As Maryland prepares to go on its pollution diet, certain jurisdictions are looking into fees to help pay for the cost of reducing stormwater runoff. But critics say it’s not the right time for a regressive tax. We talk with an Anne Arundel councilman who’s proposing a measure there.  Then - WYPR managing editor for news Sunni Khalid on what he learned about how Marylanders deal with death and remembrance after spending weeks reporting the series “Last Rites.” And - where have all the critics gone? Tom Hall talks about the state of film criticism with National Society of Film Critics chairman David Sterritt, Maryland Film Festival Director Jed Dietz, and filmmaker John Waters.
