No James Beard Wins, a New Spider Just Dropped, and Is JumpStart Bad for Downtown?
Today on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu chats with contributor Brett Hamil and producer Sam J Leeds to dig deeper into Seattle's six-year James Beard Award drought. Jane asks what it says about the city’s restaurant scene and whether the city's best food might just be flying under the radar. The three also dig into the World Cup energy transforming downtown Seattle, what the Downtown Seattle Association's new economic report is arguing about the JumpStart tax, and the Seattle Social Housing Developer plans to open another 1670 units over the next 5 years. Plus, a Yakama Nation naming ceremony for a newly discovered spider in the Columbia River Gorge.

Bonus Movie: Process
Reece Martin (RMTransit) resurfaces with a discussion with Dr Jonathan English on how process issues affect the quality of transit projects. They call it “engineering issues” vs “phone call issues”. Engineering issues are straightforward technical problems, like building Link on a floating bridge or a tunnel in dubious soil. Phone call issues are those where … Continue reading "Bonus Movie: Process"

The Trash Panda Slush at Slightly Furry
This story originally appeared in The Stranger’s 2026 Queer Issue. At the Northwest Cider Symposium back in March, I spotted someone on the vendor floor wearing a plush upholstered animal tail. They didn’t have a fursuit or mask on, just street clothes and the gravity-defying two-foot tail. Oh, right. I know exactly who this is.

The World Cup Finally Starts With a Yawn: The big game kicked off in Seattle yesterday the way soccer usually does: a low-scoring tie between two teams you have never heard of (Belgium and Egypt).

Since its opening in 2024, Sophon had become one of Seattle’s most celebrated restaurants and a demonstration of what Cambodian food and drink could be. In a complete turnaround, Sophon appears […] The post Sophon Appears to Shuttered appeared first on The Stranger.

Nobody Is Safe From the Rumba
This story originally appeared in The Stranger’s 2026 Queer Issue. It’s easy to glamorize the life of a record store owner. Just look at High Fidelity (both the original and the remake). Shooting the shit all day with your similarly music-obsessed friends while you mercilessly judge the tastes of customers—what more could you ask for?
