As we race toward Election Day, “Behind the Headlines” looks at some of the county races being decided by voters, including county mayor, county sheriff and others.

Behind the Headlines is hosted by The Daily Memphian’s CEO Eric Barnes. Joining him recently were journalists Kailynn Johnson from The Memphis Flyer, Katherine Burgess from MLK50, and Laura Testino and Samuel Hardiman, both from The Daily Memphian. 

Also, on “The Sidebar” Rachel Knox, senior program officer for arts & culture for the Hyde Family Foundation, talks about some of the arts institutions the foundations supports, and the role of the arts on the city.

And on the Grizzlies Podcast, Chris Herrington and Drew Hill discuss the importance of deciding who will be on the roster at the beginning of training camp.
