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!

The County’s Homelessness Agency Gets Gutted and August Primary Endorsements Collide
Today on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu talks with contributor Guy Oron and guest Erica C. Barnett about two big political stories. First, The King County Regional Homelessness Authority is being effectively dismantled, and the city and county will take back control of the bulk of contracts for housing and shelter. Jane, Guy, and Erica dig into what the city and county's announcement actually means for Seattle's homelessness response and if this regional experiment was doomed from the start. Then, the August primaries are heating up. Erica and Guy discuss what Mayor Katie Wilson’s endorsements say about her administration and how they differ from the newest endorsements released by The Stranger. Plus, they get into turbulence and turnover inside the mayor’s office. If you enjoyed this interview with Chris Chappell, the Brewshed Alliance Director of Washington Wild, learn more here.
