Today on the podcast Jane C. Hu is joined by contributors Brett Hamil and Marcus Harrison Green, as well as special guest Glenn Nelson, journalist and founder of the Trail Posse, to discuss his op-ed about why this summer’s expansion of Lake Washington Boulevard Bicycle Weekends is another ‘erosion of one of the very few simple pleasures enjoyed by the BIPOC and other marginalized communities that have been push-broomed into South Seattle.’ Then, Brett and Marcus talk about Mark Zuckerberg's superyacht, which appeared the same day 1400 people were laid off at Meta. Lastly (for non-neighbors), The Stranger’s Audrey Vann discusses the experiences of women working in record stores.
