Cities don’t run on autopilot. Every decision—every budget, every policy, every vote—is shaped by the people who step up to lead. A few months ago, I decided to see what it would take to be one of those people, and I wasn’t alone.

Densil Porteous and I were two of the many candidates who applied for an open Columbus City Council seat. The process was eye-opening—not just in terms of how appointments work, but in how civic engagement and political power actually play out in real time.

In this episode, Densil and I talk about what we experienced, what we learned, and what it says about how leadership is chosen in our city. If you’ve ever wondered how decisions get made—or even considered getting involved yourself—this episode offers a rare look inside the process.
