Seattle City Council passed a drug possession law that puts more decisions in the hands of SPD officers, but doesn’t provide any new money for treatment. Portland’s tourism industry is in crisis, according to the president of its tourism bureau. And welcome to the Light Rail life, Bellevue… the city’s light rail doesn’t open until spring, but one station already needs maintenance. KUOW Week in Review Host Bill Radke and Seattle Now Producer Vaughan Jones are here to break down the week.
In the last year or soa program from the King County Regional Homelessness Authority moved hundreds of people from the streets into housing. This week, the authority said it’s ending that effort. In a minute, Seattle Times reporter Anna Patrick will lay out what happened and detail the broken trust left behind.
1Some families are having to choose between their home and safety for their family.
In states where gender affirming care has been banned, families are moving to where trans rights have more protections.
We’ll hear from Seattle Times reporter Tat Bellamy-Walker about a family he followed through their move from Texas to Washington.
The bodycam video of a Seattle Police officer’s callous comments about a young victim is getting national, and international, attention. The Seattle Police Officer’s Guild said Friday that the public has been misinterpreting the video, saying there is more detail and nuance that is not known to the public yet. Seattle Times Columnist and Assistant Managing Editor Naomi Ishisaka is here to discuss the video, and the cultural issues within SPD that have brought us to this point.
Nine windows at the Wing Luke Museum will need to be replaced after being smashed last week during what’s being called a racist attack.
The museum says the man used a sledgehammer. Police made an arrest. The CID has been through a lot over the past few years, but through it all remains a vibrant network of neighbors. Our friends at Soundside took a look at the CID as a community and stopped at the Danny Woo Community Garden to talk about gardening and sustainability with some CID residents.
This week… SPD is all over the news this week, first for those deleted text messages from 2020’s police protests, then for an extremely controversial bodycam video from a police union leader. And things got messy at the Gorge this weekend when two sets of fans showed up on the same night. Stranger queer culture and politics reporter Vivian McCall and Needling Editor-In-Chief Lex Vaughn are here to break down the week.
The Centers for Disease Control is recommending that everyone 6 months and older get the updated vaccine for COVID-19.
Right now there are several variants circulating and infectious disease experts say this latest shot is your best protection.
UW’s Dr. Tia Babu explains what you need to know about the latest vaccine.
It’s been almost a year since Kroger and Albertsons announced a possible merger. Now a buyer has entered the picture - C & S Wholesale Grocers has plans to snap up 104 stores in Washington for a $1.9 billion. It all hinges on approval from the FTC, but for now C &S says it doesn’t plan any major changes for employees. Seattle Times reporter Paul Roberts is here to talk about what the sale could mean for local shoppers and workers.
Eating disorders are a mental health problem that can ravage the physical body. That ambiguity can make it difficult for people who struggle with eating disorders to get appropriate care, and things can get even more complicated when insurers can deny coverage. Seattle Times reporter Hannah Furfaro is here to talk about the challenges patients and their families navigate while trying to help loved ones with an eating disorder.
Domestic violence in families isn’t always obvious and abuse can be subtle...but statistics show 1 in 4 women and one in 10 men have experienced it.
A recent case of familicide in Seattle’s Wallingford neighborhood is a horrific example of how badly things can go.
But there is help and in a minute we’re going to hear from Doris O’Neal.
She’s the director of gender-based violence specialized services at the YWCA of King and Snohomish County.
This week… The Seattle Police Department’s federal oversight is mostly coming to an end. So is Joe Kennedy’s tenure as a Bremerton High School Football assistant coach… on an unrelated note, he has a book coming out. And Seattle's newest tech “disruption” is a big one: driverless cars. Arts reporter Jas Keimig and South Seattle Emerald Founder Marcus Harrison Green are here to break down the week.
Oooh boy there’s a lot of spiders around right now. Actually they're always around, just not obvious to you. If spiders freak you out.. Just take it easy.. There’s really no need. Just ask the Burke Museum's Rod Crawford…he’s been correcting arachnids bad wrap for decades in the ‘Spider Myths’ section of the Burke Museum website.
We visited him at the Burke to talk about the spiders we’re seeing right now and to try to coexist with them… and maybe even enjoy them.
It’s the first day for students at Seattle Public Schools and their vaccinations should be up-to-date.
That’s because in 2019 the state passed legislation mandating certain vaccines in order to enroll in public school.
But recently there’s been a small drop in vaccination rates.
Seattle Times reporter Elise Takahama is here to go over the latest numbers and what’s being done to get more kids vaccinated.
If you’re single you know, and if you aren’t single, you’ve heard it: Dating in Seattle is tough. Apps are really not cutting it.
Seattle Now producer Clare McGrane is here to tell us about a new way to meet people that could make things smoother.
This week… Yet another Bartell Drugs is shutting down, one of the region’s last 24-hour pharmacies. Recent tech graduates are moving to Seattle at the highest rate in the nation. And it’s the official end of summer this weekend, did you check everything off your summer bucket list? Author Jodi-Ann Burey and KUOW Morning Edition Senior Producer Katie Campbell are here to break down the week.
Last week San Juan County made a big splash when it announced it would move most of its employees to a 4 day, 32 hour week. The move is supposed to help the county's bottom line and employee health…
A new Bankrate study found that 81 percent of workers support a four-day work week.
KUOW’s Labor and Economy reporter Monica Nickelsburg is here to give us some insight into what’s going on and how viable this work model might be for the rest of us.
Bumbershoot is back. It’s been a while, and the festival is under new management, but the Labor Day weekend tradition is returning just in time to celebrate its 50th anniversary. Bumbershoot is one of the longest-running festivals in the country, and, like most things in Seattle, people have a lot of feelings about it. Seattle Times Music Writer Michael Rietmulder is here to remind us of what we’ve been missing out on, and what we can expect this year.
For the 3rd time this year, Washington’s companies are getting ready for a chance to buy permission to pollute.
It’s part of the state’s plan to cut emissions by 95% over the coming decades…. And it all goes down in a carbon auction tomorrow.
The first 2 auctions made over 800 million dollars for climate-focused work.
Freelance environmental writer Ashli Blow is here to tell us what these carbon auctions aim to do against pollution and what to look out for from the new program.
Imagine finding your dream home… a cozy spot, in a beautiful area, and better yet… in your price range. It’s everything you were looking for.
Now imagine moving in… and finding out the walls are literally filled with bat guano.
That happened to one local couple… and their four month old baby. They’re now working to rehome the hundreds of bats that became their roommates overnight.
This story originally aired from our friends at Soundside.
This week… Seattle got Smoky, and with wildfires burning across the Pacific Northwest, we probably haven’t seen the last of the soot. Government employees on the San Juan Islands are moving to a 32-hour work week. And the paper mill behind the Aroma of Tacoma is shutting down. Your Last Meal Podcast Host Rachel Belle and Too Beautiful to Live Podcast Co-Host Andrew Walsh are here to break down the week.
