On the Thursday edition of the show, we caught up with a few of our regular guests and took some time to have a deeper conversation about where our region is at. We began the program with an update on the Flagship Opportunity Zones by Brett Wiler, the FOZ Director of Capital Formation. Then Pete Natalie and Stephanie Lindenberger joined in a random conversation, including Pete’s upcoming trip to Italy and Erie’s efforts to catch up to our peers in economic development. Joel’s pastor, Brian Kelly from McLane Church, joined us in the third hour to provide some practical spiritual perspective of where our region is at and how we can be agents of good will.
