Our guest on this week’s Listen Frontier podcast is Matt Carney. Carney, 28, was recently hired to oversee ROOT Tulsa.

Never heard of ROOT? That’s about to change.

ROOT is philanthropist George Kaiser’s mobile app — and soon-to-be website — for everything Tulsa.

Looking for something to do? ROOT has an exhaustive list of current events. Wondering what the Philbrook Museum is all about? ROOT has a comprehensive description.

In addition, the “urban field guide” includes stories about Tulsa and guides to the best of the best in local arts, entertainment and dining.

If you have information or events you would like to include on the ROOT app, email it events@roottulsa.com.

For more information about ROOT, go to roottulsa.com.

iPhone users can download the app from the App Store. The ROOT app will not be available on android phones until later this year.
