This week…

Seattle got Smoky, and with wildfires burning across the Pacific Northwest, we probably haven’t seen the last of the soot.

Government employees on the San Juan Islands are moving to a 32-hour work week.

And the paper mill behind the Aroma of Tacoma is shutting down.

Your Last Meal Podcast Host Rachel Belle and Too Beautiful to Live Podcast Co-Host Andrew Walsh are here to break down the week.
