A Seattle-Filmed Movie, Little Saigon Wants a Comeback, and City Council Bans Junk Fees
Today on the podcast, guest host Marcus Green is joined by journalist Yuko Kodama to discuss her recent piece in the South Seattle Emerald about Little Saigon. Is it on the decline, or on the way to a comeback? Then Marcus is joined by creative producer Liam Billingham and Journalist Chase Hutchinson to discuss Seattle City Council’s busy day banning junk fees, predatory calls about selling your home, and also some financial relief for trans refugees. Finally, the trio talks about the new film Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, and Chase tells us about the film Friend Thing, which is shooting in Seattle, while defending Twilight and also criticizing a George Clooney movie for its stolen Seattle valor.
