🎭 Columbus buzzes with festivals, music and art this weekend. Becktoberfest at Parsons North Brewing tops the list alongside the Grandview Hop and Festival for Good on Saturday.

💰 Ohio slashes unclaimed funds wait time from months to weeks. The state's Unclaimed Funds Division revamped its website and processing system, allowing 20% of claims to be processed in just two weeks instead of 90-100 days. They've also raised the threshold requiring notarized documents from $1,000 to $3,000. Division Superintendent Akil Hardy hopes to implement data-sharing with other state agencies to further streamline the process. Meanwhile, Ohio law changed to only hold unclaimed funds for 10 years instead of indefinitely, with $1 billion earmarked for sports facilities including $600 million for a new Browns stadium.
🍜 Columbus welcomes Hey Broth, a hot new Asian street food spot. The restaurant, opened by local restaurateur Roy Xu, features broth-based dishes made with 32 ingredients cooked for hours.

Priced at $14.95-$16.95 per pound, meals take just five minutes to prepare and can be customized with various toppings and sauces. Hey Broth is open six days a week at 1810 W. Henderson Rd., closed only on Tuesdays.
