Welcome to Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem - the Bay Area's premier radio talk show about organic gardening in the Bay Area! This morning Edie interviewed a guest, Jim Salyard of Filoli, to talk about what's going on at the famous Garden and Mansion a few miles south of San Francisco. What's currently large and looming in the gardens is Thomas Danbo's larger-than-life Trolls exhibit. These are gigantic, oversized "garden trolls" that are part of a larger story weaved by the artist; they're on display in various places in the Filoli grounds through November of this year as part of their "Save the Humans" world tour.We also featured audio that Edie recorded on-site of the artist, Thomas Danbo, talking about his work and this exhibit, the Trolls and their story, and more about the "world tour" they are engaging upon.

In Berkeley Talks episode 228, Tony Reames, a professor of environmental justice at the University of Michigan, discusses how the U.S. energy system has persistently harmed marginalized communities, a result of legacies of government-sanctioned policies, like redlining, land theft and resource extraction. He goes on to emphasize the need for intentional efforts to undo these harms. “When we think about energy justice, the goal is to achieve equity in both the social and economic participation in our energy system,” says Reames, who served as deputy director for energy justice at the U.S. Department of Energy during the Biden-Harris administration.In 2015, he says, some 14% of U.S. households couldn't afford their energy bills, and 21% had to decide between buying food and medicine or paying their energy bills. Eleven percent were keeping their homes at an unhealthy temperature, either too hot or too cold, because they couldn't afford energy or they couldn't repair their HVAC system. Higher proportions of income spent on energy are linked to negative health outcomes, including premature deaths and a decrease in average life expectancy. “Black households are more likely to live in communities in the shadows of fossil fuel generation,” says Reames. “Other communities of color are first and worst to experience the impact of climate emergencies. Communities with economies that rely on fossil fuels experience harm as our energy economy shifts. Think about predominantly white communities in Appalachia, offshore drilling communities on the Gulf of Mexico, and refining communities like Richmond here in the Bay Area.”Although no country explicitly guarantees equal access to energy as a right in its laws, he says, he advocates for using important principles — like fairness, inclusion and repairing harm — to understand who is being left out or treated unfairly in our energy system, and how to guide our energy policies so they are more just and equitable. This event took place on Dec. 4, 2024, as part of UC Berkeley's Charles M. and Martha Hitchcock Lectures.Watch a video of the conversation on the Graduate Lectures website.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts).Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Photo courtesy of Tony Reames.

Here's a segment from our series, Bay Poets. This one reminds us how Bay Area communities are intertwined with our family and friends in Los Angeles. Poet soledad con carne gives us a vision in the form of a poem with their piece “Pochequis Christ.”
On this week's episode of "Sights + Sounds Picks," educator Ricardo Tavarez gives his arts and culture suggestions happening in the Bay Area.
Alexandre Lazarow isn't your typical VC.He's the author of Out-Innovate, a global venture capitalist, and the founder of Fluent Ventures.In this episode, we talk about what founders in Nairobi, São Paulo, and Jakarta know that Silicon Valley often misses.We unpack why the best ideas are coming from unexpected places, how fintech is shaking up the global economy, and what the future of VC looks like beyond the Bay Area.If you're building something big outside the bubble, this one's for you.Hosted by Shane Ray Martin, investor, author, and certified peace mediator helping founders build, scale, and raise with purpose.
The ongoing Los Angeles protests started with ICE raids. Not a new thing in concept, but a new thing in tone and target. We're talking work sites, immigration courts, restaurants — not jails or prisons, not the places where even the most progressive voices might begrudgingly agree law enforcement has some claim. But California law has essentially blocked ICE from accessing inmates for deportation. So instead of going after the people most would agree should be first in line, they're now going after people in public-facing jobs and community spaces. It's one thing to talk about enforcement — it's another when that enforcement happens where families eat or work.And that's the flashpoint. Trump said he'd deliver the biggest deportation effort in U.S. history. That promise means numbers, and numbers mean sympathy eventually bleeds in. I assumed it would come when a grandma running a family bakery got dragged out on camera. Instead, we're here — people in court, people in the kitchen, being targeted. This was always going to happen. When you aim big, you eventually hit someone the public doesn't want you to hit. And in a city like L.A., that means people are going to show up in the streets.Violence, Protest, and the California ReflexProtesting in California isn't unusual. It's part of the culture. Go look at Instagram stories from anyone in L.A. or the Bay Area — if something controversial is happening, people are in the streets. It's not performative in a bad way; it's performative in the literal sense. It's how people express politics. But with that comes another layer. The violence.There's a slice of every major California protest that's just there for the bricks, the Molotovs, the chaos. Whether they're accelerationists or just anarchists, they're consistent. And that's the problem. The damage they do isn't proportional — it's cinematic. It's what ends up on cable news and social media. And if the goal is to change hearts and minds about immigration policy, burning cop cars and smashing windows makes that harder, not easier.Where Are the Adults?This is where leadership matters. Donald Trump's giving about 20% of his attention to this. Maybe less. He's more engaged with Iran and China. The ICE moves feel reflexive, not strategic. They hit resistance, they escalate. Federalizing the National Guard, deploying Marines — it's blunt-force governance. It's power without precision. What you really need is coordination with the local officials. Instead, we've got a shouting match.Gavin Newsom says “arrest me.” Karen Bass echoes that. But neither is engaging with the reality on the ground. They're acting like Trump is literally smashing windows. And maybe that's useful for the national narrative, but it's not leadership. The onus is on them — Newsom, Bass, the people closest to the problem — to take the lead in condemning the violence. But they won't even acknowledge it. And so we spiral.The truth is, most of these protests are peaceful. But the few that aren't are the ones that define the story. That was the lesson of 2020. And yet here we are again, learning it all over. It's a noble cause, absolutely. But when you ignore the violence — when you pretend it doesn't matter — you lose the moral high ground. And right now, nobody's looking particularly adult in the room.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:01:33 - LA Protests00:18:45 - Interview with Rep.

Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. In the gritty streets of California's Bay Area, former police officer Janelle Perez patrolled neighborhoods ravaged by gang violence, battling not only criminal organizations but also the very department she once proudly served. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “I came into law enforcement with purpose,” Janelle shared during an interview on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show which is featured as a free podcast episode available on their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and many podcast platforms. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “But I never imagined that the hardest fight I'd face wouldn't be with the gangs, but with my own department.” Janelle Perez is a former Bay Area police officer whose career was defined by front-line encounters with violent gangs like the Sureños, Norteños, and Wah Ching, organized groups deeply rooted in California's urban corridors which also grew into the suburbs. In her role, she confronted everything from drug trafficking to gangland turf wars fueled by stolen firearms and fear. But her story doesn't end with arrests and patrols. Her memoir, The Moral Police, tells a deeper story. It chronicles her unexpected and painful descent from decorated officer to plaintiff in a courtroom battle against the police department that dismissed her. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Perez was fired after eight months with the Roseville Police Department, she says for an off-duty relationship with a fellow officer during her separation. She took her case to the court, citing gender discrimination and privacy violations. Her battle stretched across seven years and reached the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, where she initially won. But that victory was later overturned. “It wasn't just a legal fight,” Janelle said. Janelle, a Penn State graduate in Justice Administration and Sociology, became a voice for reform and an advocate for female leadership in law enforcement. In her podcast interviews and media appearances, she says that the justice system often fails its own, especially when gender dynamics and departmental politics collide. Throughout her time in law enforcement, Perez worked in communities where gangs weren't just a threat, they were a way of life. From the Eddy Rock and Knock Out Posse gangs in San Francisco to major prison gangs like the Mexican Mafia, Nuestra Familia, and Aryan Brotherhood, she navigated a violent landscape that demanded vigilance, intuition, and resilience. “These gangs enforce their own kind of law,” Perez explained. “And when the actual justice system fails from the inside, it becomes hard to tell who you're really fighting.” Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Statistics underscore the challenges she faced. By the early 1990s, California had become a hub for gang activity, with thousands of organized groups and hundreds of thousands of members. Urban centers like Oakland, San Jose, and Richmond became battlegrounds where gang-related homicides and turf wars eclipsed many other forms of crime. According to national surveys, gang membership and criminal incidents surged between 1991 and 1993, peaking at over half a million members and hundreds of thousands of gang-related crimes. In these conditions, law enforcement officers walk a razor-thin line. “When you're confronting people who operate by their own rules, you expect your department to have your back,” Janelle said. “But that's not always the case. And that's what hurts the most.” The Moral Police doesn't just delve into the systemic flaws of the police system. It's a call for accountability, leadership, and reform. Through her writing, radio interviews, and podcast appearances, Janelle Perez shines a light on the importance of transparency in law enforcement—especially when those in power misuse it. You can listen to her stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Her story resonates across social platforms and professional networks, drawing attention from news outlets and discussion forums alike. The Facebook and Instagram comments are filled with encouragement. LinkedIn readers are engaging with posts about her on workplace equity and integrity. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. “I wanted to inspire others not to stay silent. Whether you're in law enforcement, education, or tech, speak up when something is wrong,” she said. “You shouldn't have to lose your job to hold leadership accountable.” Now, Janelle continues to share her journey and advocate for those who feel silenced within institutions meant to protect and serve. Her podcast appearances are gaining momentum, and her book is sparking conversation in communities far beyond California. Her story is about much more than a badge. It's about courage, conviction, and confronting the battles that exist both outside and within the blue line. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. You can follow updates and advocacy through our social media channels and find The Moral Police wherever books are sold. Listen to her full interview on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website for free, also on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or most major podcast platforms.

This episode's dropping in June—and if you're listening the day, week, or even month it's released, well, you already know that. I've been thinking about adding these time stamps to each episode moving forward. It just helps frame the conversation, especially considering how fast things are changing. I just got back from a swing through California—starting up in the Bay Area and making my way down through Pasadena and LA. I met with some brilliant creatives and brand leaders to talk shop about the market, the mood, and where things stand right now. And if there's one thing we can all count on these days, it's the unpredictability of... well, everything. Between extreme weather events, climate challenges, and an ever-shifting political landscape—again, not pointing fingers here—just acknowledging how these forces are impacting the shelter space in very real ways. So, moving forward, expect more context in these intros, and more conversations focused on market dynamics—specification, supply chain challenges, and how brands are staying sharp with costs, design, and materials. Today's guest is Alexander Dornbracht, Vice President and General Manager of Kallista and Robern, both under the Kohler umbrella. Alex literally grew up in this industry—his family business was in the same space—so he knows it inside and out. And he's here to give us an unfiltered look at what's really happening out there.

Culture shapes how we see the world—but often in ways that distort what's true. It elevates feelings over truth, self-fulfillment over sacrifice, and emotional comfort over obedience. But Jesus calls us to something better. As families, we're meant to walk in spiritual truth—not cultural trends. That means building a shared identity centered on Jesus, openly sharing our stories of His faithfulness, and treasuring God's Word together. It means creating a home where grace is practiced, repentance is modeled, forgiveness is freely given, and each person is honored for who God made them to be. We choose humility over pride, truth over emotion, and connection to God's family—the Church—over isolation. In a world pulling us in every direction, we're invited to live with intention, shaping families marked by truth, devotion, and a love that always points back to Jesus.You can join our OneLife Sunday morning gatherings via livestream at 8:45am and 10:30am CST every Sunday morning.

Anthony Veneziale and Aneesa Folds return to the podcast with the same brilliance and warmth that made their first appearances unforgettable—this time teaming up to talk about their new boundary-breaking musical, Co-Founders, premiering at ACT in San Francisco. With its Bay Area hip hop roots, tech satire, and cutting-edge stage visuals powered by Unreal Engine, the show challenges both theatrical norms and late-stage capitalism, all while telling a deeply personal story about representation, equity, and belonging. We unpack the eight-year journey behind the show's creation, how Aneesa came aboard, and how both artists bring authenticity and heart into every moment—onstage and off. We also dive into hip hop's regional influence on the show's score, the emotional toll of being labeled a “breakout star,” and why community and kindness are non-negotiable parts of the creative process. And if that's not enough, we improvise the plot of a musical called Mystical Desperate Zebras. This episode is a celebration of art that disrupts, heals, and uplifts—don't miss it. Anthony Veneziale is a Tony Award-winning co-creator of Freestyle Love Supreme and co-founder of FLS Academy. He's known for blending freestyle rap with neuroscience and education to foster creativity and collaboration. Aneesa Folds made her Broadway debut in Freestyle Love Supreme and has since become a standout performer and educator, known for her powerhouse presence and vibrant improvisational skills. Together, they now star in Co-Founders, a new musical blending activism, technology, and Bay Area hip hop culture.
