Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
WMATA officials announced Tuesday that the region’s Metro system would shut down for 24 hours to allow for safety checks – starting at midnight that day. Government agencies, offices and service providers of all kinds swung into “snowstorm” mode, with nary a flake in sight. After a morning commute with no trains, we consider how the city fared and whether riders see this as a positive safety sign.
