  • Summary

  • City Cast Philly is the daily news podcast about the city you love (and maybe sometimes hate?) and the Philadelphians who are working hard every day to make this place better. Each weekday morning, host Trenae Nuri will chat with people all across Philly’s diverse neighborhoods about issues that matter to you. Whether that’s what do I even do on the weekends in this city with endless options, or how do I get the bus to actually stop, or how is this city going to keep our kids safe and educated? City Cast Philly is here for it all. It’s that energetic, informative conversation you might overhear at your neighborhood coffee shop. But with City Cast Philly, you’re always welcome to join in.

  • Billionaires Dunk on Mayor & Council in Sixers Arena Deal
    Jan 15 2025
    In our weekly politics episode, host Trenae Nuri talks with Ernest Owens, political writer for Philadelphia Magazine, who was the first reporter to break the news that the Sixers shockingly scrapped a plan to build an arena downtown next to Chinatown. They discuss what this says about who’s in control of the city – billionaires, not elected officials – and the political implications of it all. Want some more Philly news?
