Anti-ICE Protest Convictions, FBI Phone Data Grabs, and Is Spokane Beating Seattle on Urbanism?
Today, on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu speaks with two reporters about the federal conspiracy charges brought against three protestors in Spokane, what conspiracy charges actually mean in practice, and what it signals for protesters everywhere. Erin Sellers, a staff reporter at RANGE Media, takes us through the story from the anti-ICE protests last summer to the nine indictments and the three protestors who ultimately were found guilty in June. Then Schuyler Mitchell, assistant editor at Mother Jones, explains how the FBI in Seattle secretly extracted data from the phones of at least a dozen of the protesters and what this means for data privacy going forward. Finally, producer Sam J. Leeds joins Jane and Erin to discuss the similarities and differences between Seattle and Spokane and what the two cities can learn from each other. Want to get in touch?

What Has Seattle Learned From The World Cup? Plus, Economic Highs and Lows
Today on the show, Jane C. Hu is joined by contributor Hannah Krieg and creative producer Liam Billingham to talk about, despite an apparently growing economy in Washington, why are so many people being laid off and feeling frustrated? Then they talk about how Seattle has felt so neighborly during the World Cup, and Hannah argues that we don’t need FIFA to experience brotherly love. They also talk about the positive things we hope the city can keep doing, like public bathrooms in Pioneer Square and nice spots for us to hang out together. Finally, they discuss the new app Sniff, which helps bring together dog owners through technology. The trio talk about how the internet is good for meeting people, but you have to get out in the world and hang out!
