- More on data centers please!
Your recent episode on data centers was unbelievably timely as we just learned of a proposal to put a data center on the edge of our 1 mile square town in PA. I had no idea what to expect before listening to this podcast. I’d love to hear Chuck’s thoughts as well.

Please please please hire an editor. I don’t mind a bit of chatter, 7 minutes of uninteresting chatter to start an episode is too much.
Apple Podcasts2Lowly intern boiUnited Statesa year ago - Abby leads the show
I really want to like this show more. Abby is a great host and has interesting guests on, but when Chuck is on the show I find it hard to listen beyond even their introductions. His vibe is just off and lacks adding substantial value to the show. He also rambles far too much about his personal life.
As a result, when he’s on I almost always move on from the episode.
However, when Chuck is not on the show, I always tune in to the entire episode!
Apple Podcasts2@kyleinphoenixUnited States3 years ago - Don’t “both sides” everything
Give credibility to conspiracy theories about the 15-minute city. You can’t both side everything
Apple Podcasts3Alessandro RigolonUnited States3 years ago - Crony-ism
Never underestimate the criminality of our local political structures. Graft is normalized and outright theft of public funds is ignored. Detroit water. Houston airport. Fiscal responsibility will never happen until we remove or redirect the incentives for local politicians to steal.
Great show!
