We react to last week's election results in Minneapolis. Taylor Dahlin and Josh Martin join me to talk about Jacob Frey's victory, the prospect of a closely divided city council, downballot success that flipped the Park Board to the progressive side, Mike Norton winning "worst pundit of 2025," and so much more. Plus a conversation with a candidate (and cherished friend) who ran a heroic campaign for Park Board while being hospitalized with serious health issues: Jason Garcia, commissioner-elect in Park District 4.

We're talking about I-94 as a public health emergency that the Minnesota Department of Transportation feels no urgency to do anything about. With guest Mateo Frumholtz, public health researcher and PhD student at the University of Minnesota.

Rally against this public health catastrophe this upcoming Thursday, Nov 6. There will be delivery of a community petition to MnDOT asking that they restore the boulevard replacement option and continue to study removal of I-94. Bike with me to the rally!
