1:00:57 minutes (55.8 MB)

Tonight on the show, we speed through a lot in 61 minutes.

Musical Political Chairs:
- The big names in the running to replace former Congressman Steve Stivers. 14 Candidates - 12 Republicans, 2 Democrats, 1 Primary, 1 Special Election. As if Upper Arlington didn't need another Election in 2021, they've got two more.
- The possible names to replace former Franklin County Commissioner Marilyn Brown, and the person appointed temporarily to fill in the vacated seat.

COVID-19:
- The End of the Shutdown is Here. On June 2, 2021 - ALL Health Orders issued by the State of Ohio will cease to be. It will be up to businesses to decide whether or not people wear masks.
- Ohio Vax A Million - http://www.ohiovaxamillion.com. What it is? And why you CAN'T remain anonymous, and how many people will have their lives change?
- The COVID Cancel Bug claimed another major casualty on May 20 - Red, White, & Boom (and as of the posting of this show - Summer Jam West was also cancelled last week, as well). And why (Hublin) the Suburbs (Upper Arlington) have moved on (Whiteholdsburg) from Boom (New Albany), and are planning on doing the Fourth anyway (more on that in Show # 383, which will drop in five weeks).

The Weekend Warrior:
- The Field of Heroes in Westerville will honor the Tuskegee Airmen and Minorities in the Military on Memorial Day Weekend.
- La Boheme at 400.
- Actors' Theatre's season of "Changes" kicks off with "Much Ado About Nothing", followed by "The African Shakespeare Company presents Richard III" (about a Black Theatre troupe being silenced in the 1820s), then "Eurydice", and ending with "The Secret Garden" (a collaboration with Columbus Children's Theatre).
- The Drexel re-opens its doors on May 27.
- The Asian Festival goes virtual Memorial Day Weekend.
- Gallery Hop returns in person to the Short North.
- The Memorial Tournament returns to Muirfield, with fans.

1:00:10 minutes (55.1 MB)

Tonight on the Show, we bid farewell to the year that really wasn't. 2020, a year that was lost. COVID-19. Systemic Racism. A heated Presidential Election. Here at home, the Crew won The Cup, House Bill 6 forced a switch in Leadership in the State Legislature, and the most violent year in Columbus.
