Description

Crime has been one of the biggest issues of the year, with high-profile incidents drawing national attention and Congressional intervention. Carjackings and thefts are on the rise all over the District. Emily Davies from the Washington Post is here to tell us where we’ve landed after a year of intense focus on crime – what’s improved, what’s gotten worse, what’s next, and what it means for the city.

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.
