A year ago this week, the University of the Arts in Center City announced that it was suddenly closing its doors, forever, due to financial problems. The decision shocked its students, faculty, and the city at large. But there was one bright spot: The UArts dance program was saved by a tiny college in Vermont. And now we're told that the dance program is expected to return to Philadelphia from its current location at Vermont's Bennington College in the 2026-2027 academic year. So we're revisiting our conversation between host Trenae Nuri, Laura Walker, president of Bennington College, and Donna Faye Burchfield, director of the dance program, about how, and why, Bennington saved this Philly jewel.

It's Wednesday, so we're talking politics on City Cast Philly. State Representative Jared Solomon of Northeast Philly is sometimes referred to as a “reformer.” Why? He wants to ban Pennsylvania state lawmakers from getting gifts from people who are trying to curry their favor. He wants to term limits for congressional representatives. And he wants to eliminate Philly's long-troubled sheriff's office. In this wide-ranging interview at his law office in Center City, Solomon talks about why he's committed to reform, what's happening with the Roosevelt Boulevard SEPTA project, and how – maybe most controversially – he says people should go to the Northeast for the best and cheapest restaurants in the city.

It's been a little more than a month since the Philadelphia Eagles smashed the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59. While the Eagles' front office has been forced to move on from the victory rather quickly due to a flurry of offseason activity, the afterglow from the team's second championship run still remains strong. A recent live taping of unCovering the Birds between The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane and Eagles Radio Network analyst Mike Quick demonstrated as much. At FitlerClub in Center City, the duo discussed plenty of topical items, from recent free agency developments to new coaching hires, but also put key storylines from the Eagles' 2024 title run into perspective: Where does Jalen Hurts belong in conversations about elite NFL quarterbacks? How has Nick Sirianni become so effective at his job in such a relatively short period of time? And what makes Saquon Barkley one of Mike's favorite all-time Eagles? Plus, Jeff and Mike take questions from the audience. Listen to hear great stories from the Eagles' historic season, and find out if Jeff and Mike think the team is capable of bringing another parade to Broad Street next year. 05:16 Reaction to recent free agency developments 19:17 How Nick Sirianni is evolving and maturing as an NFL head coach 24:22 Is there any reason why Jalen Hurts should not be considered an elite NFL quarterback? 27:22 Kevin Patullo has never called plays in the NFL; should we be concerned? 33:12 Why Saquon Barkley instantly became one of Mike's favorite Eagles 46:19 Rapid fire 52:00 Jeff's big reveal to Mike, audience Q&A unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.
