COVID ‘Motoring Along At A Level Of Suck’ In Michigan, Ford Layoffs & Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum

You are here: Home / Podcasts / COVID ‘Motoring Along At A Level Of Suck’ In Michigan, Ford Layoffs & Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum

Sep 1, 2020 by Sven Gustafson

Rumors are swirling that high-school football could once again be on this fall, now that the Michigan High School Athletic Association has said they’ll follow other states’ examples if Gov. Gretchen Whitmer amends an executive order. Plus, President Trump said he spoke with the B1G commissioner about “immediately” starting the fall football season, because a) of course he did and b) there’s nothing else really going on right now that’s worthy of the attention of the president of the United States.

FOOTBALL!

Had a very productive conversation with Kevin Warren, Commissioner of the Big Ten Conference, about immediately starting up Big Ten football. Would be good (great!) for everyone – Players, Fans, Country. On the one yard line!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 1, 2020

Also, gyms and movie theaters are rumored to get a reprieve and could reopen, though state health officials are staying mum on the topic. All this as COVID-19 cases plateau, “motoring along at a level of suck” in Michigan, as Jer put it.

Also on today’s show:

  • Ford may be getting ready to cut 1,000 North American white-collar jobs
  • Ford and GM are officially out of the coronavirus ventilator manufacturing game
  • We discuss Michigan’s chances of getting a stake in the U.S. Space Force game
  • And Jer speaks with Jeremy Yagoda, owner of Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum in Farmington Hills, about their GoFundMe effort to survive the pandemic
