Speaking Municipally is a proud member of the Alberta Podcast Network, powered by ATB. This week we talked about Straight from the CPA's Mouth, a new podcast series from Alberta’s Chartered Professional Accountants, which explores topics ranging from "leadership skills and achieving career potential, to financial literacy and how to make your tax refund bigger." We also gave a Pod Power shout out to A Tale of Two Weeklies, "a documentary podcast series that digs into the rise and fall of Edmonton’s SEE Magazine and Vue Weekly, two alt-weeklies engaged in a newspaper war that neither survived."

Speaking Municipally is produced by Taproot Edmonton, a home for curiosity-driven stories about our city, cultivated by the community. In addition to this podcast, Taproot publishes the Council Roundup every week. Sign up to get it delivered by email for free.
