Takoma Park
The hosts join realtor Anna Mackler to tour historic Takoma Park, Maryland, and visit a variety of properties. Known as “Azalea City,” this close-knit, quiet suburb shares a border with D.C. and is renowned for its art and activism. The hosts make time for some history at the Cady-Lee house; a bit of local news at community radio station WOWD; and the story behind the community’s official mascot.
