Welcome to This Must Be The Place, the show where two dudes dig into real Minnesota history, legendary neighborhoods, forgotten stories, and all the oddly specific things that make the Twin Cities the greatest place on earth (and yes, we are prepared to argue about it). It’s part history lesson, part neighborhood tour, part “I read five books so you don’t have to,” and part “accidentally funny because we’re just built like this.” Expect deep dives, questionable analogies, unnecessary enthusiasm for local streets, and more facts about Minneapolis / Saint Paul than you’ll ever need in your daily life. But hey, now you’ll be the most interesting person at any brewery within a 10-mile radius. Smart-ish. Funny-ish. Very Minnesota.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/this-must-be-the-place-7077170"},"episode":{"title":"EP: 39 Minneapolis Needs Real Leadership — Dr. DeWayne Davis Isn’t Afraid to Say Why","slug":"ep-39-minneapolis-needs-real-leadership-dr-dewayne-davis-isn-t-afraid-to-say-why","published_at":"2025-10-16T18:07:50+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/this-must-be-the-place-7077170/ep-39-minneapolis-needs-real-leadership-dr-dewayne-davis-isn-t-afraid-to-say-why","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/this-must-be-the-place-7077170","url":"https://thismustbetheplacepod.podbean.com/e/ep-39-minneapolis-needs-real-leadership-%e2%80%94-dr-dewayne-davis-isn-t-afraid-to-say-why/","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/44ad521242805186e0af9f6b2bc1c94a6053a975733f0af1a7a6273fcd6e745a/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI5NDMyYTkwNi1iMmVmLTRiMTgtYmQ5YS1hMWEwZDQ5NjU3ZjciLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIwMTBiODljMy01ZTBkLTQ1YTEtYTFkYi00NjhkMzYwMDU4ZTciLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2ODJjYTA2MjJiYzZiMzI4MWM0MTU5NDUiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvaW1wb3J0cy9wb2RjYXN0cy8wMTBiODljMy01ZTBkLTQ1YTEtYTFkYi00NjhkMzYwMDU4ZTcvZXBpc29kZXMvOTQzMmE5MDYtYjJlZi00YjE4LWJkOWEtYTFhMGQ0OTY1N2Y3L1JlYWxfb25lX0Rld2F5bmVfRGF2aXM2Mmdoby5tcDMifQ==.mp3","summary":"This week we sat down with Dr. DeWayne Davis, and let me tell you — this one goes deep. We talk about everything from his upbringing and early influences to how those experiences shaped his worldview and his vision for the future of Minneapolis. Dr. Davis has lived a life. From his personal journey through faith and identity to his work as a pastor and community leader, his story connects the dots between the personal and the political in a way that’s rare and real. This isn’t a campaign stump speech — it’s a raw, thoughtful conversation about what leadership actually looks like, how cities change, and what it takes to build something better. If you care about Minneapolis, or just love hearing smart people wrestle with big ideas, this is your episode. Tune in, drop a comment, and tell us what hit you the hardest. Questions or comments?
