The Croc's New Owner, the Lenin Statue's Wild Origin, and What's Happening at 12th and Jackson

Published 2 days, 6 hours ago
Description

Today on the podcast, host Jane C. Hu and producer Liam Billingham sit down with the new owner of The Crocodile, Comedy Tent’s managing director, Chris Copen to ask all about the future of The Crocodile. They dig into plans for the smaller stages, and what 1,000 survey responses in under an hour from Seattleites says about how much this city cares about our arts venues. Then, contributor Marcus Harrison Green joins to unpack Mayor Katie Wilson's new crackdown at 12th and Jackson — and whether it will have a real impact. Plus: the surprisingly wild history of Fremont's Lenin statue and our listeners shout out some of their favorite spots around town in our Monday Mailbag.
