Officials say the raid at P*Town last weekend was an occupancy check — one they seemingly failed and which could put their liquor license in jeopardy. We're in the last stretch of the mayoral primary, and we're talking about the group chat supporting incumbent Ed Gainey, a union call to remove the mayor's COO for alleged anti-police bias, and criticism of Corey O'Connor for leaving a candidate forum early to attend a fundraiser. Plus, a famous Andy Warhol print seems to have ended up in Dutch trash, and there are a bunch of fun book events coming this weekend and beyond.  Notes and references from today's show: P Town Bar ‘Raided' During Queer Event Featuring Amanda Lepore [QBurgh] Gainey: Overcrowding complaint, not bias, prompted inspection at Pittsburgh gay bar [TribLive]  Liquor Licensing & Enforcement Fact Sheet [Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board]  Why Ed Gainey Wants To Stay Pittsburgh's Mayor [City Cast Pittsburgh] Why Corey O'Connor Wants To Be Pittsburgh's Next Mayor [City Cast Pittsburgh] Why Thomas West Wants To Be Pittsburgh's Next Mayor [City Cast Pittsburgh] Why Tony Moreno Wants To Be Pittsburgh's Next Mayor [City Cast Pittsburgh] In Pittsburgh mayoral race, Gainey foe criticizes group chat that supporters call a 'common' tool [WESA] Pittsburgh Police union requests new city negotiator for 2026 contract [WTAE] New team of plumbers aim to have Pittsburgh's fountains flowing earlier this year [WESA] Pittsburgh official's 'horrible' social media posts raise ire of police union ahead of contract talks [TribLive] Dutch Municipality Accidentally Discards a 1980s Warhol Print [New York Times] Pittsburgh author awarded Pulitzer Prize for book on Harriet Tubman's role in a Civil War raid [WESA] Carnegie Mellon Alumni Nominated for 13 Tony Awards [Carnegie Mellon University] National Endowment for the Arts funding cuts hit Pittsburgh [WESA] Learn more about the sponsors of this May 9th episode: Aura Frames - Get $35-off plus free shipping on the Carver Mat frame with Promo Code CITYCAST Liberty Magic Fulton Commons Cozy Earth - Use code COZYPITTSBURGH for 40% off best-selling sheets, towels, pajamas, and more.

What will it take to get a grocery store downtown? Maybe Gov. Josh Shapiro has ideas!! He was in town a week after the arson attack on the Pennsylvania governor's mansion touring coffee shops and other pop-up businesses as part of a collection of incentive programs championed by the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership, which is hoping to fill space in over 60 vacant retail spaces between now and next year's NFL Draft. Halfway through our Mayoral Mondays series, we're taking stock of Pittsburgh's primary election for mayor, including our takeaways so far from talking to the Democratic candidates, plus the latest on our city's financial position and an anti-Gainey mailer that some call a dog whistle. We've also got good news for outdoor lovers: a new pedestrian rail trail over the Allegheny River into Aspinwall and the return of Venture Outdoors' kayak launch — this time, Downtown near the convention center.  Get more from City Cast Pittsburgh when you become a City Cast Pittsburgh Neighbor.

“No script, no editing, no do-overs.” Opening their latest podcast with a listener review that captures their essence, the Drinking Partners stay true to that analysis as they interview Virginia Alvino Young, a reporter for WESA – Pittsburgh’s NPR affiliate. As a journalist who centers her work around community voices that are often unheard, Ms. Young brings a natural ease and calmness to the studio as she adjusts to being on the other side of the microphone. What follows is an examination of Pittsburgh that is intuitive and sensitive, yet sharp as Ms. Young highlights what makes Pittsburgh unique. In between moments of deep examination, Ed and Day drop jokes and share their own original takes on the city. To read more of Ms. Young’s work, visit http://wesa.fm/people/virginia-alvino-young#stream/0. The Drinking Partners will be live at Comtra Theatre on Saturday, March 31, 2018.
