Welcome to Friday! Lions fans everywhere are a little slow today, and so are we after the late night win. 01:27 - Devon and Jer talk about the win, why the Lions are going to spoil some teams fun, and how the tables have turned. Stock in blue Kool-Aid is up. 05:03 - Devon, Jer and Engineer Randy previewed The Godfrey Hotel and rooftop I/O lounge last night in Detroit's Corktown, on Michigan Ave. just east of Trumbull. Lots of thoughts and takes. There's also excitement about The Hamilton, not ready yet but a steakhouse we're told by the same people who do Leila and The Phoenecian, both well regarded restaurants.  13:13 - Jer went to a travel industry event with Travel America and came away with some thoughts. One, Metro Detroit is a far bigger destination for travel than some local I think know; and that it's The Henry Ford / Greenfield Village that is the top tourism draw in the area.  15:42 - A sidebar on that converstaion is that there was a whole panel on autonomous vehicles and the like. Not said at this
