Stateside: Friday, April 22, 2022

Then, we discussed upcycling plastic waste with a University of Michigan researcher. Plus, a Michigan filmmaker dished on his recent film "Monty and Rose" that follows a loveable pair of piping plovers. To wrap up, April Baer gets into the nitty gritty of Michigan's tick season.
