TW: death, harm to a minor, harm to queer person

This week co-ghosts Linley and marty talk Beyoncé and jail, but not at the same time. What a world.

TW: drug addiction, death

Short solo episode wherein marty talks about a season of change and says goodbye to an old friend. Kind of a sad one this week.

TW: sexual assault mentions

This week the co-ghosts talk so much about the new jail site and discussions surrounding it. Long episode, but it’s a big topic.

Also, somebody has a new song.

This week co-ghost (or go-host as the case may be) Linley Faye takes the helm solo to talk about upcoming legislation related to period poverty. Give it a listen for some insight and even some action items.

This week Linley and marty go deep on the meaning of a Real-Time Crime Center and the growing surveillance apparatus of the police.

First we review the emergency shelter numbers for the last week.

A minisode today. Marty is solo to give an update on some business at county and the state legislature. Linley Faye and Marty will return very soon with a conversation about policing and crime&punishment in central Oklahoma.

This week Linley Faye asks what “progressive” really means and what follows is 45 minutes of philosophy and very strong opinions.

In our final episode of 2023 co-ghosts Linley and Marty take a look back on the year and weep for there were no other worlds to conquer.

Topics include lots of infrastructure projects (not kidding). Bike lanes, large construction projects, taxes. Also we get some discussion of last winter’s city council elections, conservative fear, and doofuses who get in front of the cameras.

Bonus content: during a bit of joking about the relative safety of our corners of okc, the listener will encounter the wail of a siren. Classic stuff.

See you all next year.

peace,

co-ghosts
