This week, we do a deep dive into the City Council District 12 run-off, where (spoiler alert) there isn’t a great choice.

In this episode, we celebrate the end of Kasim Reed's political career and cover the runoffs.

Coleman and Melody finally reveal their pick for mayor. AND they do a quick primer on why everyone is voting for school board.

A deep nihilism pervades this week’s episode, as we break down the City Council vote for Cop City and how nothing matters and most of humanity won’t even notice when you one day shed this mortal coil to sweet, empty nothingness.

In this week's episode, Coleman and Melody are joined by prior guest and friend-of-the-show, Justin Bleeker, to continue our dive into the age old question (of this season): Was Keisha a good mayor? And this time we chat all things affordable housing.

Coleman and Melody discuss the controversial "Cop City" proposal. Never heard of it? That's cool. It may or may not include olympic-sized infinity pools laced with lead and haunted by the ghosts of former prison inmates. But don't worry: there will be a farmer's market.

In part 3 of our series “Was Keisha Lance Bottoms A Good Mayor” we wrap up our look at her criminal justice policies by looking at the crime statistics ourselves. We tell Buckhead to chill out a little, and we give our opinions on whether Keisha was a good mayor when it came to crime and policing.

We join our neighbors on the Nextdoor discussion page to discuss what (seemingly) has been the hot topic in Atlanta right now: CRIME! This is the first episode of our multi-part series down memory lane as we evaluate our soon-to-be-former mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms and ask a burning question. Was Keisha a good mayor?

This week, Melody and Coleman survey the damage of sine die, the last day of the Georgia legislative session, and tell you what non-voting stuff did and did not pass.

This episode, we dive into the often-overlooked question of how the hell we’re actually paying for the Beltline, and why there seemingly is never enough money to finish it.

We just "celebrated" the annual Gold Dome event that you may never have heard of: Crossover Day. What tha hell is it and why should you care? Let's chat about it!

This week, we’re joined by a special guest who helps us break down the latest drama at City Hall involving the mayor, the city council, and the residents of Grove Park, who just want to be able to cross the street without risking their lives.
