Issues & Ale - It’s Just Politics: Year in Review

Zingerman's Greyline

Free

07:00 PM - 09:00 PM on Wed, 10 Dec 2025

It’s been a year… it seems like longer. We’ve seen the first 10 months of the second Trump administration, the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, and political games and gamesmanship in Lansing.
Join us at our next Issues & Ale, as we take a look back... and a look forward at what's to come in Michigan in 2026 (hint: one of the largest elections in recent state history).
Join Michigan Public's It's Just Politics team of Zoe Clark and Rick Pluta, and their expert political panel, as they discuss what’s happened - and what’s on the horizon… and take your questions!
Attend in person or watch online! Admission is free, but in-person space is limited so advance registration is needed.
Issues and Ale is an event series from Michigan Public designed to engage people in conversations about important issues facing Michigan in an informal atmosphere. Your questions are always welcome.

Ira Glass, one of America’s most influential storytellers, returns to Ann Arbor for his fifth A2SF appearance for an evening filled with insight, creativity, and unforgettable moments. As the creator and host of This American Life, the award-winning public radio program heard by more than 5 million listeners each week, Glass has shaped how a generation thinks about narrative and the power of everyday stories.
In this special A2SF appearance, Glass blends live storytelling with audio clips, music, video, and audience Q&A to share how he builds a story from the ground up. He reflects on what inspires him, how challenges evolve into breakthroughs, and what he has learned from a life devoted to curiosity and craft.
Under his leadership, This American Life has earned nine Peabody Awards, the first Pulitzer Prize for audio journalism, and induction to the Library of Congress. His programs were also ranked among Time magazine’s 100 Best Podcasts of All Time.
