It's hard to imagine a politics and policy debate in Michigan that experienced the kind of whiplash in public sentiment like that of same-sex marriage. In the span of about 15 years, Michiganders went from voting to ban gay marriage, to broadly supporting rights and marriage protections for LGBTQ couples. At the center of the national legal debate was also a couple from Michigan. Today we revisit that brief history on the week that same-sex marriage became federally protected law.

CORRECTION: A previous version of this podcast said voters approved the same-sex marriage ban in 2004 by 85%. That was a transposed number, and incorrect. Voters banned gay marriage by about 58%.
