On today's Stateside, we heard about the state's report on the economic challenges facing rural Michiganders. The Office of Rural Prosperity is formulating plans to help grow rural communities and economies. Then, two investigative reporters shared how the FBI used an informant in the Whitmer kidnapping cases. Recently released audio has some concerned about potential entrapment. Closing out the show, we spoke with a former U of M executive associate athletic director and mentor to many famous athletes. He joined us to talk about his new book, Stay Sane in an Insane World.
