Joined by guest host Maya Ford, cultural communications expert behind Ford Momentum (35:04), Adam and Maya explore strained relationships between municipalities and their residents, as well as the rather unconventional links that demonstrate how activities such as pickleball and discussing Avatar can unexpectedly contribute to the development of a stronger, healthier community.
First, Adam and Maya serve themselves into the world of tennis to discuss how increased court fees are placing limits on residents' aspirations to follow in the footsteps of local hero, Chris Eubanks (07:11).
Then, they scrutinize the illogical rationale to continue “poverty tows” in the city of San Diego, despite a recent audit exposing the practice as a loss-loss for the city, and its car-dependent residents (53:13).
Tune in now and enjoy the type of conversations you wish you had around the workplace water cooler!
