We cover life in the modern city by exploring cultural and physical development through the lens of history, and in the context of community. Creator & Host, Gene Kansas, sits down with artists, architects, designers, developers, planners, preservationists, chefs, skateboarders, civil rights icons, educators and even entomologists from time to time.  These are the ones making things happen, the leaders shaping the new cultural continuum.  These fascinating interview subjects give us insight into the way we live in and enjoy our cities, revealing the history and culture that make life worth living (or at least a lil’ more interesting). We hope you enjoy!
