Episode 4! We are excited about a couple of things. The first being is that we finally have local music to serve as the official #PtboPoliPod theme! Big shout out to Garbageface for supplying us with these bangers. The second is that we hosted our first guest on the show, Councillor Matt Crowley, who joined us to talk about his experience being a new City Councillor in Peterborough. Before we talked to Matt, we had the chance to go over the past Peterborough City Council meeting, which saw a slew of amendments to bylaws, some grants made out to the community, and the report from adviser Reem Ali about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. One major topic was the switch to private guards, away from city staff and police, to enforce people living in tents. Thanks for listening.
