World Cup Pride Protests, Montlake’s Plan for Permanent Affordable Homes, and Jane’s Three-Ferry Century
Today on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu is joined by contributors Marcus Harrison Green and Brett Hamil to discuss the record-setting attendance at the Juneteenth World Cup event last week and the more contentious collision of Pride weekend with the Egypt-Iran match — two countries where being queer can mean facing prison or the death penalty. Then, a proposed Seattle City Council bill could turn a former SR-520 Bridge staging area into permanently affordable homes priced starting at $250K. But who actually qualifies? And Jane wonders, can nonprofits be trusted to manage this land for decades? Finally, the three talk about weekend plans ranging from seeing Supergirl in theaters, a magazine launch party, and Jane’s three-ferry century bike ride. Oh, and if you’re a City Cast neighbor, it’s bonus segment day! Jane is joined by producers Liam and Sam to discuss a new robot built by a Seattle startup that “wants to be your kid’s classroom buddy and your mom’s new friend.” Tune in for a discussion that ranges from the Disney Channel Original Movie Smart House to intergenerational relationships and transhumanism.

Today on the pod, host Jane C. Hu is joined by regular contributor Chase Hutchinson and newsletter writer and journalist Harry Cheadle to talk about the latest strikes at The Walrus and The Carpenter and Hilton Hotels, including the very unusual decision for management at the Ballard spot to drop anonymized compensation for some of their workers. Then they talk about the upsetting news from Tacoma that a threat was called into the city’s Grand Cinema and how the community rallied around the beloved venue. Finally, the trio talks about a medley of news, including record Lime scooter rentals last weekend, Katie Wilson meeting with the Seattle film commission, and updates on park rangers at The Enchantments this summer.

My first Pride experience
My first Seattle Pride experience was the first unofficial parade in 1977. I came out while living on Hood Canal in the mid-1970s. My first boyfriend, who was also a Gay virgin, and I didn’t think there were many other “guys into guys” in our area. One night, his therapist took us on a tour of Gay Seattle.

Restoring the Cascade Volcano Names, Henry Overload, and Drone Ships on the Canal
Today, we're bringing you some of our favorite segments over the last few months, just in case you missed them. Creative producer Sam J. Leeds brings us a rant about art by the muralist Henry, and we talk with Seth Geiser, the manager of urban planning and design for the Downtown Seattle Association, about public art and why Henry murals are popping up everywhere. Contributor Marcus Harrison Green and creative producer Liam Billingham talk with me about Anduril, the defense company named after Lord of the Rings that is quietly building drone ships on the ship canal.

Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence: The Abbey of St. Joan approaches its 30th anniversary
On Easter Sunday 1979, four men set out into the city of San Francisco wearing traditional nun's habits. By using sincerity and joy mixed with satire to counter the prevailing homophobia and shame, they inspired others to join their cause, thus forming the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Thanks to their focus on service and Queer liberation, and a down-to-earth approach to safer sex education, it didn't take long for the movement to spread to other cities and become worldwide. In Seattle, the Sisters of Pe

Organizing Pride in Seattle from 1981 to 2000: A written history of the Freedom Day Committee
The Freedom Day Committee (FDC) was a unique, democratic grassroots coalition that organized Seattle’s Pride marches and rallies for almost two decades. We were all volunteers, and many of us represented groups or were individual activists committed to bettering life for Queer people. Some of us had roots in the social justice movements of the 1960s, and some were new to advocating for change. In the process, we all came to understand the power and the difficulty of coalition work, where we shared a goal bu
