The AM/DM podcast: Spotlight on a mini Memphis
At 516 Tillman St. in Binghampton, there’s a mini Memphis. It’s got a backdrop of the Hernando DeSoto Bridge, a carpet river and storefronts representing some of the city’s largest organizations: AutoZone, International Paper, First Horizon, FedEx and University of Tennesse Health Science Center.
It’s the Junior Achievement of Memphis and the Mid-South’s Wang Experiential Learning Center, where fifth- and sixth-graders get to explore future careers and #adulting.
Today, writer John Klyce joins us to talk about JA Biztown, and why it’s so important.
