This show is taking a deep dive into issues facing our city. It’s thoughtful and not filled with rhetoric or individual agendas.

I'm very impressed with this - good to see local policies and issues explored in a thoughtful and easy-to-digest format. The host is doing a great job; guests have been very insightful. It will be interesting to hear how more complicated issues are handled.
Super interesting!
