The Charlotte Podcast

This week we drafted Thanksgiving dishes, had a fascinating conversion with the founders of the Hue House (a creative agency building bridges between creatives of color and Charlotte’s cultural and government institutions), learned the origin stories of a few charlotte roads, and received some Thanksgiving tips from Supportive Guy

       

If you make it through the random Ryan Gosling, Turkey vs. Ham and Holiday discussions you will be treated to a wonderful conversation with Bruce Bleiman of Giving Tree Realty about their Toys for Our Troops campaign. Also, please enjoy some hot, fresh history and an all-timer by Supportive Guy.

       

We sat down with Tony Mecia of the Charlotte Ledger to learn more about his career, how he approaches Charlotte business news, the funniest Charlotte story of the year and the opening of the Hooters in Gastonia.

       

Jeep Bryant and Valecia McDowell of the Arts and Science Council share why they believe in the new sales tax, how they believe it could affect Charlotte and answer some tough questions. We also learn the history of the ASC and Supportive Guy writes some inspiration for the flu season.

       

Who are Charlotte’s best celebrities? This draft includes them and some others that we had never heard of. We also learned about the Fool Killer.

       

Emma and Andy of Charlotte Magazine joined us to discuss the weird, absurd and head-scratching moments that make Charlotte so odd.

       

John and Supportive Guy sat down with Miller a few weeks ago to share their parenting hacks, discuss the Order of the Hornet and talk about some other fun things.
