Jun Starkey, Josh Molina, Nick Welsh and Ryan P. Cruz join the genial host for a far and wide look at the week’s top local news stories, from Gabe Escobedo’s swift emergence as a front-runner for an SBUSD seat and Superintendent Hilda Maldonado’s corporate-style, team-building retreat, to the arrival of Monkeypox in the county and a scary spike in opioid overdoses, and the burning of Pride flags in the Valley and the latest on Ed St. George’s bid to build a hotel on the Westside. Plus: axe throwing, Krav Maga and the passing of Olivia Newton-John.
