| 1638626471676616711 | I am really excited to announce that a dream is coming to fruition. Beginning next week at noon - I'll be co-hosting a new LIVE daily, one hour radio show on @WHYYNews with @Avi_WA. It’s called #Studio2.

| 1638686319625863168 | During last night's mayoral forum hosted by @PHLschools, a student asked how they would would improve the conditions of school buildings, saying Black and Brown students attend schools that “feel like institutions.” @WHYYNews @FreeLibrary https://t.co/MrTK1YzDKc | 3 |
| 1638214761958481929 | @WHYYNews @susanphill Absurd. The role of a gas utility is to deliver a product needed by its customers in as safe a manner as possible. Not to virtue signal about climate change. PA natural is saving the average PGW customer thousands of $ a year. Asking them to freeze in the dark is not a solution. | 2 |

| 1638960342041600001 | The typical Philly household's monthly water bill would rise from $69 to $84 under a proposed rate hike the utility says is needed to deliver essential services.

| 1636889456618745857 | @WHYYNews @meirrinde @billy_penn Good riddance, now get rid of the board and put actual transit riders on it, then push for the Roosevelt Blvd extension instead. | 9 |
| 1639629643727732738 | @WHYYNews This is nauseatingly irresponsible and dishonest coverage. You are uncritically repeating demonstrable police lies to validate this obscene, wasteful theater. You and I could stick our arms elbow deep into a sandbox of fentanyl powder right now and have zero ill effects. Cops lie | 9 |

| 1637794136995627009 | @WHYYNews @EmilyKRizzo This is what happens when partisans pushing an agenda of white supremacy and anti-LGBTQ bigotry have to defend themselves and their decisions - they take money from the coffers meant to educate our children and throw it to partisan lawyers and PR firms. #GOPCorruptionOverCountry | 7 |

| 1639630282083975169 | @WHYYNews This is a story about an individual our society failed. Instead of discussing the mechanisms behind the toxic supply that now kills 100,000 americans a year, you amplify the PROVEN LIE that this required a hazmat response. Disgusting. | 5 |
