Auburn on Main

Chester and Jonathan are joined by the Office of Equity's Madeline (Maddie) Ralstin to talk equity work citywide. Maddie works closely with several departments across the city to help plan the annual Juneteenth event, which is ushering in its third year at Les Gove Park. Plus, Pride at the Market in June and more!

Oh, and because it's officially baseball season, see if you can guess who's singing Take Me Out to the Ballgame. Jonathan may have accidentally made it way too difficult.

Chester and Jonathan are joined by empty space to discuss the Auburn Food Bank's big move to their new building! It's a massive, wonderful, bright and cheerful space full of so much potential and food. The duo also talk warm weather, March Madness, Peter Cotton Trail, and goings on at the Postmark Center for the Arts.

Chester and Jonathan are joined by City of Auburn Special Events Coordinator Amanda Valdez to talk about all the amazing events coming up this spring, including Peter Cotton Trail later this month, Clean Sweep the following, and Petpalooza in May! And of course, they can't NOT talk about Dune 2 and State of the City, two equally important cultural milestones for Auburn area residents. To celebrate everyone's favorite day, the start of daylight saving time, they finish strong by guessing song names and artists who wrote about time.

Chester and Jonathan are joined by Auburn's Bridget Jones, one of the pastors of Messiah Lutheran Church at 4th and H Street. The trio talks about Civics Academy, what brought Bridget to Auburn, State of the City, and Dune Part 2 (HYPE).

Chester and Jonathan sit down with newly crowned Miss Auburn Maddy Lindsay to talk about her journey to now, the hardships she faced along the way, and how she's doing to spread volunteerism city wide!

The trio also discuss the Super Bowl, Santana (and Rob Thomas) and then try and guess singers of the national anthem (hint: Maddy is pretty good!).

Jonathan Glover and Chester Boyd are joined by City of Auburn Senior Planner Josh Steiner to talk long range planning, the City's giant, complex Comprehensive Plan, baseball, music and more! Find out why the Comprehensive Plan is so important and how that process is carefully constructed to involve as much public input as possible. Have an idea or suggestion?

Chester and Jonathan return for the first 2024 episode of Auburn on Main! The boys catch up, go over what's new since last year (three new council members, a smattering of events at Postmark), and finish strong with a sound that's been stuck in our heads all week.

The boys sit down with City of Auburn Neighborhood Programs Coordinator Chris Lovings to talk all the ways the City of Auburn works to get residents connected with, well, residents. And not just each other, services and programs that help enrich and enhance the experience of living in the Auburn valley. We delve deep into the community fund, civics academy, national night out, and more! Stick around till the end to see if Chris can successfully guess a scene from a famous sports movie that's confusingly in the public spotlight.

The Auburn on Main boys Chester and Jonathan are joined by Aidyn Dervaes, one of two new arts assistants at the City of Auburn. Aidyn, alongside her cohort Amanda Jenkinson, spends her working days in the brand new Postmark Center for the Arts, curating artist exhibits and readying the community for classes and activities.

The crew sit down to talk art, artists, Postmark, and how you -- yes you -- are literally missing out on the time of your life by not checking out Postmark.

The boys sit down with Parks, Arts and Recreation Manager Kevin Wittee to talk about the latter of what parks offers -- recreation! With Thanksgiving right around the corner, there's no better time than now to start thinking about fitness and how to burn off those extra calories.

The trio also talks about Pickelball, somehow the most popular new sport in America. How it's played, why it's so popular, and where in Auburn you can smack around the ball.

They also chat about the best Thanksgiving movies and music (hint: there ain't much to choose from).
