Episode 161 of the IT in the D podcast from our Podcast Detroit studios was a fun one, as it always is when we're joined by Vittoria from Hatch Detroit.  We also had the winner and one of the other finalists from their 2016 competition in-studio with us, and it's also always a good time hearing what people are doing to bring new and cool businesses downtown... Bird Bee: A lifestyle clothing boutique offering a mix of modern bohemian, vintage inspired and contemporary clothing, shoes, jewelry and accessories. Corbé: A ceramic design and manufacturing studio located in Detroit's North End that wants to open retail space. It makes handcrafted porcelain wares. Coriander Kitchen & Farm: Expansion of an urban farm and catering business into a brick-and-mortar café featuring casual, affordable, healthy food in a rustic environment on Detroit's far east side. Meta Physica Massage & Sauna: A wellness center offering therapeutic bodywork, full-spectrum infrared saunas, a raw juice bar, an herbal apothecary and health-inspired retail, meditation classes and community workshops. and of course, Hatch Detroit is at www.HatchDetroit.com IT in the D On the web: http://www.ITinTheD.com On Meetup: http://www.meetup.com/ITintheD/ On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/IT-in-D-91763 On Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/ITintheD On Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/ITintheD Podcast Detroit is at: On the web: http://www.podcastdetroit.com/ On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PodcastDetroit On Twitter: https://twitter.com/PodcastDetroit On Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/podcastdetroit

Episode 160 of the IT in the D podcast from the Podcast Detroit studios saw a lot of laughs and fun and some even faster talking than we normally see.  We had Mike, Jay, and Eric from Detroitcast in-studio with us talking about their daily show, and then Beth Rose called in to talk about the world of being an auctioneer and her recent win in an international auctioneer competition...

For episode 157, we were joined by Gary Baker and Foster Braun of the Internet Advisor show that airs on WJR (760AM) on Saturday afternoons (that you can hear us on this Saturday!) with podcast versions rolling on our Podcast Detroit site, as well as by Paul Kurtz from Pure Storage... We always have a great time chatting with Gary and Foster about radio, podcasting, the changes in the marketplace and media over the years, and just generally playing catch up...and tonight was no different.  Listen in as we chat about life on terrestrial radio over multiple decades, making the transition to podcasting, the challenges and opportunities presented by each, and more. And then stay tuned as we talked how Pure Storage is evolving into more than just flash storage as they look to continue growing and evolving as a company that's known for shaking things up and making older companies question their marketshare positions.

After the events of last week, and rather rapidly, we were lucky enough to get Eric Thomas, Calvin Moore, Billy Strawter, and Khary Frazier in-studio to talk about not just the events of the past week, but also the touchy topic of what it's actually like to be black in America today, as well as an amazing amount of historical reference and discussion about how we got here as a society... It was, quite simply, an amazing afternoon.  It was a long afternoon...we were in-studio for four and a half hours recording.  We're finishing up the files and getting them ready for publication...look for those later this afternoon.  So much great information, conversations, emotions...we couldn't be happier that this got pulled together, and we're looking forward to doing more of these sessions in the future. This is the full episode.

A fun, albeit shorter than normal episode with our friends from Daily Detroit, Detroit is Different and Social Coop Media.  From our upcoming event at Firebird Tavern and the next metro Detroit podcaster meetup the first week of August, we had a couple items of business to handle, but then we dove into the week's stories and events, as well as chatting with our guests about what they're doing, why they're doing it, and why you should care about what they're doing...
