The show follows the lives of the citizens of Newark including it's Mayor Cory Booker as they work to re-make their city.
And we'll have a conversation with the mind behind the blog The Urbanophile. Aaron Renn is a leading urban affairs thinker and strategist in the midwest and his blog, The Urbanophile is a must read for people who are about cities.
