* Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan (Twitter @MayorMikeDuggan) joins M.L. Elrick (Twitter @elrick/Facebook ML ELRICK/Instagram ml_elrick), Marc Fellhauer (Twitter @MarcFell) and Shawn Windsor (Twitter @ShawnWindsor). Matt Jennings (Twitter @MattRJennings) gives a short but meaningful lesson, while Joey Zuver tries not to get caught napping at the back of the classroom.* THE STRAIGHT DOPE:  ML wrote one of the longest profiles in recent Detroit journalism history. The subject of that tome, Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, dials in to answer whatever fool questions ML didn’t already ask.* At ML’s urging, Duggan recounts the time he went toe-to-toe with his ol’ pal Bo Schembechler. And let’s just say these two Wolverines didn’t see eye-to-eye on plans for a new Detroit Tigers ballpark.* Marc asks Hizzoner for his take on what’s taking so long for the Ilitches to fulfill their promise to build The District Detroit. The mayor is sympathetic to the pizza people, but points out one strategic mistake they are still paying for.* Shawn goes deep with the mayor, discussing the divide between Detroit and its suburban neighbors.* Marc asks the mayor why he’s so tough on suburbanites when it comes to COVID-19. The boys also ask the former hospital CEO what he thinks it’s going to take to get people to take the shot that we’re all hoping will end this pandemic nightmare.* Duggan and Biden are buddies. So ML asks if there’s any chance the president-elect might throw a couple hundred million our way to help gussy up Detroit (and save taxpayers like him a few bucks in the process).* THE GREAT DEBATE: Should getting a coronavirus vaccination shot get you first shot at some primo opportunities?* GEEK OF THE WEEK: Shawn snipes at a fellow columnist, Marc takes on the airlines, and ML goes to war with a general who epitomizes the old crack that “military intelligence” is an oxymoron. * THIS WEEK IN SOFT HISTORY: Sometimes less is more — or maybe Dr. Matt “Kiddo” Jennings only had three beauties this week. Tune in and get schooled.* ROOM 7609: They know what boys like, and we know what our listeners like: NuWave Christmas tunes! So we welcome The Waitresses into the NuWave suite to perform “Christmas Wrapping”* FIRST AMENDMENT TIME: Boy, did our listeners have a lot to say this week!
