We’ve got your election results in yesterday’s state and federal primary and municipal general election. Plus: As much as you love Nashville, city living inherently means sharing space and resources with your neighbors, and y’all certainly have complaints, questions, and quandaries. On today’s very first call-in episode, City Cast CEO David Plotz is joined by Bridget Todd, host of City Cast DC, and Jane C. Hu, host of City Cast Seattle, to respond to your dilemmas, from when it’s acceptable to intervene on a bike path to what to do about that neighbor that really lets it all hang out.

Have more city dilemmas? Send them in for our next call-in show.
