The Showbox owners say Seattle can't force them to be an arts venue — and that the city is acting like Donald Trump. Speaking of President Trump, someone left a bike share bike on a Cascade peak and did it anonymously. It might be that senior administration official. We'll figure out how to get it down.

The first week of school in Washington was met with strikes for some and new contracts for others. How do we decide how much teachers should be paid?

A federal court rules that punishing people for sleeping in public is cruel and unusual. How will that change life in the Puget Sound area?

And the King County Council voted this week to spend taxpayer money on maintaining Safeco Field. But at a lower price than the original $180 million.

We discuss those stories and more with our panel: Bill Bryant, the former Republican candidate for governor and former Port of Seattle commissioner, Joni Balter, the host of Civic Cocktail on the Seattle Channel, and Hanna Brooks Olsen, a writer and political strategist who's taking a break from campaigns to edit Real Change.
