Description

It’s another week where crime stories are in the headlines. Dan Reed from Greater Greater Washington joins us to talk about why this is happening and what it means for how the city operates. Plus, the Reeves Center is getting a facelift, and how do we define D.C.’s sports culture?

As always, our news roundups are powered by some awesome local journalism:

Katie Mettler and Justin George from the Washington Post were all over the Potomac Avenue Metro Station shooting.

Tristan Navera of Washington Business Journal explains what’s going on at the Reeves Center.

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.
