It’s the Friday news roundup! Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Sean Collins Walsh, City Hall reporter at The Philadelphia Inquirer, and John Barchard, City Cast Philly sports contributor and co-host of the Bell and the Birdmen podcast. They discuss major City Council races and controversial legislation coming this fall, the Eagles' season opener against the New England Patriots on Sunday, and the best places to grab a bite on game day.
