GPB News launches Georgia in Play; inaugural show discusses Music Midtown, Peach Jam and more

This week on Georgia in Play, host Leah Fleming talks Music Midtown, the Macon Film Festival, "Try That in a Small Town", and Georgia's up-and-coming musical talent. 'In play.' It’s a phrase you often hear relating to Georgia’s political scene, especially since the 2020 election turned a reliably red state purple. But aside from politics, Georgia is in play for several other reasons. Ethnic and racial diversity, housing, sports, arts & culture, science and health are all topics that are interesting not just to Georgians, but a national audience is curious about what’s happening in the state as well. That’s what this show is about, a daily look at all the ways Georgia matters.
