Cities

Description
Join us in one of America’s oldest urban centers for a show about cities, including ruins, sewage and ghost towns. Our panelists are: Ed Glaeser, Harvard economist and author of Triumph of the City, who doesn’t know when to quit. Amy Glasmeier, professor of economic geography and regional planning at MIT and creator of the Living Wage Calculator, who loves to run as a write-in candidate. Eugene Mirman, comedian and the voice of Gene on Bob’s Burgers, who is kind of a big deal in Boston. Our real-time fact-checker is Mike Maughan, head of global insights at Qualtrics.
