It's a Very Special Episode of RacketCast!No guests this week. Instead, three of Racket's four co-owner/editors—Jay Boller, Em Cassel, and Keith Harris—will share the origin story of our local news, arts, and culture publication, which'll turn four this summer.All it takes? Four laid-off schmucks with a combined $4,000, plenty of Covid-era unemployment insurance, a dash of good luck, thousands of supportive readers, and the dream of keeping an alt-weekly-style news org alive in the Twin Cities. We think it'll be an entertaining listen for local news junkies, and, selfishly, we hope it'll help juice sales in the final moments of our prize-packed Spring Member Drive.But first! Here are the stories we gabbed about during What I Learned In Racket...After George Floyd’s Murder, MN Companies Pledged Millions. We Asked 14 How Much They’ve Given.Food Trucks, Craft Markets, Live Music—Tattoos?
