Alexandria has moved to ban single-family zoning — which is kinda a wonky concept, but one with big implications that ought to matter to you even if you don’t live in Alexandria. Teo Armus of the Washington Post will help explain why. Plus, we're chatting about a new debate over closing Metro for repairs.

And we’ll be ending with a special segment sponsored by the Heurich House, about their annual Christmas Markt which begins tonight!

As always, our roundups are powered by the fantastic local reporting here:
