WYPR: Maryland Morning with Sheilah Kast Podcast show

Summary: It became clear late last week that the Sparrows Point steel mill will not re-open, and the jobs it provided will not return. We talk with one of the thousands of unemployed steel workers, and with Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz about what the county plans to do to retrain and support the laid-off workers. Then, Sherban Young has received national attention for his knack for crafting mystery capers. We'll ask the Ellicott City author to drop some clues about his latest works. And theater critic J. Wynn Rousuck reviews the Baltimore Annex Theater's production of "UBIK," a science fiction drama adapted from a Philip K. Dick novel. Plus, Tom Hall talks with beer aficionado Rob Kasper about the best winter brews.
