Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
14th Street NW
Cities across the nation, and even the globe, are instating a new government position to oversee the after-hours economy. Whether in New York City or Iowa City, “night mayors” work evening hours and serve as liaisons between the city’s government and its nightlife industry. Now, D.C. Councilmember Brandon Todd is suggesting that D.C. follow suit. Kojo explores the idea with Todd, and an advocate for local nightlife business owners.
Guests
- Brandon Todd D.C. Councilmember (D-Ward 4)
