Phone-Free Concerts and Public Schools, World Cup Expectations, and the Crocodile’s Comedy Pivot
Today on the podcast, producer Liam Billingham takes over the host seat to ask the important questions like what Phoebe Bridgers and Seattle Public Schools have in common (hint: it has to do with cell phones) and what format is the film The Odyssey best viewed in? Liam is joined by executive producer Ashley Smith to give a rundown of the changes coming to Seattle in preparation for the first World Cup matches, including the pedestrian-only zones downtown and new digital kiosks.
