I loved hearing Jesse and Kerry discussing the Valks - they were such a good pair!! LOVED this episode and made me subscribe! 💜
A human-centered approach to exploring the current events shaping San Francisco, our state and our country. I really enjoyed the interview with the federal immigration court judge and felt such deep empathy for what she has been navigating under the current administration while simply trying to do her job.
First episode was surprisingly complex, but also FUNNY.
Second episode shows what’s wrong with the country that we keep appointing people to office who have no idea what they’re doing!
Good stuff, keep it up.
Really informative reporting on the first episode which looks at what happened when ICE repurposed a prison in a small California city. Highly recommend.
