    Visitors from around the world love to visit the Rocky Balboa statue. But the bronze monument memorializes one of the most famous Philadelphians who never actually lived. City Cast Philly host Trenae Nuri talks with Paul Farber, director of Monument Lab, and host of The Statue podcast produced by WHYY Digital Studios, about why people love this fictional boxer so much and keeping Rocky’s legacy alive.

    City Cast Philly is the daily news podcast about the city you love (and maybe sometimes hate?) and the Philadelphians who are working hard every day to make this place better. Each weekday morning, host Trenae Nuri will chat with people all across Philly’s diverse neighborhoods about issues that matter to you. Whether that’s what do I even do on the weekends in this city with endless options, or how do I get the bus to actually stop, or how is this city going to keep our kids safe and educated? City Cast Philly is here for it all. It’s that energetic, informative conversation you might overhear at your neighborhood coffee shop. But with City Cast Philly, you’re always welcome to join in.
