Seattle Nice
It’s getting harder and harder to talk about politics, especially if you disagree. Well, screw that. Seattle Nice aims to be the most opinionated and smartest analysis of what’s really happening in Seattle politics available in any medium. Each episode dives into contentious and sometimes ridiculous topics, exploring perspectives from across Seattle's political spectrum, from city council brawls to the ways the national political conversation filters through our unique political process. Even if you’re not from Seattle, you need to listen to Seattle Nice. Because it’s coming for you. Unlike the sun, politics rises in the West and sets in the East.

Seattle's Sizzling Social Housing Debate
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Erica and Sandeep disagree about the merits of a proposed social housing initiative. It proposes to raise $50,000,000 a year through new business taxes to create publicly owned, permanently affordable housing. Is it the right plan to help address Seattle's affordable housing crisis?
