Each Friday, our panel of journalists dives into the week’s biggest headlines. Among our topics this week:
- With comparisons likening the city’s ballooning garbage fees to the pension debacle, leaders are moving money and talking rate hikes.
- Residents of Murray Hill want someone to pay for their neighborhood’s persistent stench.
- A man is charged in a 1985 Camden County murder, after the man originally imprisoned in the case was exonerated.
- The former Brunswick district attorney charged with interfering in the 2020 Ahmaud Arbery case finally appears in court.
- A new bill could ban pickleball and golf courses in state parks after an earlier development proposal was met with outrage.
Guests:
- Claire Goforth, attorney and investigative/political reporter at The Daily Dot.
- Renata DiGregorio, reporter at First Coast News.
- Anne Maxwell, investigative reporter at News4Jax.
- Dan Scanlan, reporter for WJCT News 89.9.
Then, a local theater collective brings holiday cheer to historic Five Points with their original production, Joy: The Ultimate Christmas Experience. The event features a Christmas market, live carolers, photos with Santa and, as promised, joy.
Guest:
- Lee Hamby, artistic director, Arts Collective Theatre.
