Sad news today. The man behind Mudgie’s in Corktown— and a big advocate for small business in Detroit — has died. Greg Mudge was 46. He will be missed.
On the podcast Friday we talked about @matisdeli in Dearborn. I promised pictures on Instagram. Here they are. There’s a lot of tasty sandwiches to be had in these walls. Also love the look of the place. Be sure to listen for our favorites. Of course, for full transparency, this is *not* sponsored. We are funded by our members on Patreon. We do take some underwriting but when we do we clearly label it. This is just a sandwich shop Dev has enjoyed for years and wanted the rest of us to try so we did and it was solid. We only highlight and talk about places we have tried. Thanks to the people who have messaged with ideas of other Sammy places to try. Always taking suggestions! #dailydetroit #dearborn #sandwich #igersdetroit #scenefromdetroit #metrodetroit #deli
I’m obsessed with cool older signs. Found these in downtown Allen Park this weekend. Some are connected to active businesses, which is even better. A friend of the pod tells me the bike shop, Roll Model (sales and service sign in slide three), does a nice job. Sometimes for a little vacation it’s fun to post the things you might not have discovered just a few miles from where you always go. I’ll be posting some pics of all that this weekend. #oldsigns #igersdetroit #allenpark #waynecounty #dailydetroit #rockinthesuburbs #midcentury
A studio is kinda like a beloved car or bike. Sure, it can be fresh and new and there’s excitement in that. But it’s the people and the memories created with it that fill the soul. We’ve had some awesome guests in - including a couple of you followers - but tonight we did an on-air, no holds barred Michigan canned cocktail tasting. Two brands were awesome, one was… yeah. But it’s the process that is the joy. Speaking of joy, studio dog Gabby got to see three of her uncles she usually sees one at a time all at once! And that is such a priceless face where I had to share this one even if it was a bit framed funny. #podcastersofinstagram #dailydetroit #dog #igersdetroit #detroitpodcast #313 #scenefromdetroit #hazenpingree #depictthed
Is there anything more Detroity than Aretha on a Vernors bottle in front of a classic car? Spotted this at the Detroit Historical Museum. It’s by Bill Morrison who has done work for The Simpsons, Disney and MAD Magazine. He’s from Lincoln Park. You’ll find this neat little piece in the Music Lab just to the right off the main front area that has the big old Tiger Stadium sign. Look for the sparkly Aretha stuff. #igersdetroit #aretha #vernors #art #dailydetroit #drawing #scenefromdetroit #depictthed

Big city vibes. It was my birthday weekend, and as someone who has been around downtown Detroit since the 1980s when as a kid when my dad would paint and work on offices, I’ve seen a lot of change. But definitely had New York vibes this weekend, between the construction on the Hudson’s block, the crowds of people, and the noisy streets. #DailyDetroit #igersdetroit #downtown #313 #citylife #architecture #patio #depictthed #scenefromdetroit
What a magical alley… but wait, there’s more! On today’s podcast we talked about some of our favorite newer places around town. @spotlitedetroit is one of them. So well executed on the inside and has a great vibe between the venue, the record shop, the coffee and the bar. Definitely worth checking out - daytime chill vibe, evening more upbeat and party. Also, who knew but you can now do a little bar crawl down Beaufait of all streets! Brewery Faison is down the street. It ends at Jefferson near Belle Isle, so just think of the possibilities. I know some of our listeners think we’re crazy, but there’s a lot to love on the east side. #dailydetroit #igersdetroit #dj #venue #techno #house #bar #scenefromdetroit #latergram #sunflare #depictthed #streetart #records
Even at night the place feels alive. This is where we make the show now. It’s a converted 1922 garage in the city that is now the base of operations where we can get together and work. Thanks to our members on @patreon who make the podcast possible. Some also went over and above donating art they created like that custom sign. It actually has dimension, with each layer sitting on another giving it depth and #texture. Each and every piece in here has a story and was sourced through hours of driving, sifting and making things work. There was also a lot of cleanup and sound work to make the show still live up to the audio standards and fortunately.. it still does. Obviously if you have story or guest ideas you can always message us. If you didn’t know that a podcast was our main thing, we do it daily on Apple, Spotify or wherever fine shows are found. #podcastersofinstagram #studio #dailydetroit #igersdetroit #scenefromdetroit #depictthed #interiordesign
Our show is made up of awesome people. One of them is Engineer Randy! 🏳️‍🌈 He’s been great in making sure the show sounds clear and big. Often with whatever gear and challenging conditions. Over the pandemic he set it up so everyone could sound as close to as if they’re in studio as possible. #Podcastersofinstagram #dailydetroit
Beautiful murals are going up near our studio in Detroit's North End, thanks to @blkoutwalls / @blkoutwallsfest. This is just a sample of the murals in progress. For instance, there's one honoring J Dilla. Be sure to check these out as they finish up this weekend. If you haven't heard, BLKOUT Walls Mural Festival is a biannual, family-friendly event. Over the course of seven days, the all Black-produced project is producing about 20 murals. Their goal is that this initial festival will seed arts-based economic development in the North End community. And if you don't know the North End, that's (approximately) north of East Grand Boulevard, east of Woodward, west of I-75 and south of Highland Park. It was named that because it was the North End of the city of Detroit when it was annexed from Hamtramck Township in 1891. #DailyDetroit #Detroit #313 #IgersDetroit #ScenefromDetroit #DepictTheD #StreetArt #Festival #Mural #MuralArt
