Goodbye Ja Morant, World Cup Fever, Hockey in Memphis & The City's Future | WIA - Ep08
Where It’s At – Episode 08 | Memphis is standing at a crossroads. With the excitement of the World Cup, major private investment, new entertainment ventures, and a changing sports landscape, the city has an opportunity to redefine its future—but only if vision, leadership, and execution come together. Hosted by J.R. Moore, Alex Rasmussen, and Greg Graber, Episode 08 takes a look at where Memphis has been, where it's headed, and what it will take to capitalize on this moment. Goodbye to Ja Morant: The End of an Era The guys open the show by reflecting on the end of the Ja Morant era following his trade to Portland. Rather than debating the move, they celebrate one of the most electrifying players in franchise history—from Rookie of the Year and unforgettable highlight plays to playoff heroics, Memphis swagger, and the heartbreaking off-court issues that ultimately derailed what once looked like a championship window. The discussion ends with one question every Grizzlies fan has to answer: Was Ja Morant the greatest Grizzly ever, the most talented, or the biggest "what if" in Memphis sports history? World Cup Fever & What Memphis Can Learn As the World Cup captures the world's attention, the hosts discuss the tournament's biggest surprises, standout players, and why soccer has finally become a mainstream American sport. More importantly, they explore what Memphis can learn from successful host cities and how global events can reshape a city's reputation and economy. Politics, Leadership & Memphis' Future From recent elections in New York City to conversations surrounding local leadership in Memphis, the crew examines how policy decisions shape cities over time. They discuss accountability, civic leadership, and why strong leadership matters just as much as strong ideas. Can Memphis Become a Hockey City? Alex shares exciting updates on the Mid-South Monarchs and his vision for bringing professional hockey back to Memphis. The conversation expands beyond the rink into creating affordable family entertainment, building community, and developing a long-term destination that can energize the city for years to come. Country Club: Where the South Comes to Dance The team provides an update on Country Club, a new entertainment concept designed to become a true Memphis destination. With live music, dancing, VIP experiences, and a vision inspired by—but not copied from—cities like Nashville, the discussion centers on why Memphis should build its own identity instead of chasing someone else's. Justin's Memphis Minute & A New Look at the Bluff City Justin highlights upcoming concerts, restaurants, and events happening around town before the conversation turns to Peter Santenello's nationally recognized Memphis documentary. The hosts discuss what the series got right, what it overlooked, and why authentic storytelling matters for a city that too often finds itself defined by headlines instead of its people. From sports and entertainment to leadership and city-building, Episode 08 explores what could be one of the most important chapters in Memphis' future. The opportunities are real—the question is whether the city is ready to seize them. 🎙️ Where It's At is your home for honest conversations about Memphis culture, sports, business, music, and the people shaping the future of the 901.

State Takes Over Memphis Schools, Grizzlies to Nashville? Media, Conspiracies, & More | WIA - Ep07
Where It’s At – Episode 07 dives into one of the biggest questions facing Memphis today: Who’s actually in control of the city’s future? Hosted by J.R. Moore, Alex Rasmussen, and Greg Graber, this episode explores the growing tension between local identity and outside influence—from the NBA and state government to national media narratives and public perception. Grizzlies in Nashville: Expansion or Warning Sign?The episode opens with a heated discussion around Adam Silver floating the possibility of NBA games in Nashville. Is this really about “growing the market,” or is it a quiet test run for something bigger? The hosts break down what Nashville’s corporate power and economic growth could mean for Memphis—and whether the Grizzlies could eventually become vulnerable to relocation conversations down the line. Schools, State Control & Leadership VacuumsAlex leads a deeper conversation about state involvement in Memphis schools and the broader issue of local control. The debate isn’t just political—it’s about competence, outcomes, and what happens when leadership gaps invite outside intervention. Are these systems actually being fixed, or is responsibility simply shifting hands? Memphis Narrative vs. Memphis RealityGreg examines how Memphis is portrayed nationally versus what people actually experience. From television shows casually using Memphis as a crime punchline, to social profiling experiments, to conversations about exclusivity and access in sports and entertainment, the hosts unpack how perception layers shape the city’s reputation—often more powerfully than reality itself. Conspiracy Corner: Weather, Tornadoes & DistrustThe guys head into conspiracy territory with discussions around weather modification theories, tornado patterns, and why distrust in institutions fuels modern speculation. The segment becomes less about conspiracies themselves—and more about why people gravitate toward explanations that feel emotionally satisfying in uncertain times. One Night at Minglewood HallThe episode closes with Greg recounting a night at Minglewood Hall that perfectly captures Memphis energy: unpredictable, chaotic, raw, and impossible to replicate anywhere else. It becomes a larger reflection on why some people fall in love with Memphis—and why others can’t wait to leave. At its core, Episode 07 is about power, perception, and identity. Memphis isn’t just battling one issue—it’s navigating thousands of small pressures pulling at what the city is, and what it could become. 🎙️ Where It’s At continues to bring honest conversations about Memphis culture, sports, business, and the forces shaping the future of the 901.

Is Memphis Back or Being Taken Over? Crime Down 43%, Trump Visit & Basketball Crisis | WIA - Ep06
Where It’s At – Episode 06 asks one big question: Is Memphis back?Hosted by J.R. Moore, Alex Rasmussen, and Greg Graber, this episode dives into one of the most pivotal moments the city has faced in years—where crime is dropping, national attention is rising, and Memphis finds itself at the center of conversations that stretch far beyond the 901. Memphis Safe Task Force: Turnaround or Takeover?The episode opens with a breakdown of the massive federal and local crime initiative reshaping the city. With thousands of arrests, over a thousand guns seized, and crime reportedly down more than 40%, the momentum is undeniable. But the real debate begins: Is this a true turnaround for Memphis—or a federal takeover? The hosts tackle the tough question—what are you willing to trade for safety? Trump Visits Memphis: Spotlight or Strategy?With President Donald Trump visiting Memphis and highlighting the city’s crime crackdown, Memphis is suddenly back in the national spotlight. The crew discusses whether this attention is meaningful progress—or if the city is being used as a political talking point. March Madness & Memphis Basketball IdentityAs the NCAA Tournament unfolds, Memphis finds itself on the outside looking in. Greg shares insights from being on the ground at March Madness, while the group confronts a hard truth: Memphis is a basketball city without a true contender right now. From transfer portal chaos to lack of roster continuity, the question becomes—has modern college basketball broken Memphis’ identity? Is Memphis Back?The episode closes with a high-level debate on the city’s future. On one hand: declining crime, cultural strength, and renewed attention make Memphis feel investable again. On the other: questions remain about sustainability, leadership, and long-term perception. If this momentum continues, what does Memphis look like in three years? From street-level reality to national headlines, Episode 06 captures a city at a crossroads—full of potential, tension, and possibility.
