We have good news, and we have bad news:

There’s one more Season 2 bonus episode. But it will be our last episode. USA TODAY has decided to end The City.

Thank you for listening. We’re grateful for all your support.

Podcast of the Year is @AnjeanetteDamon's investigative podcast, The City, Season 2. "Ostensibly focusing on the fight over a downtown strip club, The City tells a much larger story about the clash between the old and new in Reno," says the judge. (1/4) https://t.co/w2oOqkMVza

I'm so sorry to hear this. @thecitypod was fantastic, especially Season 2 💔

[Chris Boline @CDBoline]

Kudos to the @thecitypod , @AnjeanetteDamon , @Van_Sounds for putting together an awesome series. Here's my short take on the series for what it's worth. Also no copy editor on this so please excuse and typos! https://t.co/Fr288oWf0H

[Amy Vaz @amyvaz3]

OH NO!!!!!!!! This is REALLY tragic. Your season on the N. Lawndale “silver shovel” saga, was unbelievable, and still timely (as was the one on Reno). This is a great loss. I implore the powers that be, at @USATODAY to reconsider. 😳😳😳 please bring back @thecitypod !!!!!!

influencing how cities are made, felt, destroyed, and fought for. I was hooked. And in many ways it kept me writing. So if you have ever liked anything I've written, pour one out for The City pod and wish that tremendous team well. xo thanks for listening

[anjulie is on other socials now @AnjulieRao]

and am not an expert, truly, in anything deemed valuable in this economy. But then I heard my friend @rsamer was working on this podcast about cities—telling stories about tragedy and policy and resilience. All of this stuff seen as exterior to the built environment was radically

[anjulie is on other socials now @AnjulieRao]

Hi. I heard that @thecitypod was canceled and wanted to say: last year I was going to stop writing about built environment stuff because I was running up against a lot of self-doubt. I often feel like I'm not good enough because I write about the softer side of city-making

[DJArtichokeHeart @sophie_bot]

@thecitypod So bummed! This series was epic.

[LaDale Winling @lwinling]

This is a good podcast and Season 1 on Silver Shovel in 1990s Chicago was downright excellent.

[The Industry @TheIndustry13]

This is just awful. @thecitypod is/was an absolutely great podcast and something @USATODAY should be championing. So sorry it's likely done.

[Nikos Frazier @nikosfrazier]

Sad to hear about this great podcast, listened to the first season on my drive from California to Indiana last year, and binged the second season while driving around for the girls basketball tournament. Give it a listen if you haven't yet.

[Jimmy Davis 🎙️ The Moderate Podcast @themodpodcast1]

Noooo! I just found out that @thecitypod is not being renewed. Maybe @WonderyMedia can pick it up directly? The investigative journalism on this show is top notch. Really hoping it can get picked up elsewhere!! 😭

[Hannah Steinkopf-Frank @HSteinkopfFrank]

The first and second seasons of @thecitypod were two of my favorites in recent years. Somehow, the second session on Reno brought together tech development, gentrification and strip clubs all in one narrative arch.
