In this episode, we're talking about East Boston with researcher and resident Joshua Lown. How did this series of soggy islands become a dense urban neighborhood? What is residents' relationship with their noisy neighbor, Logan Airport? And how did fights over runways and run-off contribute to a legacy of community resistance on Maverick Street and beyond? Plus, the White Stadium conversation continues and a vacation report. Jalen Hurts is nice to look at: Topping the Hottest QB rankings and appearing in the pages of GQ. Tortilla San Roman in Philadelphia. Ride the Codzilla. Bill "Spaceman" Lee in Eephus. Have feedback on this episode or ideas for upcoming topics?
