Should be required listening for everyone who calls this city home!
Jamie’s does a thing where his goes low and barely audible. Please fix it! Otherwise. Great fascinating pod. Really enjoyed the content I could hear.
A brilliant podcast featuring insightful conversations with knowledgeable guests about a city I’ll probably never call home. The topics sound boring but are presented in a fascinating manner, and the dialogue is refreshingly calm—no interruptions, no bullying, no anger. I wish every conversation could be this respectful and thoughtful. It will make you think, I absolutely love it.
