About this episode
Go-Go has been THE sound of D.C. since the late 1970’s. In 2020, Mayor Muriel Bowser designated it the official music of the District. But should it be? Hosts Michael Schaffer and Bridget Todd discuss what Go-Go means to both of them, how its influenced their perspective on the city, and if Go-Go could go national.
