SGV Connect 34 – An End of the Year Chat with Joe and Melanie

Welcome to the last episode of SGV Connect for 2018. Today, Kris Fortin and Damien Newton talk with Melanie Curry and Joe Linton. The two Streetsblog editors join us to look back at some of the biggest stories from 2018 and look ahead to what's anticipated in 2019.
