I heard a couple of good interviews, but now checking in six months later, the one-sided headlines with their ALL CAPS emotions make it clear it’s not worth my time. And I am a center, educated independent.
It starts with understanding why California is in such a pickle to begin fixing the core problems of affordability, public saftely, over regulation, etc. State of Gold breaks downs these issues and puts leaders in the limelight, championing sensible reform. Also, Jon for governor!
This show is a refreshing change to the rhetoric we constantly hear in California. Jon is thoughtful and comprehensive in his approach. I love how he probes into the issues promoting an environment of accountability. Keep it coming!
There are a few episodes that I found pretty straightforward and informative. Unfortunately, this tends to lean heavily to a discomforting right. I was hoping for a more balanced and sensible viewpoint. Im not getting it….
I love this and must go elsewhere to listen. Apple is an anti California people company. Last iPhone I will ever own or Apple product.
