For this episode, Mike Norton and host John Edwards welcome your angry replies to their bike ride through Uptown, around the lakes, and back again. We discuss the life and death of Uptown; the perverse incentives of the commercial real estate market; how Minneapolis has earned its designation as the happiest city in the USA; why Mike Norton's resignation as Minneapolis DFL vice chair was really just him getting out ahead of an ethics investigation; we rank Uptown's many coffee shops and grocery stores; John expresses a fear that Minneapolis is transitioning from the era of demanding police accountability to mindless police hero worship.
