A recent study placed Indiana near the bottom in the nation when it comes to access to trauma treatment. Nowhere does the study ring truer than in Northwest Indiana—a region with more than 800,000 residents but not a single trauma center. WBEZ’s Northwest Indiana reporter Michael Puente reports that there’s an effort to create one but it will not be easy. Then, blogger and The Interview Show host Mark Bazer shares ideas for the weekend in the latest installment of The Weekly Guide. And, Hank Sartin of Time Out Chicago joins Eight Forty-Eight to talk about the star-ridden action-comedy, Tower Heist and the new psychological thriller, Martha Marcy May Marlene, starring Elizabeth Olsen. And Yuri Lane joins Eight Forty-Eight as guest DJ this week and talks about his new show chronicling his journey, MeTube.
