mid South who are very concerned about their future and what might happen to themselves and their families.
