Weekend Listen: Is Seattle sweeping more homeless camps for the World Cup, tracking Washington state’s $120 million World Cup spending, and Seattle's viral LGBTQ garlic bread picnic is growing bigger and pricier to host
Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom. First, ahead of the World Cup, Mayor Katie Wilson’s administration has boasted about opening new shelter beds to get homeless people off the streets.

Anna Boiko-Weyrauch counted the money and explores whether it’s worth it. And finally, Gays Eating Garlic Bread in the Park - a local Pride event that drew hundreds of people together this month in Seattle. What started as a humble picnic two years ago - has grown into a viral event. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us. Tap here to make a gift and keep Seattle Now in your feed.
