    Secrets of Local Government: The Work You Don’t See
    Oct 7 2025

    Many people quietly shape the safety and well-being of our communities every day. In this episode, I share real stories from behind the scenes: a finance director who saved a city from financial trouble, a traffic engineer who made roads safer with one small change, and a SWAT officer who sees humanity even in the hardest moments. Discover the hidden strength of those who keep our cities running — the people you don’t see, but who make all the difference.

    Government isn't Built for Speed
    Sep 12 2025

    Welcome back to Local Government 101, season 2! This season is going to be a bit different.

    Drawing on my background in Classics, journalism, and years of studying city government, I break down the challenges, trade-offs, and successes in short episodes. The U.S. system isn’t built for speed or perfection, but for balance: leaders, experts, and residents all share in the process. Government may be slow and complex, but that balance is its strength — and here, you’ll learn how it works and why it matters.
