For those in the know, it's been a long road from where it began to where women's professional basketball is today. The WNBA got its start in 1997, but it wasn't the first women's league. The women's professional basketball league formed in 1978 with franchises across the country, even a team in San Francisco—the Pioneers. And at the same time the W was getting its start, the American Basketball League was working to get more women on the court, too. While the WBL and ABL didn't last, their formation spoke of a craving to see women's basketball teams compete and to see more women hoop. And now, the WNBA, almost 30 years later, is not only surviving—it's thriving, reaching a golden hour of popularity, global attention, and the kind of popularity it's been seeking all along. KCBS reporters Mary Hughes and Holly Quan take a deep dive into the rise of women's basketball on this edition of In Depth.

San Francisco is known for a lot of things - the Golden Gate Bridge, Karl the Fog, the Giants - but it's also known as a haven for the foodie, from a square slice of pizza from Golden Boy Pizza to a mission style burrito from La Taqueria and about a million other delights in between. The food scene in the city by the bay is definitely elite, but has it always been that way? And in these post-pandemic times, has that scene changed for the better - or for the worse? We'll dive into those questions and more with Trevor Felch, food, travel, and drinks writer. You might recognize his name from food and wine reviews in the Nob Hill Gazette or from several Fodor's Guidebooks to San Francisco and other parts of the Bay Area. He's also the author of ‘San Francisco Cocktails' and of ‘City Eats San Francisco' which came out earlier this year.

We are drawing ever closer to November and to when America will decide who will be the next president. According to most polls - at least so far - Vice President Kamala Harris holds a narrow lead over former President Donald Trump. But here in California, especially among Latino voters, support seems to be tipping a bit more blue. A recent statewide survey has found that Harris has a strong lead over Trump among California's Latino communities - 60% choosing Harris, 28% with Trump. But this poll looked at so much more when it comes to what Latino voters are concerned about this election season. To help us delve deeper into all this, KCBS Radio's Mary Hughes is joined by Christian Arana, vice president of civic power and policy at the Latino Community Foundation, which conducted the poll. The LCF is the nation's largest Latino surveying organization, working to invest in Latino-led organizations and to increase political participation of Latinos in California.

KCBS Radio's Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart host a panel of experts to discuss the question - what is the state of mental health, around the Bay Area and beyond? Panel guests: Nicole Stelter, Ph.D., LMFT, Director of Behavioral Health, Clinical Strategy & Programs at Blue Shield of California Juan Acosta, mental health advocate, LGBTQ activist, content creator and public speaker Amanda Lai, Bay Area high school student & Mind Out Loud participant Lesley Garcia, MS, Director of Programs, Contra Costa Crisis Center This episode is part of Audacy's I'm Listening initiative, which aims to encourage those who are dealing with mental health issues to understand they are not alone.

Research shows that climate change isn't just something that's negatively affecting the planet, it's having a deep impact on our mental health as well. Every new wildfire, every flash flood, every heatwave brings on another level of eco-anxiety in many people. A survey conducted by UNDP, Oxford University and GeoPoll, found that 56% of respondents think at least once a week about the problems caused by the climate situation and these feelings can be even stronger in younger people. Of course, it can feel overwhelming to see all that our environment is going through and wonder what can be done - or to have experienced an extreme weather event first-hand, to carry trauma from that and not know how to heal from it. It's a big conversation and so we're turning to Jennifer Silverstein, a licensed clinical social worker in Sonoma County, who is working to build resilient communities, especially for the youngest and most vulnerable members, that can face unfolding ecological crises.
One thing you learn as a Californian is that fire season - at least for the last 10 years or so - can be during almost any season. We've seen fires grow hotter, bigger - and spread even faster, with seemingly more frequency, too. However, evolving right along with these blazes is CalFire. KCBS has looked at wildfires from many angles and now we are turning to the agency that takes them on - by land, by air, and everywhere in between, and are joined by Joe Tyler, director and fire chief at CalFire.
