Let’s revisit a few conversations from earlier this year including the best theaters in the Twin Cities – criteria include popcorn, comfy seats, and a good urinal — and a chat about the places techies should visit when they come to the Twin Cities. Plus, we discuss a project at the U of M that is working to undo past harms of racial covenants on home deeds in the Twin Cities. Host Sean McPherson is joined by a cast of characters for this one, including contributors Hans Buetow and Em Cassel, journalist Amy Nelson, and Executive Producer Anna Weggel.
