About this episode

The episode discusses the rising crime in Philadelphia and the impact on residents as city officials fail to address the issues.

Philadelphia is facing a crisis from rising car and tire thefts to city officials turning a blind eye. In this episode, we dive into the current state of Philly, where residents feel abandoned as police and the mayor fail to address the growing crime. On top of that, bus routes are being cut, leaving communities stranded and frustrated. We break down what’s really going on in the city, how it’s impacting everyday people, and why so many feel like Philly is being left to fend for itself. 7pmInPhillyPodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/7pminphillypodcast TikTok: https://www.TikTok.com/@7pminphillypodcast Co Host: Dwuan Gandy II Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dwuan.gandyii/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dwuan.gandyii Beer: twolocals https://www.instagram.com/twolocals/
