Disparities, Zipcodes, Pandemics in STEM and Urban Planning
We follow Danielle Watt from her stellar STEM outreach work at UCI physical sciences to the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. While continuing to say lots about how zip codes matter, she’s got news from her own zip code which has seen a lot this last month. In the second segment (min 30:40), UCI Urban professor Scott Bollens also returns to the show. He examines the manner in which urban planning education and practice bakes into the system considerable inequalities.
Each of these interviews has extended portions available in separate podcasts. http://www.kuci.org/podcastfiles/984/WattBollensPod16-30-20.mp3

10th Anniversary Show: Archer Altstaetter interview continued
Archer Altstaetter had a whole lot more to say that we simply could not fit into the original broadcast. He said even more after we recorded, about having become a gay activist elder. Unpacking that on a later interview, will be our essential starting point, when a documentary about his return to his Ohio village will be released, “Hometown Proud.” NOTE: This film is now available on demand during Its Orange County premiere with the OC Film Fiesta, which just began on Oct. 15 and runs through Oct. 25th: https://ocfilmfiesta.eventive.org/films/5f6bb69b5b87080095f19338.
