Once bustling San Francisco neighborhoods such as Union Square and the Financial District have been plagued with high retail and office vacancy rates since the pandemic started five years ago. More than a third of all the office space in San Francisco is now vacant and hybrid schedules mean that even buildings that do have tenants don't fill up with workers each day. Union Square has also lost its luster as a shopping destination with most of its department stores shuttering. San Francisco's new mayor, Daniel Lurie, says he has plans to revive downtown. We talk about what it would take to refill and reuse commercial spaces, and bring people back to downtown. Guests: Robert Sammons, senior research director, Cushman & Wakefield Lauran Waxmann, reporter, San Francisco Chronicle Katie Buchanan, principal, design director and managing director of the San Francisco office, Gensler

[SEGMENT 2-1] Bad signs for Democrats 1 There are LOTS of bad signs for Democrats and their minions. If they are crying now, I say them this is only the beginning. They are about to get CRUSHED under the weight of Hurricane MAGA and the mandate of Americans. We lived under pure tyranny for 4 years, and prior to Trump 8 years under Obama. America asked for Obama, then soundly rejected him and his policies in 2016. Then in 2020 the cabal gave America the finger. Well in 2024 we gave them the fist! Listen to the media tell all that they fear about Trump. And as you listen tell me if they didn't do almost everything they fear?   [X] SB – Media on 2nd Trump term Mexico/Canada…annex Shoot visitors to the WH Violence like J6 Illegal to run against him Throw them in jail, persecute the media Rewrite the constitution Sent jail, minority groups, assassinate generals Ordering troops to attack citizens His base will try to kill people Take away your vote Senate and House paralyzed End of democracy Destruction of the DOJ; entirely transformed Everybody in the coup elevated Persecute enemies LGBTQ Last election Tear down our institution Purge the government of employees Use the military to squash protest Stay in office forever  [SEGMENT 2-2] Bad signs for Democrats 2   [X] SB – Jimmy Kimmel it's a terrible night Terrible night, women children immigrants science justice seniors allies NATO democracy decency   Yes, the Democrats got shellacked in the last election. And while that's a breath of fresh air, it's hardly the only sign that the political winds are changing. Let's dive into some of the “bad omens” for the Left that even they can't spin positively. Sign #1: Target Brings Back “Merry Christmas” Remember the days when retailers greeted us with “Happy Holidays” as if to tiptoe around the obvious? This year, Target's shelves are shamelessly decked with signs that say “Merry Christmas.” Maybe it's a minor detail, but it's clear: in retail at least, the “woke Christmas” is out and tradition is back in style. Is this a Targeted pivot away from Leftist culture wars? Sign #2: Barack Obama Goes Silent In a true sign of the times, Barack Obama has gone radio silent. Apparently, he's been avoiding the media since Election Day. Maybe he's hiding out with fellow critics who seem to have slithered down into their usual rat holes. Could it be that they're nursing bruises from the political ass-kicking of a lifetime? Or perhaps the Obamas joined all those celebrities who threatened to leave the country if Trump go re-elected? Regardless, if Obama and his ilk are smart, they have assessed their real political power and figured out that they have none. It's probably best that they sit things out for a while. Sign #3: Democrats Lose Their “Poop Map” Mayor London Breed like crapped her jeans as she lost to Levi Strauss heir Daniel Lurie. Breed, whose tenure began in 2017 brought sky-high crime and deteriorating quality of life so much so that one of America's most iconic cities became known for its "poop maps". These were given to tourist to guide them away from the rough areas of San Fran where vagrants were known to take a dump openly in the streets. The Chamber of Commerce should be beaming, as they can stop that BYO Poop Bag initiative planned for 2025. I'd wish Daniel Lurie luck, but the only direction for this city with London Breed gone is up. Sign #4: Harris's Campaign Debt Dilemma Barack Obama once declared, “Elections have consequences.” And Kamala Harris is learning the hard way. With her $20 million debt and over $1.6 billion spent, she's left looking like the Welfare Queen of campaigns. Perhaps the optics would be less tragic if she had something to show for it, other than a spectacular loss and a tab bigger than California's state debt. Sign #5: “Tampon Tim” Can't Even Hold His Own District Kamala's running mate, Tim Walz, lost his own district to Trump. So much for the Democratic power couple; Tampon Tim couldn't even hold his home turf. But hey, he still made a great addition to Harris's sinking ship. Beta males don't make good marketers to real men, for the record. Sign #6: Jack Smith Backpedals on Prosecuting Trump Jack Smith is backing off the Trump charges, citing “the technicality of prosecuting a sitting president.” Is he serious? If you believe that, I have a “winning strategy” from Kamala's campaign to sell you. My bet? Jack's future looks pretty dim. He's seeing the writing on the wall and realizing no sunglasses are going to help with the glare from this MAGA hurricane.  [SEGMENT 2-3] Dem influencer lament 1 Elections have consequences. So do actions. And Democrats pushed America way too far. For many of us, the next 4 years are super important. Because we have more years behind than we do ahead. So we will relish this win as we should. Because while the win is for us and feels good, the real win is for America and our children and grandchildren. Few realize how important this win was, because no child should experience the political fear we have over the past few elections. But now is our time to truly right the ship. A Democrat “influencer” and his ilk are finally experiencing what I've been experiencing for over a decade. Listen to him explain what's happening to them. [X] SB – Dem influencer Lost 5000 subscribers Never go down, they go up; All hemorrhaging subscribers; record cancellations of paid memberships The importance of influence  [SEGMENT 2-4] Dem influencer lament 2 [X] SB – Jimmy Kimmel crying The View says that Trump will take them off the air. Really? The thing that will take The View off the air is the viewpoint of the women on The View. Listen as one woman tries to help them make sense of their loss, but they are having none of it. [X] SB – The View The way that the Left speaks to its voters…like joy and inclusiveness They need to be introspective      Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

It's not true, no one grows up saying, ‘I wanna be homeless when I'm older” - Daniel Lurie   “There are still a lot of good things happening around us and we need to kinda pull together during times like this. And so, some of us have the responsibility of reminding our friends, and our peers, and other leaders in the community that they are a force for good.” - Daniel Lurie

South Africa has a new teen popstar! His name is Daniel Lurie, he’s 16 years old, and even so young, he’s worked with some big names in the industry – including Daniel Baron, and now, Mr Kwesta Ngud DaKar! He chatted to Carl Wastie on the Coca-Cola Top40SA on Sat, 20 Oct 2018, about his new single, ‘Rain Dance’, which features Kwesta. The track is all about having faith, as a human race, no matter your colour, age or creed, uniting in one prayer, one song and one dance, to overcome drought, negativity and pain, so that our own personal dreams can come true, and so our dreams as a nation can flourish together under the blessing of rain. Sounds like a song for Cape Town, Beaufort West, and the other drought stricken areas of the Western Cape!

Tipping Point Community CEO Daniel Lurie talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about his organization's efforts to fight homelessness in San Francisco. He says it's all too easy to "not see" the incredible poverty and inequality in the Bay Area if you commute into Silicon Valley every day, which means people in tech must be educated about the problem if they're going to be part of the solution. Lurie calls on techies of means, the beneficiaries of "this incredible moment in time," to get involved in philanthropy. He argues that civic involvement won't last if it's mandated from the outside, and that companies must see it as a cultural priority, with the energy to help coming from the top of the org chart.
