Speaking Municipally is a proud member of the Alberta Podcast Network, powered by ATB. This week we talked about the Edmonton Community Foundation which builds relationships that strengthen the Edmonton community. They also produce The Well Endowed Podcast. We also highlighted fellow APN member I Have Some Notes which takes a movie that sucked, but had potential, and puts it through a vigorous podcasting notes process to try to turn it into a blockbuster.

Speaking Municipally is produced by Taproot Edmonton, a home for curiosity-driven stories about our city, cultivated by the community. In addition to this podcast, Taproot publishes the Council Roundup every week. Sign up to get it delivered by email for free.
