Today on the show, host Jane C. Hu talks with writer and Seattle Public Schools parent Julie Letchner about her reporting that middle schoolers in the city’s public schools don’t have full-length books in their curriculum. She and Jane get into the finances behind this decision and what concerned parents are doing to try and change things. Then, Jane is joined by contributor Guy Oron, who has been covering the trial over nudity at Denny Blaine. The trial wrapped last week, and Guy gave an update on what the plaintiffs and defense had to say and what the potential outcomes might be ahead of the verdict. Finally, reporter Melissa Santos breaks down the best bánh mì in town according to Axios Seattle’s recent reader bracket.

King County Approves 0.1% Sales Tax Bump to Aid County Roads

A press briefing this week with CEO Dow Constantine clearly sought to assuage concerns that Sound Transit wouldn't be able to get all the way to Ballard. With a six- or seven-year "runway" to close a $9 to $11 billion gap, the pressure is clearly on to follow through on that commitment.

Does Seattle Like National Chains? Plus, Why Downtown Isn’t Dead After All
Today, Jane C. Hu is back, and she’s talking about the latest business news in Seattle. Joining her are Alex Halverson of the Seattle Times and regular contributor Marcus Harrison Green. They discuss the latest developments for Anduril, the very-real-but-fantasy named weapons company based here in Seattle that is expanding its footprint to Bellevue. They also talk about the news that DocuSign is staying in Seattle, and perhaps that downtown Seattle is going to remain attractive to local businesses and their employees who value good transit, nightlife, and all the pluses of a big city. The trio also discuss whether Seattle likes national chains and the give-and-take between employers and what they owe the city. Finally, they discuss their favorite spots to watch the World Cup. If you’re a neighbor (sign up if you’re not), stick around for a conversation about the state of thrifting in Seattle with Jane, Sam, and Ashley.
