Podcast appearances and mentions of lee ohanian

The good news for California governor Gavin Newsom is that his new podcast has the left and the right buzzing. The bad news is that neither side likes what is covered in his podcasts, as the governor makes nice with conservative and liberal provocateurs and thought leaders. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, discuss where Newsom's latest foray into podcasting comes up short; how a shortfall in the state's health budget may tie into his political re-branding (or is podcasting more about Newsom becoming a media kingpin?); plus differences in state and city approaches to California's homelessness issues. After that, with the NCAA's “March Madness” in high gear, the fellows discuss the altered state of Golden State collegiate athletics – Stanford, UCLA, and USC's changing fortunes and conferences. Recorded on March 27, 2025.

Los Angeles confronts the grim reality of a multi-year effort to clean up and rebuild after its devastating wildfires; Governor Gavin Newsom makes a big disaster-relief ask in Washington; and intrigue abounds in next year's gubernatorial race. Hoover Institution senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to reflect on a smarter approach to fire response and prevention and what the future holds for swift reconstruction and affordable property insurance. They also discuss whether former vice president Kamala Harris is a shoo-in if she runs next year to succeed Newsom, plus the contrast between how red and blue states court industries (Tennessee luring In-N-Out investment and Newsom wanting to double Sacramento's largesse for California's struggling film industry). Recorded on February 26, 2025.

The following episode was recorded on December 10, 2024. An adventurous year in California politics and policy ends with a special legislative session to “Trump-proof” the Golden State. Will a pair of would-be reformers – a newly elected mayor of San Francisco and a Los Angeles district attorney, both of whom ran against the status quo, be able to deliver the goods? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to reflect on 2024's lessons as well as this year's winners and losers, plus causes for California-based optimism come January 2025.  

Los Angeles's devastating wildfires have prompted a series of troubling questions, ranging from the city and county's reported lack of preparedness and apparently outdated water infrastructure to the crisis-management skills of state and local leaders. And are those same leaders capable of rebuilding both swiftly and in a commonsense manner, as opposed to years of regulatory gridlock? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to reflect on lessons learned from the wildfires, the impact on various political fortunes, plus can a Los Angeles already under pressure to present a more idealized version of itself in advance of the 2028 Summer Olympics – i.e., fewer homeless encampments, flowing traffic – remind the world that California is still capable of accomplishing great engineering tasks (unlike, say, the state's failed experiment with high-speed rail)? Recorded on January 30, 2025.

The verdict on California's November election? America's largest “blue” state emerged black-and-blue as voters sent bruising, non-progressive messages regarding public safety, wage increases, and future approval of local bonds. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State, including the political futures of vice president Kamala Harris and governor Gavin Newson (does she want his job?). They also discuss a special legislative session to “Trump-proof” the Golden State, plus the remote likelihood of Sacramento and Washington cooperating on changes to federal immigration policy. Recorded on November 20, 2024.

What to expect in a California election that shows some prominent big-city incumbents in trouble and an anti-crime ballot measure steamrolling to victory? As Election Day approaches, Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State including the spectacle of government-envisioned “tiny houses” with not-so-tiny costs. They also discuss what a non-endorsement in the presidential race says about the troubled state of the state's once-mightiest newspaper, and how Governor Gavin Newsom can move forward in 2025, depending on who becomes America's 47th president. Recorded on October 31, 2024.

Who are the winners and losers now that California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed off on hundreds of legislative bills? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss why the past month in Sacramento was good news for teen-abuse victim Paris Hilton (Newsom signed a bill she championed) and Los Angeles Clipper's owner Steve Ballmer (his new arena received a late-night alcohol exception); and bad news for Elon Musk (he didn't get his way on a controversial AI measure as his social-media feud with the governor continues). Possibly the worst news is for Californians fond of direct democracy and election integrity (Newsom vetoed a voter ID requirement). Then, the legislature approved a constitutional amendment altering California's recall process which voters will decide on in 2026.

The Democratic National Convention turns out to be a tale of two Californians – Vice President Kamala Harris becoming her party's standard-bearer; Governor Gavin Newsom left out of the speakers' lineup (other than a two-minute cameo during the roll-call vote). Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss in the Golden State including Harris and Newsom's reversals of fortune, the Golden State's struggles with job-retention, plus whether a Harris presidency can succeed where a Newsom governorship seems destined to fail (she wants to build three million new homes nationally in her first term; Newsom is far behind on his downsized goal of 2.5 million new California homes by the decade's end).

For the first time in 40 years, a Californian is set to become a major party's presidential nominee. Meanwhile, governor Gavin Newsom issues an order to remove homeless encampments from city streets and continues to push back against critics of California's $20 minimum wage for fast-food workers who claim that the new standard is a job-killer. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, discuss the Golden State including why vice president Kamala Harris' ascent to the top of the Democratic presidential ticket upsets the political order in her home state (would Newsom accept a cabinet post should she win?), plus upcoming milestones for two US presidents with California ties – the 50th anniversary of Richard Nixon's White House resignation and Herbert Hoover's 150th birthday.

While the Golden State struggles with the aftershock of its elevated fast-food minimum wage – California-based Rubio's Coastal Grill, home of the fish taco, is filing for bankruptcy – and the legislature has to deal with the approaching deadline for a new state budget, which invites fiscal and policy skullduggery. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both weekly contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind web channel, discuss the latest news in the Golden State including a nascent 2026 governor's race (will vice president Kamala Harris “pull a Nixon” and give it a go?), plus a fond remembrance of the late Bill Walton – native San Diegan, UCLA basketball legend, citizen activist – who passed away just days after his beloved Pac-12 Conference likewise bid farewell.

Did a preeminent California university handle campus protests the right way, and why can't the state prove that its homeless programs are working? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, discuss the latest news in the Golden State including third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. qualifying for California's November ballot, a fast-food wage hike that continues to cause economic heartburn, and Governor Gavin Newsom's return to wanderlust (this time, a mid-May sojourn to the Vatican to preach about the perils of climate change).

Recent economic news out of California isn't all that “golden:” 400,000 jobs shed and the nation's highest unemployment rate; and the Golden State soon to be demoted from fifth to six in terms of global economies.

Recent economic news out of California isn't all that “golden:” 400,000 jobs shed and the nation's highest unemployment rate; and the Golden State soon to be demoted from fifth to six in terms of global economies. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, discuss why the West Coast economy has gone south (think: hostile business and jobs climate); and what's behind governor Gavin Newsom's recent spate of a bad publicity run that includes a harsh re-examination of his college baseball career. Finally, weighing the life and legacy of the late O.J. Simpson – and revealing the fate of the infamous white Ford Bronco (spoiler alert: start at Dollywood).

California's Super Tuesday primary yielded a few surprises, including a low turnout that nearly doomed governor Newsom's pet ballot measure and a San Francisco electorate moving rightward on local police tactics and welfare requirements.

California's Super Tuesday primary yielded a few surprises, including a low turnout that nearly doomed governor Newsom's pet ballot measure and a San Francisco electorate moving rightward on local police tactics and welfare requirements. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, discuss election results, the controversy over Panera Bread and a gubernatorial chum seemingly exempted from a California minimum-wage increase for fast-food chains, plus the state legislature revisiting snack-food additives (potentially bad news for chips and Gatorade consumers), and the future of daylight savings time.

California's Proposition 1, a $6.38 billion bond addressing mental health treatment across the Golden State, seems destined for voter approval. Is it sound policy – and a sound expense for a state deeply in debt? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web […]

Is it sound policy – and a sound expense for a state deeply in debt? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the California, including a campaign to turn a coastal stretch of the Golden State into a new nation called “Pacifica”; the politics of “shrinkflation”; what this year's US Senate race says about California's top-two primary system; plus the legacy of the late C.C. Myers, who rebuilt the Santa Monica Freeway after 1994's Northridge Earthquake.

Four US Senate candidates gathered for the first televised debate in advance of California's March 5 primary; the state's alarming budget deficit exposes fundamental problems with spending and taxes; and what are the odds of Silicon Valley luminaries building a new city form scratch in the heart of rural Solano County?

Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the California, including Barbie's rough Academy Award treatment – no Best Director or Actress nod – and what that says about filmdom's perception of blockbusters and the female artists.

What did we learn in 2023? California governor Gavin Newsom's forays into national politics may have hurt his popularity back home; San Francisco's pre-summit emergency clean-up proved that urban sanitation, like fame, can be fleeting.

What did we learn in 2023? California governor Gavin Newsom's forays into national politics may have hurt his popularity back home; San Francisco's pre-summit emergency clean-up proved that urban sanitation, like fame, can be fleeting. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State, including how California's fiscal outlook went from a massive surplus to a titanic deficit, whether there's light at the end of the tunnel for the state's troubled high-speed rail project, plus Shohei Ohtani's future in Dodger blue – and maybe a dodger of state income taxes.

A tale of not two but three California cities: what some have suggested was a hypocritical sanitizing of San Francisco ahead of this week's APEC summit; the question of who and what caused a fire closing a portion of a Los Angeles freeway for weeks ahead; and in Sacramento, the 20th anniversary of Arnold Schwarzenegger […]

A tale of not two but three California cities: what some have suggested was a hypocritical sanitizing of San Francisco ahead of this week's APEC summit; the question of who and what caused a fire closing a portion of a Los Angeles freeway for weeks ahead; and in Sacramento, the 20th anniversary of Arnold Schwarzenegger taking office as California's 38th governor. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, join Hoover senior product manager Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State, including the addition of “disinformation” and ethnic studies classes (the latter now a graduation requirement) to California's K-12 curriculum.

As Sacramento's bill-signing season commences, Republican infighting is coming to Southern California, and does “Cincinnatus” need to return to office?

California's first tropical storm in over eight decades exposes both physical and emotional frailties; the Golden State's governor continues his shadow presidential campaign; and not a living Californian merits state “hall of fame” recognition.

Florida's governor comes to San Francisco and uses the city's decay as fodder for a presidential campaign ad, while improvement and innovation in California's K-12 schools remains elusive thanks to the state's political dynamics. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, join Hoover senior writer Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State, including the summer's first heat wave, the oddities of 4th of July on the West Coast, plus a Vanity Fair profile of a California overly obsessed with crime, homelessness, local nabobs, and trendy cuisine.

A lurid homicide in an upscale neighborhood underscores San Francisco's various crises. Meanwhile, California governor Gavin Newsom tours America's red states – begging the question of his interest in his day job. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, join Hoover senior writer Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State, including why Newsom's promise to build millions of new homes has fizzled as well as vice president Kamala Harris' inability to catch a break – her tour of Africa is overshadowed by Donald Trump's legal woes.

Why has California governor Gavin Newsom taken to denouncing Walgreens' drug policy (hint: abortion-pill availability) and what should happen with the Golden State's problematic high-speed rail project that's more “loco” than “motion”?

Why has California governor Gavin Newsom taken to denouncing Walgreens' drug policy (hint: abortion-pill availability) and what should happen with the Golden State's problematic high-speed rail project that's more “loco” than “motion”? Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's “California on Your Mind” web channel, discuss the latest in the Golden State including why Newsom chose not to deliver a State of the State address, fentanyl-plagued San Francisco revisiting its sanctuary policy, and California bracing for (sigh) another round of battering rainstorms.
