On this week's episode, we talk about the state of Metro's finances with deputy comptroller Jason Mumpower and The Tennessean's Metro reporter Yihyun Jeong. 

They discuss the ins-and-out of this ongoing issue that must be addressed before the early part of 2020 or face the comptroller's office taking over. They also delve into calls for making changes to Nashville's financially distressed water department, which officials say will require a multi-year rate hike.  

We also break down a recent opinion from Tennessee Attorney General Herbert Slatery regarding an opinion related to Rep. David Byrd, who is facing allegations of sexual assault from three women dating back to the 1980s.
