Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Dan Reed
Complaints about rats hit an all-time high in the District this year, and in some neighborhoods, calls to the city have increased by more than 400 percent.
Among the culprits: A growing population of people, a corresponding increase in the number of restaurants, mild winters and poor sanitation habits. As the city steps up its rodent control efforts, scientists advise that controlling human behavior is key to the solution.
