Episode one of Jay in the City on WPKN brings listeners into two inspiring conversations that spotlight the power of local creativity. In segment one, Jason talks with filmmaker Edwin Escobar about his journey, his storytelling process, and the work he is bringing to the community.

In segment two, author and playwright T. Ashley joins the show to share insights on writing, inspiration, and her recently opened independent bookshop, Reader’s Block in Stratford, Connecticut, and discuss the impact of arts and culture on our region. It is an energizing launch to the series and a great introduction to the voices shaping Fairfield and New Haven counties. Check it out and enjoy!
