It’s our first ever live taping! We’re at Politics and Prose Union Market, but we’re still talking about the news in D.C. — like the far too many judicial vacancies, some National Zoo news, and holiday book suggestions. City Cast CEO David Plotz and Anton Bogomazov, who is the Chief Adult Book Buyer at Politics and Prose, join host Michael Schaffer to chat about it all.

As always, our Friday roundup is powered by some great local journalism:
-Check out The Washington Post’s coverage of the judicial vacancies.
-DCist was all over the new Andean bear cubs that arrived at the zoo.
-And buy local this holiday season! Politics and Prose released their holiday newsletter with their picks this season.

And if you hadn’t heard about the bears at all yet, you should sign up for our sister newsletter Hey DC. Our editor Kaela got to that news fast. Subscribe here. 

We’re also on Twitter! Follow us at @citycast_dc.
