Episode 16: Time for an overhaul (ft. Keith Linhares)
An exciting progressive choice for District 1!
Éirinn go Brách, everyone! Hope Parade Day has treated you nicely.
Today’s guest is Keith Linhares, who joined us to talk about his bid for the District 1 city council seat!
His first run for office, he’ll be taking on former District 1 councilor Tony Economou, an avatar of the sort of entrenched townie politics that keeps the city stuck in the ‘80s. Keith wants to change that! A bunch of great moments on this episode, but I especially appreciate Keith’s take on the core difference in leadership style between progressives and what we might call the “old guard,” and how that relates to the political calculus around property value.
