This episode is our 100th! We are delighted that we have reached this landmark and thank all our listeners and contributors since we started the Urban Political in 2019. To mark the occasion of this 100th podcast we have produced a special issue containing two parts, in which we look backwards and forwards on all things Urban and Political.

In the first part, Markus Kip and Ross Beveridge talk to Mathilde Gustavussen about the origins of the podcast, why they set up the podcast, how things have changed since the beginning and what their favourite episodes are. In the second part of the episode, Ross, Markus and Nitin Bathla talk to four of our most regular and brilliant guests: Roger Keil, Colin McFarlane, Julie-Anne Boudreau, Colin MacFarlane and Urban Political collective member Hanna Hilbrandt. We ask them to look back 6 years - to 2019 - and consider what has changed in the urban political landscape, what urban research and practice needs to do to grasp the contemporary moment. Finally, the third question is asking what they think, in reality, might change in the coming years.

Thanks for your support as a listener!
