Liz Georges, and Joan and Julia Haskins, all long-time D.C. residents, share secret places and special D.C. moments. Lea asked each of them to share their five favorite things about Washington, and each, their favorite memory.-- After Lea offers a brief history of the city (did you know that George Washington, who founded it, never got to live there?) the ladies offered their personal choices of what to see and do, and what they appreciate most about their hometown.-- Favorites included familiar choices such as the free museums, Embassy Row and Kennedy Center. But also surprises such as Go-Go music-- "the answer to when you're feeling down," The Funk Parade, the staircase from the movie The Exorcist, and Mambo Sauce!-- After some free-wheeling discussion, Liz, Joan and Julia offered their favorite memories (and one includes a famous cabinet member)._____Liz Georges is a former attorney and currently leads the communications strategy for The Nature Conservancy's climate policy work in the United States. _____Joan Haskins is a writer and a children's yoga teacher in the D.C. public schools. (But she insists that her best and favorite gig was raising her daughter, Julia.)_____Julia Haskins is a writer, editor, and communications professional.____Podcast host Lea Lane blogs at forbes.com, has traveled to over 100 countries, written nine books, including Places I Remember, and contributed to many guidebooks.

maDCap is the story David Ross and Daniel Bloom's friendship. We record in Washington, DC. + DC's Funk Parade was excellent + Appreciating mom + Investing in people who invest in you + Figuring out life + The Royal Wedding + Finding a way to love
On May 12th, 2018, Washington DC rejoiced together in the name of funk, and it was good. The 5th Annual Funk Parade filled the historic U Street Corridor with music and maDCap was there to capture the energy. Our own David Ross was one of the festival organizers this year and Dan Bloom was lucky enough to run into him and snag a few minutes while walking together down U Street. You'll also hear impromptu appearances by our friends Amy Saidman of Story District and Philippa Hughes of Women of Uncertain Age and you'll hear music by Dave Rob, Batala Washington Women's Drum Corps, and Be'la Dona, the dynamo all-woman GoGo band. See Tony Lopez's (LopezArts) photos of the parade at our facebook page: https://tinyurl.com/FunkParade18madcap Thanks to David, Amy, Philippa, Justin, Chris, Tony, and all the organizers, artists, and sponsors who keep the funk alive.

April brought us the finale of the ROCKN' to LOCKN' contest, where local bands got to compete for a chance to play at the annual LOCKN' Festival this summer, Between that and this episode airing the day before the Funk Parade, it seemed fitting to make this episode a 100% local showcase.

Chatting up the folk who bring funk to U Street.
On Saturday, May 3, history will be made yet again in the U Street neighborhood of Washington DC. A one-of-a kind participatory parade and music festival is descending on the funkiest part of our Nation's Capital, and we have local-boy-made-good Justin Rood to thank for it. Three dozen musical acts will fill eleven free performance areas during the day, leading up to a parade down V Street from 5-7 PM, and from 7 until late into the night, local music venues like U Street Music Hall, Tropicalia, DC9, Twins Jazz Club and Patty Boom Boom will offer free performances. maDCap took a drive with Justin Rood and heard all about the Funk Parade while driving along Saturday's route. Then, maDCap took Asheville, North Carolina by storm for the 2014 edition of Moogfest. We recorded interviews with @YACHT, The Egyptian Lover, @ZedsDead, Adeline Michèle of @Escort-Records and @Dan-Deacon. In this review show you'll hear about our exploits in Asheville and clips from the interviews we recorded. http://FunkParade.com http://twitter.com/madcapdc http://fb.com/thefunkparade -- http://moogfest.com http://twitter.com/moogfest http://fb.com/moogfest -- http://madcapdc.org http://twitter.com/madcapdc http://fb.com/madcapdc
