Episode 37: Bamboleo w/ Windy March

<p>Veteran journalist William &#39;Windy&#39; March joins the show and gives a short history of the year that Tampa&#39;s annual pirate-themed Gasparilla was canceled rather than admit Black members into its fold. While the ill-fated Bamboleo ended up being a one-hit wonder, its memory lives on. Windy and Ryan also talk about the rise of nonprofit journalism, as well as Florida Republicans&#39; half-baked idea to abolish property taxes and starve local governments of funding.</p><p>You can check out some of Windy&#39;s work at the <a href="https://floridatrident.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Florida Trident</a>.</p><p>Follow Tropical Depression on all social platforms at @TropDepPod! </p><p>Fan of the show? <a href="https://www.patreon.com/c/TropicalDepression">⁠⁠Support Tropical Depression on Patreon!</a></p>
