Description

On today's news roundup, we run down some recent headlines out of Philadelphia City Council, from a new ban on casino-style gaming terminals to a hearing on an anti-blight law that some residents say is misapplied to force them to sell their family homes. Plus, what we know about why the SE Asian Market pushed back its opening date. Executive producer Laura Benshoff is filling in for host Trenae Nuri and recaps these news stories and more with producer Abby Fritz and Hey Philly newsletter editor Asha Prihar.

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.
