This week on Between the Headlines, Zack Plair and David Chism dig into two big local stories — one bizarre, one contentious. First, they unpack the tale of a live World War II-era hand grenade that wound up at the Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office (yes, really). Then, the hosts turn to Columbus City Council’s unanimous rejection of the so-called “Safe Solicitation Act,” a state law aimed at regulating panhandling. The discussion ranges from free speech to compassion to public safety — and what communities like ours can realistically do when faced with complex social challenges.
From grenades to government, it’s a wide-ranging look at the issues shaping life in Columbus and the Golden Triangle.
