Mailbag & Reflections

from Shaping Charlotte · host Queen City Podcast Network

In this special episode of Shaping Charlotte, Clayton Sealey and Tesho Akindele take a step back to reflect on what they’ve learned so far from conversations about Charlotte’s future. From the opportunities of the PAVE Act to the balance of roads, buses, and rail in the region’s $20B transit plan, they explore what it really means to build a safe, connected, and livable city. They also dive into listener questions from Twitter and Instagram—tackling everything from train timelines and headways to neighborhood growth, safety concerns, and the future of Gateway Station. It’s part reflection, part mailbag, and a full dose of the honest, community-driven conversation that defines Shaping Charlotte.

NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
