Description

D.C. United used to be at the top of Major League Soccer. Now, they’re floundering and have enlisted one-time United star and English soccer legend Wayne Rooney to turn them around. Juan Herrera from District Fútbol joins us to explain if Rooney is the man for the job, and what we should expect from the team next season under his leadership.

Also, here’s more info on the pilot program for families transitioning out of homelessness.

City Cast is the daily, local audio companion you knew DC needed. Washingtonians are gritty, proud, and resilient — necessary qualities for a community facing issues that range from an affordability crisis to the fight for statehood to the movement for racial justice… and useful qualities for a region full of whip-smart people, dynamic culture, and constant change. Washingtonians are deeply passionate about our city, whose story is still being written, and City Cast DC is here to tell it. Every weekday morning, our hosts Michael Schaffer and Bridget Todd will engage people from all over the eight wards in conversation about DC’s crises and its beauty, both literal and figurative. It’ll have the feel of eavesdropping on an energetic and informative coffee shop chat, except that with City Cast DC, consider this your official invitation to listen in.
