    ‘Your City Could Be Better’: What Philly Needs To Know about Madison's Data Centers Fight

    Everyone��s talking about AI these days, including Philadelphians. And now, more data centers are popping up across the country, thanks in part to the AI revolution.

City Cast CEO David Plotz feels strongly that this was the wrong choice! He’s sitting down with City Cast Madison podcast host Bianca Martin to weigh the pros and cons of data centers, and debate the economic, ethical, and ecological considerations at the heart of this debate. Plus, David and Bianca share must-know tips for making it in Madison and DC.  We also mentioned this City Cast Madison episode. Is there something your city is doing that we should be talking about?

    The Battle Over Burning Our Trash in Chester

    In this week’s politics episode, we take a look at the Stop Trashing Our Air Act – a bill introduced by City Councilmember Jamie Gauthier that could ban Philadelphia from burning trash in Chester, PA, a city just south of Philly. Each year, the city collects 610,000 tons of waste, and one-third of it ends up getting incinerated in Chester where residents have complained that it causes health and environmental problems. Host Trenae Nuri talks with Gauthier about the bill, available alternatives, and why other members of City Council and the mayor aren’t on board.  Our newsletter has Philly news & events in your inbox every weekday morning.

    Why is Wawa Forsaking Philly, and is Sheetz our New Love?

    Wawas have been closing all around Philly for the past couple of years. Now Sheetz wants a piece of their pie. Why are Wawas shutting down stores in Philly proper? Has the quality of their hoagie gone downhill, or are we just getting older? Why are some Wawa stores bonkers, and others a place where everyone knows your name? And why, in the event of an apocalypse, would the first thing we say be: “Damn, I can’t go to Wawa”? Host Trenae Nuri reviews that and other existential Wawa questions with Philly Voice senior writer Michael Tanenbaum.  Our newsletter has Philly news & events in your inbox every weekday morning.

    How Philly Could Be Better: How the Twin Cities Organized. Plus, What Counts As ‘Cold’?

    All eyes have been on the Twin Cities lately, including Philadelphians’. Operation Metro Surge is reportedly ending in Minnesota, with the withdrawal of immigration agents expected over the next week. Over the last two months, though, residents of the Twin Cities have organized a range of local collective action efforts including protests, mutual aid, and monitoring ICE — and they’ve done it quickly. In this inaugural episode of “Your City Could Be Better,” City Cast CEO David Plotz talks with City Cast Twin Cities podcast host Sean McPherson about how his community self-organized, why these networks have been so successful, and what other cities can take away from Minnesotans’ response to Operation Metro Surge. Plus, we have a D.C. vs. Twin Cities face-off on local cultural norms. We also mentioned this episode of City Cast Twin Cities. Is there something your city is doing that we should be talking about?
