City Cast DC

De: City Cast
  • Resumen

  • City Cast is the daily, local audio companion you knew DC needed. Washingtonians are gritty, proud, and resilient — necessary qualities for a community facing issues that range from an affordability crisis to the fight for statehood to the movement for racial justice… and useful qualities for a region full of whip-smart people, dynamic culture, and constant change. Washingtonians are deeply passionate about our city, whose story is still being written, and City Cast DC is here to tell it. Every weekday morning, our hosts Michael Schaffer and Bridget Todd will engage people from all over the eight wards in conversation about DC’s crises and its beauty, both literal and figurative. It’ll have the feel of eavesdropping on an energetic and informative coffee shop chat, except that with City Cast DC, consider this your official invitation to listen in.

  • A Plan to Make Streateries Permanent
    Aug 14 2024
    Streateries were a feature of the pandemic. Four years on, they’re still with us — and not everyone is happy. There’s an ongoing quarrel over the outdoor dining installations in Georgetown, where a lot of locals would prefer to get some scarce parking back. Last year, we talked to Joe Sternlieb and Faith Broderick from Georgetown’s Business Improvement District about their thinking on making streateries permanent. Take a listen.
