Each week, Tiny Desk Radio hosts Bobby Carter and Anamaria Sayre present three Tiny Desk concerts and share how these memorable (and sometimes viral) moments came together. You'll hear world-class musicians from the worlds of pop, jazz, classical, Americana, hip-hop, R&B and more stripping down their sound for a concert series that's unlike anything else on the internet — or the radio.

A pedestrian waits to cross Roosevelt Boulevard, in Philadelphia, Tuesday, April 19, 2022.

Driving can be dangerous with cars traversing between inner and outer lanes, but biking or walking on the boulevard can be even worse with some pedestrian crossings longer than a football field and taking four light cycles to cross.
