How to listen on my device? Episode transcript is available here
On this episode we are talking with Mike O’Brien, former Seattle City Councilman, who served during this time, from 2010 to 2020.
Seattlelites got to know Mike as a politician through his stance on various issues. Regardless of whether you agreed with him or not, when the issues were polarized, as is the case with homelessness, it got personal, for everyone.
Today we are talking with Mike, not the politician, but rather, as a citizen of Seattle. We wanted to know more about who he is. What does he make important, what motivated him to get involved and run for a council seat, and how does he see our city issues now, today, when he is no longer at the center?
Mike currently runs Ecospark heat pumps. Helping people transition their homes off fossil fuels. Find out more at https://www.ecosparkheatpumps.com/about
