Gem of a pod

I really enjoy waking up, grabbing my coffee and listening to CityCastPDX. It is engaging, informative and funny. Claudia’s energy and rapport with guests is fantastic. I have even been inspired by the pod to write in about new businesses or quirky politico stories (I see you Eli Arnold and Portland Maine City Hall) because they seemed like a “city cast” story. Keep it up! Also to whomever keeps posting reviews calling Claudia a “good girl” stop! EeeeYuk!
Great way to stay informed about your city

I love listening to City cast Portland every morning. It’s a good mix of hot topics happening in the city and cool events to check out. Informative and entertaining at the same time.

New to the city and this has been a great tool to understand and appreciate the city warts and all. I don’t always agree but the talk is always engaging and interesting. Claudia is awesome

City Cast is a great resource for local news coverage. I appreciate learning new opportunities to support my local business community and hearing their coverage of local government. My one issue with the show is that while they claim to showcase diverse voices, they absolutely do not. It mostly elevates voices from very progressive leaders, activists/advocates, and public sector unions. Moderates are labeled as conservative, pro-business and pro-economic policy is vilified, and truly conservative voices are completely absent. It is an echo chamber, which is fine. Just don’t claim to be otherwise.
