  • Résumé

  • It’s getting harder and harder to talk about politics, especially if you disagree. Well, screw that. Seattle Nice aims to be the most opinionated and smartest analysis of what’s really happening in Seattle politics available in any medium. Each episode dives into contentious and sometimes ridiculous topics, exploring perspectives from across Seattle's political spectrum, from city council brawls to the ways the national political conversation filters through our unique political process. Even if you’re not from Seattle, you need to listen to Seattle Nice. Because it’s coming for you. Unlike the sun, politics rises in the West and sets in the East.

  • Joy Hollingsworth on Seattle’s Racial Politics and Whether She’s the Council’s Swing Vote

    Joy Hollingsworth on Seattle’s Racial Politics and Whether She’s the Council’s Swing Vote
    Feb 20 2025

    Joy Hollingsworth was elected to the Seattle City Council in 2023 to replace Kshama Sawant in District 3. Her victory was part of a centrist wave. But Hollingsworth sometimes finds herself on the losing, more progressive side of council legislation. Does she see herself as a swing vote? We also talk about Hollingsworth's priorities and Seattle's racial politics.

  • Election result: Did Voters Make Seattle Progressive Again?

    Election result: Did Voters Make Seattle Progressive Again?
    Feb 13 2025

    Nearly 6 in 10 Seattle voters said yes to Proposition 1A to fund social housing after the first ballot count. It's shaping up like a big win for the more progressive side in Seattle politics.

    Why did voters move left this time? Is Seattle's pendulum swinging in a more progressive direction as we head into a big local election year? Is there really a pendulum?
