Description

The most damaging female spy in US history operated out of an apartment in Cleveland Park and used to do ops at the zoo. Now she's been released from prison. Journalist Jim Popkin has a new book on Ana Montes’ 17 years as a spy for Cuba, and he’s here to share her story — and maybe pass along some tips about DC-area spycraft. 

Valentine’s day is really around the corner. We wanna hear YOUR stories about finding love — or trying to — in D.C. Leave us a call at 202-642-2654 and you might hear your story on the air very soon.

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.
