Get ready for this one. Absolutely absurd. We tricked another government official into sitting in our interrogation room! Mary Ann Baldwin is a well-connected Raleigh City Councilmember. She has been a crucial leader in the Innovate Raleigh initiative, along with numerous other cool projects.

Oh yeah…the camera hit our 30 minute limit. Deal with it. We had cool shit to talk about because the Triangle is going places. Watch this interview to understand why. If you’re scared of progress, get a dog! We’re going places and we need government officials like this to create the environment and get the hell out of the way! (Mary Ann is on board with this idea). Follow her on Twitter @MaryAnnBaldwin.
