There have been galleries on Harrison Ave. and the surrounding neighborhood has been known by it’s annoying acronym SOWA for at least a decade, yet to Geoff Edgers, ostensibly an arts reporter, their existence has been a secret. Being a carpet-bagger is not necessarily a detriment to the practice of reporting and journalism, however lazyness certainly can be.

Hosts Meghna Chakrabarti and Anthony Brooks introduce us to newsmakers, big thinkers and artists and bring us stories of relevance to Bostonians here and around the region. Live every weekday at 3.

Listen: Weekdays, 3 p.m. on 90.9 FM
Live Call-In: (800) 423-TALK
