And the Sheriff’s office is back in the news – this time for its connection to a four-car crash that was kept under the radar for months. Host Trenae Nuri also shares some good news with executive producer Matt Katz and Hey Philly newsletter editor Siani Colon – there’s a new Kelce, some new (unusual) SEPTA merch, and four new James Beard finalists from Philly.
