This week on Hear Cincinnati, host Maxim Alter, digital reporter Lucy May, digital editor Meghan Wesley and 9 On Your Side anchor Katherine Nero discuss Fiona's first birthday, Olympic skier Nick Goepper's struggle with depression, the trial of gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, how to test your implicit biases, a young girl who doesn't let being deaf stop her from wrestling, wealthy millennials and more. 

Maxim then talks with government and politics reporter Amanda Seitz about the ongoing saga of FC Cincinnati's bid to join Major League Soccer and its latest attempts to potentially build a stadium in the West End. 

Then, investigative reporter Hillary Lake breaks down how local adult care centers are inspected -- and why some workers could be getting away with abuse.
