The City Sculptor's Podcast brings the heat — literally. Clemente Luna, owner of Luna Heating & Cooling, sits down to talk about what it took to build his business, what keeps him going, and why Kansas City has his heart. From the grind of entrepreneurship to the pride of being a local business owner who invests in his community, Clemente's story is proof that some of the most important city-builders never run for office. They just show up, do the work, and take care of their people.

Mayor Watson didn't come to the seat to maintain the status quo — she came to build something. The first Black woman elected mayor in Kansas City, Kansas history sits down with The City Sculptor's Podcast to talk legacy, leadership, and what it really means to develop a city without leaving your community behind. We cover everything from her path through education and nonprofit work, to the real talk on stadiums, housing, budgets, and belonging. Plus — rapid fire questions, her theme song, and the advice she has for every Millennial and Gen Z dreamer who wants to be part of shaping where they live. This one's for the builders.

What do you do when the space you need doesn't exist? You build it. In this episode of City Sculptors, host Alexis Williams sits down with Deejay Nimrod, co-founder of the Outsiders Social Club, a Kansas City hub designed for creatives, thinkers, and culture-builders who never quite fit into traditional spaces. After returning to Kansas City, Deejay and co-founder Ellen Nimrod recognized a gap in the community and turned that realization into OSC: a space where work and culture collide, community feels like belonging, and the right rooms change lives. From its intentional gatherings to its coworking hub, cultural events, and a foundation built to uplift young minority professionals, OSC is more than a coffee shop — it's a movement. Join us for a conversation about entrepreneurship, community over competition, and what it really means to sculpt a city from the inside out.
