This week, at 1:54, we talk basketball—specifically, the local basketball fans who totally lost it when the Seattle City Council didn’t do the exact bidding of a billionaire who wants to bring us a new NBA team. Stranger City Hall reporter Heidi Groover explains what the city council did and didn’t do, and then professional sports explainer Spike Friedman takes us inside the brains of the dudes who took to Twitter to say terrible, terrible things about the all-woman city council majority that voted against the billionaire.

Then, at 13:45, we take a hard turn away from basketball-obsessed assholes and talk about a tender, tough subject with Angela Garbes. She recently wrote a powerful personal article about pregnancy loss.

After that, at 25:54, David Rolf, a major leader in Seattle’s fight for a $15 minimum wage, talks about his new book on winning higher wages here and nationally. He'll be speaking at Town Hall on May 10.

And finally, at 30:05, your calls to the Blabberphone—206-302-2063!—plus my responses. Plus, as always, the music of Ahamefule J. Oluo!
