Join Sean McPherson and the City Cast Twin Cities team every weekday morning as we bring you the day's conversations about life in the Twin Cities. With our cast of journalists, activists, experts and residents, we celebrate our wins with beaming pride, critique our shortcomings with the attention of a seed art judge and mutter “that’s interesting” for anything in between. Alongside our daily newsletter, we put the spotlight on the news and culture of the Twin Cities from every perspective we can find – including yours. It’s like a potluck where everyone’s invited and no one brings grape salad. So whether you've been here long enough to remember the Halloween blizzard of 1991, or you just bought your first winter coat, bring your dish over and let's talk.

“Purple Rain” Review, Chi Chi’s 2.0 and Twin Cities Wins
The Twin Cities team watched the “Purple Rain” musical, and the takes may be sacrilegious, but we promise they’re from the bottom of our sequined hearts. Plus, James Norton of Heavy Table joins Sean McPherson and contributor Denzel Belin to talk about the return of Chi Chi’s. Is it as good as you remember? Or were you just seven? We also celebrate some good news in the cities.
