Third Space Indy
Podcast Description
Third Space Indy is a podcast about the people shaping Indianapolis from the ground up. Host Michael Zarick sits down with community organizers, creatives, and neighborhood leaders to explore how we build connection in an age of disconnection. Each episode highlights the work being done to reimagine a more vibrant, inclusive, and rooted future — one conversation at a time.
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast explores themes related to community building, neighborhood dynamics, and the impact of the arts on social engagement. Episodes often highlight the efforts of local creatives, such as those from the Kan-Kan Cinema discussing unique film offerings, or artists like Megan Jefferson emphasizing the role of public art in fostering community connections.

Third Space Indy strives to connect people to their neighbors, inspire people to learn about their community, and drive action in those communities to create the lived environment those people want to exist within.
Third Space Indy is not a podcast, but an ideal to work towards in an effort to make the places we live more intertwined with the values of creating safe, comfortable, and livable spaces for everyone.

This week, I sat down with Brianna Garr-Bland, AKA DJ BriMix, at Blue Mind Coffee to talk about public transit, third spaces, and everything in between. Bri talked about how she got into DJing, why she loves riding the bus by choice, and how Blue Mind became her go-to community spot. We also got into why more people should give the bus a shot, and what it really means to have a third space in your life. I really enjoyed chatting with Bri today about buses, DJing, and community, and beyond. I hope you enjoy.
