Daily Detroit Daily Detroit

The first wireless electric charging road in the United States - where, with the right equipment, you can drive on it and charge while moving - has opened in Detroit's Corktown.
Using technology by Electreon and deployed at Michigan Central, it seems only appropriate for this first quarter mile to be here.
Me and Norris Howard discuss the technology, the implications, the possibilities, the challenges and more in this single-topic episode of your Daily Detroit.
We're not sure if this will be the final form - this is still early days, and there's a lot to learn - but we can't help but think something important happened this week.

I know we promised fewer shows this week but Detroit never stops.
Danny Dichio was named the new head coach of Detroit City FC on Wednesday, taking over from Trevor James on the sidelines.
If you didn't know, James is moving to the role of Sporting Director for the USL Championship club.
Fletcher Sharpe and me share our first reactions and do some prognosticating as a major contract option deadline is Thursday.

Women make up a slight majority of our population - but in general, make up nowhere near that percentage of our elected leaders. Vote Run Lead Action hopes to change that through training, support resources and more. I caught up with their Founder and CEO, Erin Vilardi as well as their Michigan Director, Christine Maul at the Renaissance Center during their Run/51 Summit over the weekend.
