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.

You Can't Recall Kshama Sawant
In this inaugural episode, Sandeep and Erica explain why Seattle socialist Kshama Sawant appears to have survived a recall campaign and speculate on what it might mean for the future of Seattle and the American left. Erica also discovers she has something in common with Sawant: They both love HBO's Succession. Finally, Erica and Sandeep are tearful over the death of singer, guitarist, and libertarian Michael Nesmith. Note: In the recall campaign, Sandeep consulted for a political action committee, "A Better Seattle," which supported the recall effort.
