Sports Betting Story Explodes, KC Streetcar Opens... where is the critical media coverage?! | 10-24-25See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Quinton Lucas, Mayor of Kansas City, Missouri, joined The Drive to discuss the expansion of the streetcar and its impact on Kansas City.

The traffic cones have all but left Main Street as the Streetcar Extension opens after more than three years of construction, but now drivers will face a new obstacle: transit-only lanes. Plus: Raising giant pumpkins is a labor of love for some Midwest growers, and the pumpkins keep getting bigger and bigger.

The Main Street extension of the Kansas City streetcar line is finally open for riders after years of disruptive construction. The owners of Crows Coffee and Ragazza say they're trying to capitalize on the increased foot traffic.

After a five-year hiatus, the Tucson Greek Festival is back, and it's bringing the spirit of Greece straight to the heart of Downtown! In this episode, we sit down with Peter Anadranistakis, one of the driving forces behind the festival's return, to explore how this beloved tradition is being reimagined for a new generation and a new location.

The iron wheels of the New Orleans streetcars have carried generations through the heart of the Crescent City — and not all their passengers have been among the living. Along the clattering tracks of St. Charles and Canal, whispers of vanished conductors, spectral riders, and echoes of tragedy linger in the night air. This haunting journey through the city's veins is underscored by an original soundscape from West Coast artist Tommy Jordan, created exclusively for our Four Shadows series._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you've enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

After one too many long commute times on Toronto's aging street car network, Mac Bauer was fed up and decided to take it to the Toronto Transit Commission in a battle of man vs. machine. Over the past several months, Bauer has made it his mission to outrun the 11 routes that comprise Toronto's streetcar network, tackling summer heat, distracted drivers, and endless red lights all while maintaining a perfect undefeated record against his hulking red steel opponents.While the challenge began as an excuse to motivate Bauer's own training, the competition has taken on a life of its own, resonating with fellow disgruntled commuters and bringing attention to a system that Bauer says has fallen behind the demands of the growing city.This week on The Shakeout Podcast, Mac joins us to talk about his battle against public transit and why despite his perfect undefeated record, the victory he really dreams of is someday to lose.Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Huge thank you to this week's sponsor Smartwool.

Tucson just turned 250 and we're marking the milestone with a cannon blast and a return to where it all began. In this special episode of Life Along the Streetcar, we revisit a 2017 interview with historian and volunteer Rick Collins at the Presidio San Agustín del Tucson, the original Spanish fort that gave rise to the city we now call home. From blacksmith demonstrations to tortilla-making, tin smithing, and full-uniform reenactments, Rick shares how the Presidio Museum brings Tucson's rich, multicultural history to life. It's a living history experience that spans from Indigenous settlements through Spanish colonial days, into the Mexican era, and on through statehood. This episode was recorded live during a Living History Day event, complete with cannon fire, music from the era, and the sounds of a community keeping its past alive. As Tucson celebrates 250 years since its founding in 1775, we look back at the stories, volunteers, and cultural layers that still echo through the Presidio's adobe walls.

Bill sits down with Woody Allen for a wide-ranging conversation on comedy, film, and everything in between. They swap stories from the comedy-club era and dig into Woody's craft – his “do less” rule, why he hates rehearsal, and what it's like to direct once you've aged out of a role (including casting others to play the parts you once did). Woody weighs in on classic cinema (Streetcar devotion, Godfather II praise, Casablanca indifference), Bob Hope's lasting imprint, and therapy that “helped a little,” while Bill quizzes him on newer movies (yes, even Twilight). They cover aging, AI and immortality, the Knicks, and the contrast between Manhattan gloom and sunshine, with Woody teasing his new novel What's with Baum, out in September.

In this milestone 350th episode of Life Along the Streetcar, we revisit the story that launched the show, Mission Garden, but with a fresh and powerful perspective. Our guest is Alyce Sadongei, the current director of Mission Garden and a nationally recognized voice in Indigenous cultural preservation. With a background that includes years at the Smithsonian Institution, where she supported tribal communities in building museums and protecting native languages, Alyce brings deep expertise, vision, and heart to her work in Tucson. In this conversation, Alyce shares how her leadership is helping Mission Garden evolve from a historical site into a living, breathing space for education, community, sustainability, and cultural connection.
