Lounge Hi, I’m Martha Jackson — founder, host and voice behind The Bubble Lounge Podcast, a hyper-local media platform dedicated to celebrating the people, businesses, and stories that shape life in Highland Park and University Park. What began as a passion project has grown into a trusted community brand with hundreds of episodes, a highly engaged digital audience, and a reputation for spotlighting the heart of the Park Cities. As a longtime University Park resident, I love telling the stories that connect our community — from local sports and philanthropy to small business openings and neighborhood traditions. Being named University Park’s Citizen of the Year was an incredible honor and a reflection of the people and places that inspire my work every day. In addition to hosting The Bubble Lounge, I’m a contributing columnist for People Newspapers, where I share community-focused stories rooted in connection, curiosity, and a deep appreciation for local life. Through my platform, I bring together storytelling, strategy, and real conversation to create content that feels genuine, engaging, and relatable. Whether I’m behind the mic, writing a column, or sharing a neighborhood update, my goal is simple: to celebrate what makes the Park Cities special and create a space that informs, inspires, and brings people together. https://www.bubblelounge.net/sponsors daily 0.75 2026-04-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e360b95fe3a60d76a96a23/1679923752389-T1QGZ7PTFNFDVKRZ6JUH/IMG_2573.jpg
