City Cast Seattle

Jane C. Hu

Booking Overview

A daily local-news podcast focused on Seattle civic affairs, culture, labor, transportation, and city life, typically featuring host-led conversations with local journalists and contributors rather than a conventional open-ended interview format. Agencies could credibly pitch Seattle-based journalists, policy experts, civic leaders, labor specialists, and cultural figures with timely local expertise; booking difficulty is medium because guests need a strong Seattle connection and immediate news relevance.
