Current State #717 | March 7, 2016

Today on Current State: We talk with Rick Pluta of the Michigan Public Radio Network and Nancy Kaffer of the Detroit News about the presidential debates in Michigan and tomorrow's primary elections; a new documentary film examines the history and humor of farts; Rep. Tom Barrett discusses the new non-profit he's formed with Sen. David Knezek to improve services for Michigan veterans; and Current Sports host Al Martin talks about the just-ended Big Ten women's basketball tournament and the men's tournament this week. Our guest host is WKAR's Scott Pohl.
