FBI's New Home, City-Funded Stadium Makeover, and New Credit Card Fees
The FBI has finally said where it’s moving — a decision that could have a big impact on the shape of the D.C. area. The Wizards and Capitals are asking for a ton of city money to spiff up their stadium. Plus the team discusses what’s up with restaurants charging credit card fees. City Cast DC Producer Julia Karron and City Cast Contributor Dan Reed join us to give us the rundown.
