I recently started listening to this but the definite one sided take on recent legislation did me in. I am tired of all of the spin from both sides of the aisle and am still looking for a fair reporting station. This is not the one.
Favorite Local Pod!

I’m a recent transplant, and this podcast has been a huge help for me in learning the area and the stories surrounding it. They give helpful context in both the headlines and the longer-form pieces, and I always enjoy the Friday hangout episodes!
