Mike Griffin
Peter Schorsch hunkers down with Tampa businessman Mike Griffin, a market leader and senior vice president for the Tampa office of Savills North America, a full-service real estate business. Griffin was recently appointed to the University of South Florida Board of Trustees and previously served on the Port Tampa Bay Board of Directors and as chair of the Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce. Griffin opens up about his hometown’s response to the COVID-19 crisis, lamenting a lack of local cooperation. Recorded before Hillsborough County approved a safer at home order, Griffin applauds Tampa Mayor Jane Castor’s leadership on trying to keep folks home to avoid the spread of the virus. While Griffin admits many people are following social distancing recommendations, he talks about the necessity of an order to get the “idiots” to follow suit. And what the heck is up with people hoarding toilet paper? Griffin also talks Tiger King with Peter, but don’t worry, there aren’t any spoilers. Special Guest: Mike Griffin.
