As whitefish numbers decline in lakes Michigan and Huron, researchers are hoping to get them to spawn in rivers for the first time in about a century. They're using what is basically a waterslide to help.
We catch up with former U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow. The Michigan Democrat is a private citizen now, but not taking a backseat on matters of public policy.
The author Geraldine Brooks talks to us about grief. Her husband's sudden death in 2019 prompted a new memoir, "Memorial Days."
Plus, we get a little dose of Star Wars.
