    ‘Your City Could Be Better’: How Portland Made Its River Cool — Presented By City Cast Philly

    How often are you out in nature in Philly? It’s not always easy to know which natural resources are clean and safe to use in an urban setting, and city rivers get a particularly bad rap. It’s true that cities have had eras of sewage mishandling and high boat traffic — but many have also cleaned up their act, through the tireless work of local advocates and politicians. Portland, OR, is one of those cities, and City Cast Portland host Claudia Meza joins this episode of Your City Could Be Better to debunk the assumptions and fears about her city’s river, the Willamette. Learn all about how a journalist-turned-governor led the charge to clean up Portland's waterfront, and how a quirky organizer — and lots of enthusiastic swimmers — have carried the torch. Mentioned on the show: Portland’s riverfront park, named after former Governor Tom McCall Swiss residents using river to swim home from work RFK Jr. swimming (in jeans) in Rock Creek in Washington, D.C.

    Hidden Cash in Philly, AI Answering 911 Calls & Preserving Murals

    When’s the last time a Philadelphian showed you a random act of kindness? We’re asking because the Philly Money Hunt Instagram account depicts someone hiding what appears to be  wads of cash in random places around the city and films those who find the money and those who are too late. Host Trenae Nuri, creative producer Abby Fritz and host of the Streets Dept. Podcast, Conrad Benner, talk about other ways strangers have been kind in the city. Plus, they chat about how the police department is planning to use artificial intelligence for 911 calls and whether our city murals should be preserved as historic landmarks.  Our newsletter has Philly news & events in your inbox every weekday morning.

    What's Actually in Smoke Shop Psychedelics?

    Earlier this month Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday said he wants Congress to put into effect a ban on hemp-derived products. Those products — like CBD gummies and THC drinks — are at your local corner stores and smoke shops. And that got us thinking about another intoxicating product that's available over the counter: magic mushrooms. Earlier this year, The Inquirer did an investigation looking into what's actually in those products. On today's show we're listening back to a conversation we had with investigative reporters for The Philadelphia Inquirer, Max Marin and Ryan Briggs, about why these products are on the shelves.  Read Max and Ryan’s full report for the Inquirer here.
