Thank you so much to everyone who kept the spirit of Sixth & Jeff alive during its hiatus. It’s something different, and will continue to evolve, but its goals are the same, to educate and inform, to encourage all Louisville residents to stay engaged, and carry the knowledge of how their electeds actually vote. I am excited for what is to come… listen now!
It seemed that Sixth & Jeff's new chapter called for a fashionable new logo! Thanks to the talented @sand_pipercreations for this amazing artwork. It couldn't have turned out better!
After over a year of conversation about metro council and local politics, Sixth & Jeff, in its current format, has come to its end. Taylor will be stepping away, and the show will be taking a pause as Alena considers what’s next for this project.
We’re so proud of what we built, as it has served a need that hadn't existed prior. Thank you so much for tuning in, we are so grateful to everyone that reached out, shared episodes, sent us corrections, research, and supported the show. Thank you for being part of it!
This has meant so much to us, both. & As always, we hope you'll stay engaged! ♥️

Stickers for @sixthandjeff - For those uninitiated, 6th and Jeff(erson St.) are the cross streets of city hall here in Louisville, KY AND “a podcast that sets out to bring civic education to the people of Louisville Metro. Local government nerds, Taylor & Alena break it all down in easy-to-understand snippets, highlighting major ordinances, resolutions, and being a connector to your local government. Stay engaged, Louisville!”

@alenabalakos_ is a friend of mine who co-hosts the pod which sounds like an awesome resource in a political environment that aims to keep us in the dark about legislation that effects our community so directly - super pumped to check this out and you should too! Follow them to stay up ☝️

Jeff Hudson (R-23) and JP Lyninger (D-6) were TWINNING! Their political beliefs may be different, but their fashion sense is the same. 😉
On this week's episode, Alena and Taylor talk about the most recent council meeting where they decided on emergency weather shelters, Parkway Place, and Givaudan land downzoning.
