History Reinvented is a two part podcast series that takes you on a trip around the Mayo Bridge and Mayo Island in Richmond Virginia, from its early beginnings to what the future holds for this historic part of the city’s Landscape. 

In this episode, we go back in time to hear from advocacy group leaders who want to make sure a new Mayo Bridge respects its history but also functions as a space for everyone and one that can be a beacon for what’s possible when you reinvent history.

New episodes of History Reinvented will try to drop every few weeks but, as a freelance reporter, I could surely use some help with you subscribing and supporting this podcast. If you can’t subscribe, you can rate it and share it around your socials because the more the word gets out the better it helps me keep going. 

And if you’re a sponsor who may be interested in helping, then please do reach out. Heck, you could even Venmo me a few dollars at Ian-Stewart-82 to buy me some coffee. 

Be sure to check out my other podcast, called The Mechanics of Transportation in which I talk to local Richmond and national experts about all things transportation. And, if you like music, check out Ian’s World O’ Music show on Mixcloud. For 17 years, I had a world music show on a local public radio station, where I also happened to report on transportation topics. Plus, you can always look for my freelance work on outlets like Virginia Mercury, The Richmonder, Richmond Magazine and on the podcast Full Disclosure with Roben Farzad–where recently, I guest hosted an interview with 80s music icon Thomas Dolby.
