Entertaining U Interview - Rachel Henley

Rachel Henley – EU Designer

After four days of trying to edit down the audio file from last Thursdays interview with Entertaining U, I have given up. I am throwing the whole 1.5 hours up on the Urban Jacksonville podcast. I just can’t find the time to edit this thing down. So…

I met with three members of the Entertaining U staff last Thursday at Shanty Town. They requested to interview me for an upcoming Downtown living issue. I wanted to talk to them about the revamped look of EU. So we interviewed each other. More rambling discussion than interview, we talked about Downtown, Springfield, Riverside, gentrification and other things. It clocks in at 1:36:50. Whew thats a lot of talking. Enjoy.

If you want to play a drinking game and get really drunk do the following: get some beer and drink every time you hear me say the word “like” or anytime EU asks me a question and I don’t really answer the question. Ha! You will notice I very seldom answer the questions they ask me. I plan on posting all the questions and my real answers later.

Here are some of the questions they asked me:

  1. Would I consider myself a community activist?
  2. What do I think we can do to improve things that are wrong with downtown infrastructure eg retail, transportation, food and parking. Can the citizens make changes and if so, how?
  3. Will people moving from larger cities feel like they are taking a step down when they arrive in Downtown Jacksonville
  4. How long have I lived in Jacksonville/Springfield?
