You can still use cash on the bus. After a proposal to move Knoxville Area Transit buses to an all-cashless system drew concern from some riders and transit advocates, KAT decided last week to continue accepting dollars and coins — at least for now. Scott and Jesse look at the cashless controversy on this week's episode. Also: A look at the closely watched race for state House District 18, where Republican incumbent Elaine Davis faces well-funded Democrat Bryan Goldberg; the Knoxville Police Department's "Tender Loving Care" approach to focused patrols in East Knoxville appears to be reducing violent crime; and UT Chancellor Donde Plowman announces she'll stay for another five years. Looking ahead, the guys preview election forums in the coming week, along with meetings of the school board and City Council.
