Welcome to the first episode of the new We Love DC Podcast. Our editors Tom Bridge & Jenn Larsen have cooked up three stories for your auditory pleasure.
Story 1: Spirits in Black
Jenn Larsen talks to the creators behind Spirits in Black, Ashley May and Patrick Owens, about their recurring event combining heavy metal music and craft cocktails set at the Black Cat tonight. Joined by DJs Andy Overton and Mike Murphy, and guest bartenders Owen Thomson and Jeff Faile, the crew shares the mayhem and love behind their collaboration and gives you a taste of what to expect.
Story 2: Rachel Levitin
We Love DC’s Rachel Levitin wears a number of hats, but she’s also a performer. We sat down with her in our studio to talk about her new EP due out this Fall, and she recorded The Light of Love for us. You can find Rachel at RachelLevitinMusic.com.
Story 3: Rhode Island Avenue
What happens when the City Council declares the city has another Main Street corridor? Kyle Todd from Friends of Rhode Island Avenue takes us through the new Main Street Corridor in Northeast Washington and what this might mean for the businesses and neighbors that live there.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
