The Campbell Conversations on WRVO Public Media has been running a series of programs on the I-81 project and the redevelopment of the area underneath and around it, including the Blueprint 15 plan. Below are links to those programs with a brief description of each episode and guest. Every week, Grant Reeher, Director of the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University, leads a conversation with a notable guest. Guests include people from Central New York – writers, politicians, activists, public officials, business professionals whose work affects the public life of the community – as well as nationally prominent figures visiting the region to talk about their work. The Campbell Conversations are longer interviews that encourage the character of the interviewee to be revealed. This allows one to not only learn about the issue being discussed but also about the person. Grant attempts to go beyond the usual press conference questions and sound bites. WRVO Public Media is the largest NPR affiliate in Central New York, with a listening area reaching 22 counties and southern Ontario. City Scripts is grateful to the Campbell Institute to be able to air the collected series of conversations on Interstate-81.
