Measure J in Sonoma County wants to ban “factory farms” and force major poultry and dairy farms to downsize or shut down by limiting the number of animals a single farm can raise. The issue has been hotly contested in Sonoma, a major producer of milk, eggs, beef and poultry for the region and state. The measure specifically targets “concentrated animal feeding operations,” known as CAFOs, which backers claim are inhumane and detrimental to the environment. But opponents say the measure does nothing to improve animal welfare and would instead drive humane and ecologically-friendly farms out of business. We'll talk about Measure J and how it could impact farming in Sonoma County and beyond. Guests: Mike Weber, farmer, Weber Family Farms - a poultry farm in Petaluma Cassie King, spokesperson, Direct Action Everywhere Bay Area - a group that advocates for animal rights and is part of the Coalition to End Factory Farming, the group that started Measure J in Sonoma Phil Barber, reporter, Santa Rosa Press Democrat

Sonoma County is trying to set a trend for other cities in banning the construction of new gas stations. In 2021, Petaluma became the first city in the whole country to do so. Now nearly half of the county has followed suit, including Santa Rosa. For the residents who've pushed this forward, these bans are a small but important step to fighting climate change, in a county that has experienced some of the worst wildfires in the state.

To be the greatest of all time at anything requires hard work, dedication, and usually a little bit of luck. But keep in mind, not every GOAT is sports related.  Technically, there is a greatest TV watcher of all time… But the subject of today's show is no couch potato.  He's been on the cover of magazines, cereal boxes, and posters hanging on the wall of most guys who grew up in the 90's – the one and only, his Airness, Michael Jordan.  Jordan changed the landscape of the NBA once he got in the league.  Winning world championships, slam dunk contests, and generally making the competition look like amateurs when he was in his prime.  But the stories that have come to light over the years don't paint a picture of Jordan being the best teammate.  He defended his position in the recent documentary, The Last Dance, but did we hear all the stories?  What could MJ have done to land him in the courtroom today?  Come fly with me as we roll through the Michael Jordan episode of AHC Podcast.       Intro music credits: Title: Finally The Sun - Audio Hertz / Crossfit 2021 (No Copyright Music) Video Link: https://youtu.be/bdf82dDHn_4 Genre Music: Trap - Gym - Workout - Sport - Exercise at Home - Gaming     Citations: Dougherty, J.

Austin Murphy takes us on a whirlwind ride through his 33 years of writing for Sports Illustrated in the magazine's halcyon days. Hear how hanging out with Warren Sapp ended in a $150 cab ride. Travel with Lance Armstrong through his reign and fall as cycling's king. Go with swimsuit models to Necker Island, where a discussion with Heidi Klum turns to . . . the fall of the Berlin Wall. Austin also provides insight about how he reinvented himself after being let go by SI in 2017. He tells of taking the fight to the universe as an Amazon delivery driver before finding his way back to journalism as a newspaper reporter covering everything but sports.   Murphy wrote thousands of articles for Sports Illustrated and its website, SI.com from 1984 until 2017. About 140 of his stories were featured on the magazine's cover – once a status symbol in the world of sports. Austin covered 10 Super Bowls, eight Olympics, eight Tours de France, four Stanley Cup Finals, and a dozen college football national championship games. Oh, and he also covered the Calgary Stampede rodeo in Alberta, Canada. Some years for SI, he was on the road in the U.S. and Europe as many as 100 to 200 days a year. He interviewed Bono, Brad Pitt and five Presidents: Gerald Ford, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump.   His journalism career began as a sports reporter for the Bucks County Courier Times in Pennsylvania and then the Chronicle in Batavia, Ill. near Chicago. Sports Illustrated hired Austin in ‘84 after he sent the magazine his humorous essay about how he disappointed his father by quitting the football team at Colgate University, where he earned a Bachler of Arts degree in English literature. Originally hired as a fact-checker, Austin quickly moved to the National Hockey League beat at SI. He eventually moved up the ranks to senior writer, primarily covering the NFL, college football and the Tour de France.   In May 2017, Murphy lost his job at Sports Illustrated in a round of corporate downsizing by the magazine's owner, Time Inc. He ended up delivering packages for Amazon – making $17 an hour – for five months in 2018 and '19. Austin wrote about that experience at Amazon for The Atlantic, and the essay went viral. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/12/what-its-like-to-deliver-packages-for-amazon/578986/ That led to his current job as a general news reporter at Santa Rosa Press Democrat in California.   Murphy is the author of three books: ·  “The Sweet Season: A Sportswriter Rediscovers Football, Family, and a Bit of Faith at Minnesota's St. John's University” ·  “How Tough Could It Be? The Trials and Errors of a Sportswriter Turned Stay-at-Home Dad” ·  Saturday Rules: A Season with the Trojans and Domers (and Gators and Buckeyes and Wolverines)   Read more about his time working for Amazon in the Colgate Magazine: https://news.colgate.edu/magazine/2020/08/07/deliverance-a-laid-off-sportswriters-roundabout-route-to-reinvention/   Follow Austin on Twitter: @ausmurph88 Learn more about your ad choices.

The city of Santa Rosa is saying farewell to its bard. Santa Rosa Press Democrat columnist Gaye Lebaron has retired after a 65-year career at the paper and an estimated 8,500 columns. “Few newspaper columnists have ever been so closely associated with one city for so long,” writes the Press Democrat's editorial board, “Herb Caen and San Francisco, Mike Royko and Chicago, Gaye LeBaron and Santa Rosa.” In addition to writing a daily newspaper column for more than 40 years Lebaron has also written several books about Santa Rosa and Sonoma County history. She joins us to talk about the county's past and present and what it means to spend more than six decades writing about the place she lives and loves.

In this episode, we chat with the VP of Human Resources at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Kristin Hamwey. Our conversation revolves around internship interviews, how to approach them correctly, how to be prepared for them, and what we should avoid doing in them. Kristin shared some examples of networking done right, what she looks for in a candidate during an interview, and much more. If you enjoyed the show, please leave us a five-star iTunes review.   **********************************************************************"Don't be afraid of making that connection with someone in sports. You may not get any answer, but, someday you will. And I assure you it will open doors." Kristin Hamwey.  Kristin is an accomplished Human Resources Executive with over 30 years of experience helping organizations reach their goals and succeed. She is a creative thinker, focused on matching the needs and skills of employees with the mission of the organization they work for.  Kristin worked for 25 years in the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. She started as Human Resources Director in 1985, then she acted as Operations Manager and Sales Manager, finally spending another 7 years as Human Resources Director before joining the Buccaneers.  Today, Kristin shared excellent insights on how candidates should prepare for an internship interview. She explained how they almost immediately can tell the difference between someone ready for an interview and someone just logging in on Zoom to join a meeting on their calendar.  We also talked about approaching interviews from a different perspective, understanding the person interviewing us is trying to solve a problem and is hoping WE are the person they're looking for.

August 27, 2021-- Alicia Bales talks with local journalists Colin Atagi of the Santa Rosa Press Democrat and Justine Frederiksen of the Ukiah Daily Journal about the week's local headlines, including the Cache Fire in Lake County and the surge in hospitalizations and deaths in Mendocino County due to the Delta variant.

Photo:  Russian River, California. #PacificWatch: Severe drought warning; water rationing begins, Russian River to Santa Clara County. @JCBlissCalifornia drought enters dangerous territory. What’s ahead for fish, farms and cities -- In just a few weeks, California’s water conditions have gone from bad to terrible. Sacramento residents have been asked to cut water usage 10%. Their counterparts on the Russian River are being told to reduce their consumption 20%. Sacramento Bee  Mandatory restrictions coming to Santa Clara County as feds cut water supply -- In the latest and possibly most severe evidence yet of California’s worsening drought, the federal government on Wednesday announced it will cut water deliveries to urban areas it serves by more than half — and to zero for many farmers across the Central Valley.  San Jose Mercury State orders sweeping water restrictions for towns, vineyards along Russian River -- Several communities and hundreds of vineyards in California’s Wine Country are being cut off from their water supply because there’s not enough water to go around. San Francisco Chronicle State orders halt to hundreds of Russian River diversions in Sonoma, Mendocino counties as drought imperils supplies -- The crackdown affects grape growers and other farm producers, as well as rural residents and several communities along the upper river — from Healdburg north to Ukiah — where groundwater and other rights are likely to be used more heavily in the coming months to keep crops alive and taps flowing.

The commitment to acting on climate change by the Biden administration is attracting much attention, as President Biden outlines his agenda and appoints individuals to carry it out across the government. But just as important, as they have always been, are steps being taken by states to curb emissions and promote cleaner forms of energy. And no state has been more of a leader on these issues than California. In this edition of Columbia Energy Exchange, host Bill Loveless talks to two of the leading energy reporters in California, which has been hard hit by the pandemic even as it copes with wildfires and other environmental disasters made worse by climate change. Sammy Roth covers energy for the Los Angeles Times and writes the weekly “Boiling Point”. He previously reported for the Desert Sun and USA Today, where he focused on renewable energy, climate change, electric utilities and public lands. He holds a bachelor of arts in sustainable development from Columbia University, where he was the editor in chief of the Columbia Daily Spectator. J.D. Morris is a business reporter covering PG&E and the coronavirus for the San Francisco Chronicle. Before joining the Chronicle, he was the Sonoma County government reporter for the Santa Rosa Press Democrat, where he was among journalists awarded a Pulitzer Prize for their coverage of the 2017 North Bay wildfires. Both Sammy and J.D. are past participants in the Energy Journalism Initiative at the Center on Global Energy Policy which helps energy journalists gain a deeper understanding of complex issues associated with the beat. CGEP is now accepting applications from energy journalists for the 2021 EJI seminar in June. More information is available on the CGEP website. In their conversation, Bill, Sammy and J.D. discuss the impact of the pandemic in California and the implications of it for efforts to address climate change. They also delve into the status of various climate policies undertaken in the Golden State, including its cap-and-trade program and steps taken at the state and local level to promote electric vehicles and restrict installation of natural gas service in new residential and commercial buildings.

Former San Francisco Chronicle and Santa Rosa Press Democrat sportswriter Lowell Cohn’s career spans four decades. In his new memoir “Gloves Off” he revisits some of the most memorable moments, from his relationship with legendary 49ers coach Bill Walsh to the rise of Warriors phenomenon Steph Curry. We talk with Cohn about his career, the book, and how sportswriting has changed in the last 40 years.

Berkeley, California, is situated on the east shore of the San Francisco Bay. It’s a picturesque college town, known today for being the most liberal city in the U.S. A decade after the events to be recounted here, Berkeley was the epicenter of the counterculture movement, home to hippies and anarchists who flocked to the Bay Area from around the world. But before free love and bell bottoms gave this California city an identity that lasts even still, it was just another place in the U.S — where families raised children and worked toward the American dream. Even then, it was a beautiful city; its air fragrant with wild poppy and eucalyptus ... yet the dream for some here would melt into wickedness. Even the best home, the best grades, the best life couldn’t save at least one little girl... from something... so big… so bad… a girl who wanted a pet parakeet... and carried a picture of her poodle Hoagy next to photos of her classmate... in her little... red... wallet. ---- *From the archives of* The San Francisco Examiner, Oakland Tribune, San Francisco Chronicle,  San Mateo Times, Roseville Press-Times, Associated Press, Reuters, Santa Rosa Press Democrat, New York Daily News, United Press International, *Book:* Shallow Grave in Trinity County by Harry Farrell. ~ *Researched and Written by F.T Norton* *Hosted and Co-Written by Jack Luna* *Produced by The Operator* Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dark-topic/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Grant Cohn of the Santa Rosa Press Democrat joins the program to discuss the San Francisco 49ers offseason. 

Could Washington, along with five other Pac-12 schools leave the Pac-12 to join an expanded Big 12. The Big 12 has ten teams, which would make this a large 16 team conference and virtually guarantee the winner of the conference would make the football Final Four, but could even open up the door for a second place team to make it as well. Jimmy Graham is going to be a free agent. We're still frustrated by how he was used here in Seattle. He was never a blocking tight end, yet that's how he was often used. LJ Collier isn't a bust yet, but he's trending in that direction. The Hawks are going to need him to raise the bar next season. Grant Cohn of the Santa Rosa Press Democrat weighs in on the 49ers. Is Brady really going to end up in Santa Clara?

Earlier we checked in with Nate Bukaty in Kansas City to get the vibe of the city after the Chiefs victory. This hour, we find out how things are going in the Bay Area with the Santa Rosa Press Democrat's Grant Cohn. Well, we have to talk about it at some point; the Dawgs lose again. They're now 2-8 in the Pac-12, and 2-9 over their last eleven games. What's going on with this basketball team? We look for answers from Donald Watts. We finally found out what Tom Brady's picture was all about. After all the speculation over the last four days, it turned out to just be an ad for Hulu. Unbelievable. Richard Sherman didn't have much to say after last night's game. Odd that he suddenly doesn't want to talk. The Niners loss made us wonder, which Seahawks Super Bowl loss would you rather turn into a win, XL or IL? Beating Pittsburgh may have changed the culture of winning in this town, but beating the Patriots would have put us that much closer to being a dynasty, and the fall-off that followed might not have happened.

Lucille Miller was a California housewife who, in 1964, was accused of murdering her dentist husband in a fiery accident on a lonely road through a lemon grove. The ensuing case is one of the most muddled and morally-unclear I have ever come across.

Cider is the beverage that really makes us feel like fall is here, and our friend Kirby Dean from  Blake’s Hard Cider reminds us why! Kirby shares all the news from the Michigan orchards and the cidery, and then he’s got three delectable treats for us: Classic Apple Lite Cider, Mixed Berry Lite Cider,  and Mojito Lime Lite Cider! MegaMergerMania news returns via The Charleston Post & Courier (thanks Michael and Steve!) reporting that a new-to-South Carolina craft brewer (among others!) was just bought by the world’s biggest beer company! Next The Motley Fool shows that apart from that big acquisition, AB InBev is now looking to corner the hard seltzer market. Then it’s the Santa Rosa Press Democrat (thanks Mike!) profiling Bear Republic as it looks toward a bullish 2020, and Forbes demonstrates how small, independent distributors are changing the face of craft beer. We close out the week with Paste (thanks Alex!) sharing their ranking of the 50 best American breweries of the 2010s! We are sad that so few people could answer last week’s #caskquiz which asked “what’s your workout reward brew? And what’s the workout?” This week we are wanting to know “what are your top 5 best breweries of the past decade?” We so love hearing from you!

This week on twitter, there has been a firestorm in the mentions of columnist Grant Cohn, of the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. For someone who has been covering the #49ers since 2011, we would think his current views are more positive than they are. During the week, he has gone on long tirades about how overrated current 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan is, and has been pushing back against anyone who says otherwise. Today, Mike and Tony try to find out why.

The 49ers were among 2018’s most disappointing teams, yet they still boast plenty of fantasy football intrigue in 2019. To break down San Francisco’s fantasy products, we welcome on Grant Cohn (@GrantCohn), 49ers Insider for the Santa Rosa Press Democrat, for the third time. Per usual, his takes are bold and scorching, and could again benefit fantasy owners huge. These include: Coming off a torn-ACL, What will Jimmy Garoppolo bring to the table? Is he truly franchise material, and what can fantasy owners expect if he strings together 16 games? With new weaponry in Deebo Samuel and Jalen Hurd, how will targets shake out in San Francisco? Is Dante Pettis still as sexy of a sleeper, or could a rookie (or someone deeper) steal his spotlight? Is this backfield the true three-headed nightmare it appears to be? Which of Tevin Coleman, Jerick McKinnon, and Matt Breida make the best fantasy selection? Could George Kittle be even better in 2019? What major red flag should fantasy owners be sure to remember? Who is Rich Scangarello, and what will he be bringing to the Broncos as an OC? Will the 49ers rebound after their hideous season, and what can we expect for a record? Cohn again brings the heat, and this 49ers Preview is must-listen material for fans of the team or fantasy.

Word By Word Listeners are due for a special treat treat today, for Gil Mansergh’s  guest is the celebrated local legend Gaye LeBaron in a conversation about her new book entitled:  The Wonder Seekers of Fountaingrove which she co-wrote with Bart Casey. This amazing—-but-true—tale of  Sonoma County’s premier mystical sexual cult, Fountaingrove, is the century-long saga of three men: New England prophet Thomas Lake Harris, British pilgrim Laurence Oliphant, and Japanese Samurai Kanaya Nagasawa. By the time LeBaron “semi-retired” in 2001, she had written more than 8,000 columns for the Santa Rosa Press Democrat and was considered “the most popular feature in the paper.” Her interview notes and research material are kept as the Gaye LeBaron Special Collection at the Sonoma State University Library. In addition to her new book, LeBaron co-authored two other books on local history: Santa Rosa: A Nineteenth Century Town, and Santa Rosa: A Twentieth Century Town.  She also taught Sonoma County history at Santa Rosa Junior College and the Lifelong Learning Center at Sonoma State University, and appeared in two videos discussing Sonoma County history that aired on C-Span in 2015. LeBaron continues to share stories with Press Democrat readers in a column that appear two Sundays each month.

“They’re living too fast.” —Wes ‘Deacon’ Smoot About: It used to be that you could grow apples, herd sheep, or fell timber and make a decent living in the Anderson Valley. But not even the few stop signs in this remote valley could slow down the incoming cash crop of grapes. The area’s long legacy of logging now takes a backseat to its newer reputation of producing some of the world’s best pinot noir. But how did a tucked-away valley 40 minutes from the Pacific Coast and the main highway all of a sudden become a major wine destination? And what toll did this have on a fractured community just reeling from the Redwood Summer days? And what does it mean for the future of the town's famous frontier language called Boontling?

The San Francisco 49ers have seen their share of feuds over the past couple years, but one of them has been cleared up! Jim Harbaugh’s coming back? No. Colin Kaepernick and the front office are besties again? Not yet. But SoCaliSteph (http://www.twitter.com/SoCaliSteph) and The Santa Rosa Press Democrat’s Grant Cohn (http://www.twitter.com/grantcohn) have made up on twitter and beyond, which was a good thing for this week’s show. On this episode of Talking Touchdowns, Steph and I talk with Cohn about Colin Kaepernick’s future, the NFL Draft, the 49ers’ rebuilding plan, and whether or not it really matters if Kap gets along with everyone in the locker room.
