As you might have read in the Seattle Times or the P-I, Pike Place Market is marking its centennial this year. What can VoxPod (and KUOW) bring you that those dailies can't?
Sounds. Here's the show:
A Pike Place Postcard (4:55)
Today on VoxPod, an audio postcard of Pike Place Market. Though it turns 100 years old this year, the market still is a vital part of Seattle. Our reporters talk to a farmer, a fortune teller, a tour guide and an art vendor about what makes Pike Place so distinctive.
Amina Al-Sadi, Annie Stoller-Patterson, Sophia Skalbania and Molly McGill gathered stories that appear on this show.
Interactive question: What's your favorite place in the market?
My answer: The little Mexican Grocery that's next to the Starbucks (yes, the original Starbucks). I get the tamales and the cheap day-old pan dulce.
Your answer? Post it in the comments.

My favorites are Market Spice (for the free tea!) and the pig - We have the same name.
