On Friday’s Afternoon Shift we talk about a variety of new ideas. First we’ll delve into the world of clemency hearings through the story of Adolfo Davis. Our reporter was one of the first ever permitted to record a clemency hearing and she’ll play the tape. Later we’ll talk with our regular guests from Insight Labs about the glut of “idea conferences.” Are they doing any good? Alison Cuddy joins us with new ideas for the weekend. And sportswriter Rick Morrissey talks about the ideas behind Ozzie Guillen’s coaching style.
