Philly Is Shrinking, Curfew Proposals & More Flights out of PHL

It’s another midweek news roundup! The team talks about how Philly could be losing its spot as the sixth largest city in the country, as well as the curfews city lawmakers are proposing. Plus, the City Cast Philly team is testing their knowledge with the weekly news quiz. Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Abby Fritz, City Cast Philly producer, and Asha Prihar, Hey Philly newsletter editor.
