A last-minute plea for more funding by Sheriff Tom Spangler ran into the cold hard facts of limited revenues last week as County Commission approved County Mayor Glenn Jacobs' budget with no changes. On this week's episode, Jesse and Scott take a look at why the county budget is so tight, and why it might not change any time soon. Also: Graduate student workers at the University of Tennessee are organizing for higher wages; the Three Rivers Market food co-op in North Knoxville faces a state shutdown over health code violations; and our monthly Power Poll find strong support among local leaders for the way UT has handled pro-Palestinian protests on campus. The guys also look ahead to the holiday-shortened week, which includes City Council making its own budget decisions.
