Description

We’re back with a midweek news roundup. Today’s topics include University City District’s proposal to put a bi-level water park along the Schuylkill River, and why a city council committee grilled Mayor Cherelle Parker’s school board nominees last week. Plus, we’ve got a three-questions news quiz to test your knowledge of more local headlines. Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Abby Fritz, City Cast Philly’s producer, and Asha Prihar, our Hey Philly newsletter editor. 
Our news roundups are powered by great local journalism: 

Water park with pool and beach are envisioned for Schuylkill riverfront near 30th Street Station

Charter school debate dominates Philadelphia school board nominees’ hearing

Philly school board showdown: 8 nominees move forward, but the fate of 1 is unclear

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.
