Baby Qs and BBQs

How to Really Run a City ¦ EP. 32 ¦ Baby Qs and BBQs 


On the latest episode of our podcast with esteemed former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and former Philly Mayor Michael Nutter, we are joined by two special guests. First, Mary Ellen Wiederwohl, President and CEO of Accelerator for America, the nation's preeminent city "do tank," and our dynamic new partner on this podcast. Second, Kansas City, Missouri Mayor Quinton Lucas, known affectionately to Kansas Citians as "Mayor Q." Lucas rose from experiencing homelessness to running Kansas City and he came into office with ambitious, fresh ideas.
"I think good mayors find a way to remove barriers," Lucas told our hosts.
Join us for this episode of hope that American cities can move the needle on economic mobility forward. And also a little discussion about the age-old rivalries of sports teams and BBQ recipes. Remember to subscribe to the podcast to keep up on all the latest episodes.
As cities go, so goes the nation!
How to Really Run A City is powered by Accelerator for America, a nonprofit, nonpartisan "Do tank" that delivers solutions, connections, and resources to mayors and other local leaders working to create greater economic mobility in underserved communities.
