Thanks for being on Boston Globe Opinion Say More to help us mark #EarthWeek . I learned so much!
Great talking to The Boston Globe's Shirley Leung and Anna Kusmer: bostonglobe.com/2024/04/26/sci…
🙋♂️ Lost opportunity camp here. I continue to hope for Boston and the Commonwealth to prioritize transit, housing, and infrastructure improvements on our terms. Yet, it seems we're still struggling to make progress. #boston2024
As Sue O'Connell Jeff Saperstone frame it, did Boston dodge a bullet or lose an opportunity with the demise of 2024 Olympic bid? I was in the lost opportunity camp. Boston works best on a deadline to fix the T, build out Widett Circle & more.
Mayor Menino once answered a question on BNN about why there wasn't later T service on Fri & Sat nights with, paraphrasing: 'Nothing good happens after 1am.'
Bay Windows dubbed him 'Mayor No Fun', which he told us he enjoyed....

Shirley Leung Boston Globe Opinion This would be better characterized as Massachusetts’ war on fun. Beacon Hill controls liquor licenses, including how late bars can be open. If it were up to the city, it would have changed by now.
Did Boston miss an opportunity or dodge a bullet?

From Ukraine to whither Boston 2024 Olympic dreams. Thanks Jeff Saperstone and Sue O'Connell for having Chris Dempsey and me to debate the Olympics.
So true: Boston's longstanding war on fun. Blame all the over regulation. Great piece from Boston Globe Opinion bostonglobe.com/2024/04/29/opi…

Shirley Shirley Leung! I had the best time on your podcast 'Say More' and during our trip through the newsroom The Boston Globe, seeing old friends and meeting new ones. I never would have expected to be leaning into being 81 years old, but I must say, I'm rather enjoying it!
Such a delight to meet Doris Kearns Goodwin who came to the Globe newsroom to record Boston Globe Opinion podcast 'Say More.' Bonus: watching grown men melt meeting the 81-year-old historian.
More Doris Kearns Goodwin! Boston Globe Opinion Alexis Sargent pens five takeaways from my 'Say More' podcast with the presidential historian on her new book about her late husband Dick Goodwin who worked for JFK, LBJ, RFK.
🎙️Listen wherever you find your podcasts.

.Doris Kearns Goodwin promised her late husband Dick Goodwin she would finish the book he started. That book is out today about his time as a speechwriter for JFK, LBJ, RFK. Doris was also on my Boston Globe Opinion podcast to talk about the book.
