Trenton Waves Podcast

Trenton Waves Podcast

The Official un-official podcast of the City of Trenton! There's so many things about the capital city of New Jersey that people have NO idea about! This podcast not only puts those things center-stage but also introduces the listener to a treasure trove of information about this incredible place. There's so much "Washington slept here" type of history in this town, it'll surely satisfy your yesteryear taste buds, but there's so much more to Trenton than, dare we say it, "just" the history. This show packs it all in with interviews, events, Q&As, swag giveaways, and more.
