The Move to Tacoma Podcast was started by Tacoma real estate agent Marguerite Martin back in 2015. While the original goal was to help make it easier for folks relocating to Tacoma learn about the city, the podcast quickly became a resource for locals as well. The podcast spawned other podcasts including Nerd Farmer, Interchangeable White Ladies, Citizen Tacoma, Crossing Division, We Art Tacoma, and eventually kicked off Channel253 in partnership with Erik Hanberg and producer Doug Mackey.
Marguerite interviewed politicians (including Tacoma’s mayor), business owners, artists, new Tacomans, longtime Tacomans, Tacoma historians, and so much more.
