Summary
Hour 2 - Good Thursday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: It was reported that Hollywood insiders fear the city is turning into the next Detroit. Movie and TV productions are talking their business to other, more attractive locations with fewer rules and better tax rates. In response to this, Adam Schiff and other lawmakers want to give Hollywood a federal tax subsidy. Nick plays audio from Rob Lowe talking about filming in other cities and countries, and how it's cheaper to film there versus Hollywood. Officials in Kansas City, Missouri, are preparing to equip some public buses with facial recognition cameras capable of detecting whether a passenger appears on a list of banned riders or missing persons.
