Episode Details

Pittsburghers can hold a real grudge. There are so many local personalities and entities that have drawn our ire, from a certain healthcare giant to the major airline that ditched us to the soon-to-be-former owners of the Post-Gazette. Host Megan Harris is joined by a very special guest — her husband and former political reporter and editor, Jeremy Boren — along with local historian and writer Virginia Montanez to debate who exactly counts as a Pittsburgh villain. The discussion gets way more nuanced than you'd think!

Thanks to everyone who sent in suggestions for Pittsburgh's biggest villains.
