Episode description

The 812 marks its 100th episode with Bloomington Mayor Kerry Thomson, who graciously sat for a double interview earlier this week. In this first part, we ask about her Bloomington origin story -- it's not typical -- and her life before taking office, including about her long tenure running the local Habitat for Humanity chapter, and how she decided to run for mayor. Part II, on her administration's status and plans, will be available Monday. 

In the Last Pitch: a philosophical treatise about the dilemma that many podcasters have -- namely, should we offer more episodes with shorter lengths, or fewer episodes with longer ones? -- and reframing it as a question for the notoriously late-night City Council.
