What city would be complete without politics and its politicians? Well, a small town admittedly isn't going to get the same kind of big wigs and crime bosses you'll see in a major city, but hey, the advantage of a narrative is that we can get familiar with our petty lords and ladies ahead of time.

One fascinating aspect of modern, local politics is the effort to keep large corporations where they are, or to entice them to move to new cities.

However, ten minutes isn't enough to get in it in a real way, and that would be much too serious for Radio Skyline.
