We’re back with a midweek news roundup. Today’s topics include University City District’s proposal to put a bi-level water park along the Schuylkill River, and why a city council committee grilled Mayor Cherelle Parker’s school board nominees last week. Plus, we’ve got a three-questions news quiz to test your knowledge of more local headlines. Host Trenae Nuri is joined by Abby Fritz, City Cast Philly’s producer, and Asha Prihar, our Hey Philly newsletter editor.
