About the show
What is the Philadelphia condition? That's what host/writer/musician Joey Sweeney has been trying to find out for years now, and the primary subject of his blog, Philebrity.
Philebrity is Philly’s longest-running independent cityblog, offering commentary and arts and culture coverage in a media landscape where we need it now more than ever. On this weekly podcast, Joey Sweeney chats with the people who make this city about their relationship to it.
