WPLN’s podcast The Promise was a huge undertaking for the station. But we’re so glad they took the time to do a deep dive on the city’s redevelopment of East Nashville’s James A. Cayce Homes public housing complex, providing listeners with a multidimensional understanding of the people who live there. Host/reporter Meribah Knight spent months interviewing people who live at Cayce, and almost everyone else at the station had a hand in the podcast’s making — whether it was through editing or sound design. It’s the kind of reporting we admire at the Scene — and the kind of project we wish we’d thought of first. AMANDA HAGGARD
