Hosts Adolph Mongo, Allan Lengel, and Jim Nardone talk with attorney Todd Perkins about his bid to become Detroit's next mayor.

Perkins spoke Saturday at Thomas Magee's bar in Eastern Market about a range of topics, including policing, crime, development, mental health issues, reparations, and the field of mayoral candidates—among them Detroit City Council President Mary Sheffield, whom he has criticized for her comments regarding her role on the board of the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy.
