About From the Source

In each episode, the podcast "From the Source" covers stories of places and people that bring Pittsburgh to life. Created in the spring of 2020, "From the Source" began as an experiment to help our listeners process the changes brought on by a global pandemic. In Season 2, we're still learning what adapting to COVID-19 requires. Narrated by PublicSource community correspondent Jourdan Hicks, "From the Source" hopes to move, inspire and inform you about where you live, play, learn and breathe. PublicSource delivers stories for a better Pittsburgh, so if you care about our region's communities, schools and businesses, this is the podcast for you.
