Listen "Ya Fav Trashman dreams of a clean city | Remembering Sid Booker"
Episode Synopsis
Terrill Haigler, a former Philadelphia sanitation worker, rose to local fame through his Instagram @_yafavtrashman, where he’s been raising awareness about illegal dumping. Between hauling gigs, fundraising, and a grant, he was recently able to buy a truck of his own and hire returning citizens to help him clean up the city’s streets. He tells Racquel Williams about growing both his charitable work and his business, and his goal of picking up 500 tons of trash in 2025.
Then, on Shara in the City, we drive up Broad Street to the bright pink Shrimp Corner to honor local businessman and community leader Sid Booker, who died late last month at the age of 87. Shara Dae Howard talks with some of Sid’s friends and family about the legacy he left in North Philly.
