The Mayor Who Changed Baltimore | Sommer Time Podcast

The Mayor Who Changed Baltimore | Sommer Time Podcast

Before becoming one of the youngest mayors in U.S. history, Brandon M. Scott was just a kid from Park Heights with a dream to change his city. On this powerful episode of Sommer Time Podcast, host Sommer Hill sits down with Baltimore’s 52nd Mayor to talk about leadership, legacy, and the real story behind Baltimore’s evolution.

Mayor Scott opens up about his journey from growing up during the crack era to becoming the city’s youngest mayor in over a century — and the first to be re-elected in more than 20 years. He shares his personal motivations, the realities of leadership, and the work behind reducing gun violence by historic numbers.

From politics to personal reflection, this conversation gives a human look at the man behind the mayor — one grounded in authenticity, faith, and community.

🎧 Tune in for:

  • What it was like growing up in Park Heights during Baltimore’s toughest years
  • The moment that inspired him to become mayor at just 6 years old
  • How Baltimore cut homicides by 30% and shootings by 20%
  • The real story behind his leadership style — and why authenticity matters
  • Why Baltimore is more than The Wire — it’s a story of resilience, history, and hope

✨ This episode isn’t just about politics — it’s about purpose, perseverance, and the power of showing up for your city.
