Becka Thompson — Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board Commissioner, data analytics pro, public policy expert, logic teacher and former City Council candidate joins Kenny and Jay.
In this episode, Becka pulls back the curtain on what’s really happening inside Minneapolis city government. From the ongoing struggles of Minneapolis Public Schools and the classroom realities families and teachers face every day, to the wins, headaches, and budget battles at the Minneapolis Park Board, she doesn’t hold back.
She also dives deep into Uptown — the neighborhood’s transformation, its challenges, and what it means for the south side — plus her own hard-earned perspective on running for office in one of the most politically charged cities in America.
If you’re tired of polished soundbites and want the real story from someone who’s been in the trenches of Minneapolis politics, this is your episode. Grab your coffee (or something stronger), pull up a chair, and get ready to get crabby with the facts.
