Saginaw investigators identify suspects in all 9 of city’s homicides this year
Nine people have lost their lives to violence in Saginaw so far this year, eight from gunfire. Grim as those facts are, there is a silver lining: all nine investigations have led to suspects being identified, seven of whom are criminally charged.
Tired of political talk? Let's talk about something yummy instead, oatmeal cream pies!
Good morning Saginaw! Butter Me Up Bakery has a new snack to offer! Our oatmeal cream pies are simply amazing... We start with two big 2oz oatmeal cookies and stuff a thick layer of Greta's fabulous buttercream frosting between them!
We bake every order fresh, so we do have a 24 hour lead time, but these are definitely worth the wait!
We offer these, and many more cookies and other baked goods at Buttermeupbakery.com, come take a look :)
Again with the misinformation from Art
So Monday's show Art decides to start Focus (because the guest he was supposed to have didn't show) with his "scary" issues. First off, a math professor teaching fractions to calculus students "because the standards have fallen so low. How does a student get into a calculus class without learning fractions?" Well, Art, if you had read farther than the first three paragraphs, you would have found the answer. And maybe if you looked at a different source than New York Post, which appears to be your sole source for information and is your primary problem, you would have found that the issue is UC Berkeley admit students without requiring taking SAT and ACT tests.

And then he moves on to the really serious issues affecting the US, the mayor of New York by using the New York Post calling Mamdani "Mayor Klutz". Does Art really believe the NY Post has any intention of being objective? In fact, Art was reading a piece in the Opinion by the Editorial Board. You know, the board that maintains some anonymity so they don't have to bear any responsibility. Here's what the people who live in the city feel about Mamdani (hardly what you would call a klutz, unlike the guy who thinks he's running the Iran War).

And then to finish the segment (blissfully this was on 15 minutes of nonsense today), Art has to get his trans-panic out just to maintain his bona fides. And does this by bringing up some the WNBA and some incident where two people were asked to cover up their XX/XY t-shirts. The fans "assumes a woman sitting courtside in a "Protect Trans Rights" t-shirt, who was featured on the video board earlier in the game, made a fuss with security, who then sided with that fan" but what Art fails to mention is the fans "did see her (the person with the Protect T) jacket was zipped up late in the game, no longer displaying the trans messaging." so it appears both were told to stop displaying. BTW, Art, if we have a problem saying what a woman is, why don't you get Jonathan Dent to tell us.
"Something's gotta give", but it should be you, Art.
Broke college student
I’m a broke college student looking for a serving job in Saginaw, Mi. Anyone know of good restaurants/food service places that are worth checking out? I’m trying to steer away from the 2 mile radius from campus to avoid fellow opps🫠 Thanks! :)
So here's a recommendation and dare for Art Lewis and his 'Open Phone' segments
The 8/10 episode of Open Phones (with the contributions of the idiot Sean from Bay City and the sexually insecure Scott from Saginaw) was a gem. With Sean calling El-Sayed an Islamist, previously calling Abdul a communist, showing his ignorance of religion versus theocracy.
And then Scott, who along with Art working hard to turn Abdul from a Democrat into a Social Democrat without providing any evidence, other than what is absolutely hearsay from right-wing sources akin to Fox News. Even asking Amos O'Neal what he thinks about "Democratic Socialist within your party". WTF!!! The only reason any Democratic Socialist runs under the Democratic ticket is because EVERYONE (except Art) realizes running as a third party (which Art once again talked about on 8/11) is a lost cause and will remain so until we are given something like Ranked Choice Voting.
My recommendation: For a region, according to Art, which has so much going on that one can't attend all the activities that are available in the region, stop Open Phones and make your two and a half hours discussing with the people running all those activities. If he can't or won't do that then here's the
dare: Debate Abdul face to face and find out what he really thinks instead of the BS Sean and Scott keep feeding him and his audience.
And whooo-wee, how about 8/14?!?!?! Two hours of absolute nonsense. But we can discuss the host's (and caller's) trans panic some other day.
Best Dentist?
Hello all! Growing up, I had Medicaid so my pick of dentists was always limited. Now I have a job with good dental insurance and was looking to upgrade dentists. Any recommendations?
Best Food in Saginaw?
Heading to Saginaw for a 2 night work trip today. Looking for restaurant recommendations! Probably want something more casual tonight; sit at a bar, get a beer and good food that doesn’t wreck my stomach. Tomorrow might be up for something nicer. Thanks!

Moving to Saginaw from the Thumb in January, advice?
I have not spent much time in Saginaw at all. What are the places/areas to avoid, the places to embrace, and what would be good to know before moving in?
Any general advice to a new family would be great, especially in regards to housing for a family of 5. Thanks.

Saginaw YMCA
Hey guys! Moved to the area about a month or so ago and was curious about the ymca and the fitness classes they offer? Does anyone have any feedback on them? Also are they free if you have a membership if so do you just show up to the classes or need to bring anything? I’m having a hard time finding the classes online. Thanks :)
