City Cast Pittsburgh

Fetterman's Flip and Fall, McCormick's Icky Vid & Pittsburgh's New Police Chief

Listen Later

We have finally have a state budget, our national government is opening back up, and Sen. John Fetterman just dropped a new memoir spilling the tea on why he and Gov. Josh Shapiro no longer speak. Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and producer Sophia Lo discuss the latest political news. Plus, they explain why the Post-Gazette's three-year-long strike isn't necessarily over, despite lots of celebration.

Read the court rulings we referenced about the P-G labor dispute here and here.
