Lyall Behrens hits the road — literally and figuratively — breaking down the New York Mayoral election results, his trip to San Luis Obispo, and why people in small towns get to be weird in peace.

He also gets into Howard University coming to Oakland, Ray Daniels' “you forget you're Black in L.A.” take, and the regional finger-pointing between Black folks.
