From Old Church to Climbing Gym: St. Anthony's Totally Uncalled For Transformation

We explore the latest twist in the tale of closed St Anthony Church in Toledo. Saved from demolition to be a place for affordable housing and/or a community event space. The Lucas County Land Bank decided to ditch what the community wanted and went with the idea of converting the church into a climbing gym, a project proposed by a company known for a similar creation near Wildwood Metro Park. Why did the Land Bank ignore the community?

Our episode also looks at controversial decisions around chemical abortions and public schools. We'll dissect the Republican attorney generals' lawsuit in Texas aimed at removing FDA authorization of one abortion drug, the surprising argument used by Judge James Ho, and the latest from the US Supreme Court. Then, we'll address the controversy around State Senator Theresa Gavarone's presence at a school opening despite her support for universal vouchers and lack of support for adequate public school funding. All this and more awaits. Don't miss out!
