Introducing Wisconsin and M: A Georgetown Podcast
Who needs another podcast? Nobody of course! But I’m going to do it anyway. I’ve been thinking about putting out a regular short (5-10 minute) podcast that covers news you should know as a Georgetown resident. My first podcast is about the state of the Potomac River and the Resident Only Parking proposal. Future episodes might cover fun history, short interviews, and other bits of info that make living here so great (or not so great, sometimes).
The podcast will publish through the newsletter but I’m also going to make it available on all the usual platforms, if you want to get it there. Here is the RSS feed (https://api.substack.com/feed/podcast/1189345.rss).
And let me know what you think! Even if you hate it! Maybe especially so! But also if you like it!
