On his mom's side, Woody LaBounty's San Francisco roots go back to 1850. In Part 1, get to know Woody, who, today, is the president and CEO of SF Heritage. But he's so, so much more than that. He begins by tracing his lineage back to the early days of the Gold Rush. His maternal great-great-great-grandfather arrived here mid-Nineteenth Century. Woody even knows what ship he was on and the exact day that it arrived in the recently christened city of San Francisco. On Woody's dad's side, the roots are about 100 years younger than that. His father grew up in Fort Worth, Texas (like I did). His dad's mom was single and fell on hard times in Texas. She came to San Francisco, where she had a step-brother. Woody's parents met at the Donut Bowl at 10th Avenue and Geary Boulevard (where Boudin Bakery is today). Donut Bowl was a combination donut shop/hot dog joint. At the time the two met, his dad worked as a cook there and his mom was in high school. His mom and her friends went to nearby Washington High and would hang out at the donut shop after school. The next year or so, his parents had their first kid—Woody. They came from different sides of the track, as it were. Woody's mom's family wasn't crazy about her dating his working-class dad, who didn't finish high school. But once his mom became pregnant with Woody, everything changed. The couple had two more sons after Woody. One of his brothers played for the 49ers in the Nineties and lives in Oregon today. His other brother works with underserved high school kids in New Jersey, helping them get into college. Woody shares some impressions of his first 10 years or so of life by describing The City in the mid-Seventies. Yes, kids played in the streets and rode Muni to Candlestick Park and The Tenderloin to go bowling. It was also the era of Patty Hearst and the SLA, Jonestown, and the Moscone/Milk murders. But for 10-year-old Woody, it was home. It felt safe, like a village. Because I'm a dork, I ask Woody to share his memories of when Star Wars came out. Obliging me, he goes on a sidebar about how the cinematic phenomenon came into his world in San Francisco. He did, in fact, see Star Wars in its first run at the Coronet. He attended Sacred Heart on Cathedral Hill when it was an all-boys high school. He grew up Catholic, although you didn't have to be to go to one of SF's three Catholic boys' high schools. Woody describes, in broad terms, the types of families that sent their boys to the three schools. Sacred Heart was generally for kids of working-class folks. After school, if they didn't take Muni back home to the Richmond District, Woody and his friends might head over to Fisherman's Wharf to play early era video games. Or, most likely, they'd head over to any number of high schools to talk to girls. Because parental supervision was lacking, let's say, Woody and his buddies also frequently went to several 18+ and 21+ spots. The I-Beam in the Haight, The Triangle in the Marina, The Pierce Street Annex, Enrico's in North Beach, Mabuhay Gardens. There, he saw bands like The Tubes and The Dead Kennedy's, although punk wasn't really his thing. Woody was more into jazz, RnB, and late-disco. We chat a little about café culture in San Francisco, something that didn't really exist until the Eighties. To this day, Woody still spends his Friday mornings at Simple Pleasures Cafe. And we end Part 1 with Woody's brief time at UC Berkeley (one year) and the real reason he even bothered to try college. Check back next week for Part 2 with Woody LaBounty. And this Thursday, look for a bonus episode all about We Players and their upcoming production of Macbeth at Fort Point. We recorded this episode in Mountain Lake Park in March 2025.

Drew Phillips opened the doors of Four Phantoms in Greenfield, Massachusetts in 2021. He began his fermentation career in the Pacific Northwest, and while waiting to open his own brewery, he took on the role as cider maker at Artifact Cider Project. Drew Phillips Known for his creative ciders and beers, Drew blends tradition with innovation, sourcing local fruit and experimenting with wild fermentation. Check out his talk on the making of Old Gods . In this episode, Drew shares how Four Phantoms' unique approach reflects the terroir of Western Massachusetts. Early Challenges of a Brewery/Cidery: Gaining a License Drew initially couldn't produce cider legally due to licensing restrictions in Massachusetts. After securing a farmer winery license, he started making cider alongside beer and mead. All ciders are crafted from Pine Hill fruit in Colrain, Massachusetts. Signature Ciders and Fermentation Techniques Late Harvest – 6.5% Apples (Spy, Golden Russet and Baldwin) Tamlane – 6% 100% Macintosh apples, aged on black birch wood, giving it a herbal, German liqueur note. Redfield – 7.7% 100% Redfield apples – A red-fleshed apple cider with natural acidity and structure. Chapin's Waltz – 8.5% A blend of Golden Russet, Baldwin, and Northern Spy, co-fermented with low intervention. King of the Wharf – 7.5% A Mac-based cider aged on rum-soaked oak chips, giving it a smooth, warming finish. Old Gods – 8% Inspired by Finnish farmhouse brewing, fermented on black birch. Listen to Episode 345 on how Old Gods a Co-Fermentation of Wort and Apple Juice was made! Ciders Tasted during this chat Low Intervention and Sense of Place Drew emphasizes low-intervention cider making — no back-sweetening, minimal sulfites, and natural wild cultures. The ciders reflect the unique qualities of Western Massachusetts apples and local wood aging. Poly tanks and oak aging contribute to the distinctive flavors and textures. Community and the Future of Four Phantoms Four Phantoms Tasting Area by the production room Drew values the connection between local agriculture and cider. He sees cider's future as more craft-focused than beer, with room for independent voices. “Cider resists commercialization,” says Drew. “It's about sense of place.” Contact Info for Four Phantoms Website: https://fourphantoms.net Mentions in this Cider Chat Totally Cider Tours Cider Route Itinerary send a request to Cider Chat Cider Rap Song – by Robert Sherman of EsoTerra Ciderworks in Durango, Colorado

Imagine a sound canvas where tradition, life and nature are intertwined in a vibrant auditory tapestry. The Fisherman's Wharf in Santa Cruz, Galapagos, is an everyday symphony. The air is filled with the metallic echo of knives sliding on whetstones, a prelude to the dance that follows. The precise sound of the knife cutting the fish meat is mixed with the soft splash of the water that cleans the pieces, creating a rhythmic percussion. The voices, warm and resonant, weave conversations that talk about work, family, and island life. They are spontaneous songs, laughter that escapes, the constant murmur of the community. And in this concert, nature also has its part: the guttural call of the sea lions, eager for their share of the loot, is contrasted with the strident squawking of the pelicans, fighting for a bite. It is a unique polyphony, where work, culture and wildlife converge in an imperfect but deeply human harmony.  This soundscape is a time capsule, an invaluable record of daily life in the Galapagos Islands. It invites reflection on the relationship between humans and nature, the importance of traditions and the richness of local culture.

I. Ocean furrows II. The liquid skin of story  III. Island protecting waves "What are the living sonic expressions inherited from our ancestors? This question came to me when I read the definition of ‘intangible cultural heritage' on the UNESCO website. The field recording I chose from the Fisherman's Wharf in Santa Cruz in the Galapagos Islands, is, in the words of Josué Jaramillo, ‘a unique polyphony, where work, culture and wildlife converge in an imperfect but very human harmony'. Listening to the recording, I was mesmerised by the sound of the ‘knives sliding on whetstones', as well as the daily conversations and the flowing of sounds into each other. Watching videos of the wharf online, I was transfixed by the seabirds, iguanas and sea lions that waited patiently for -or simply took- their fair share of the fish meat.  "Researching Ecuadorian folk music, I came across ‘Taita Quishpe', a song about the love felt by an indigenous agriculturalist towards their ‘chakrita', the small plot of land which provides for them and soothes them like the sound of the ‘rondador', the national instrument of Ecuador. I thought of the ocean around the Galapagos Islands as one giant chakrita, and the very particular relationship islanders have with the sea, its deep and shifting waters.  "This provoked me to explore my own heritage as a British-Greek person. The first thing that came to my mind was the Odyssey, the epic rhapsody of the eponymous hero's perilous journey of return. Thinking about the waters of heritage and story, I was reminded of the evasive figure of Proteus, the shapeshifting old man of the sea, transforming himself into ‘a lion, a serpent, a leopard, a boar, rushing water, a mighty tree'. I felt that across the ages this is also what stories do.  "The next thing that came to mind was the Met Office's shipping forecast, that spell-like, reliable, life-saving transmission. This spell led to thinking about other spells, about the fate of ancient traditions that were lost, only to be remade in modern form, such as the animistic traditions of Druidry and its flowing spirit of inspiration, or Awen.  "The soundscape hopefully evokes something of this imaginative journey, taking the original field recording itself as a point of departure. My idea has been to dissolve boundaries, to express the movement of waves and to allow for the invisible radiophonic liquidity that we are all part of to emerge; it seems to me that both through tangible and intangible waters, all our different islands might be connected, and perhaps that sonic currents of our heritage are always travelling to shores much further than we think."

We're heading to the beachside town of Ohope now, to catch up with a Kiwi-Fijian chef who's recently put down roots there. Paul Patterson has had a hand in opening dozens of restaurants overseas and had a colourful career before that as an auto engineer, a drain layer, and a security guard to name a few. But it was the food business back in Aotearoa that he wanted to land in, and after some trial and error, he's opened a harbourside restaurant. Six months in, bookings at The Fisherman's Wharf are steady and Paul has become known for fishing out of the window. Jesse catches up with Paul to see how it's going and how his life is post-Bachelorette

There's been heated discussion online this week about the municipal wharf in Annapolis Royal, after the town closed it to commercial fishing vessels. Pauline Dakin talks to a local councilor who's been trying to diffuse the situation.

David Waldman counts down the days until our national apocalypse, yet with so many tied down the backstretch, this race is a tough call! For supposed “auditors”, nothing about DOGE adds up. Monday, Elon gave federal workers until three to… Uhm, today Elon gave federal workers until three to… Tomorrow, Elon will give federal workers until three to… Trump could barely get a semi-fired up today, as his EO has ED. Musk was able to cut 20 DOGE staff today who couldn't look themselves in the mirror anymore. Meanwhile, “fired” staffers keep finding themselves “unfired”. Those who did send in responses will have the answers fed into AI and anyone determined to be funnier than Musk will be dismissed immediately… (Those people would also be expected to be more liberal, naturally.) DOGE's dealings are illegal and even unconstitutional, but now the challenge is determining who is DOGE's head douche. Trump is so opposed to leaving a paper trail that he skips on chances to cover his own ass. DOGE was designed to attack liberals, but it terrifies the ever-loving crap out of Democrats, which was “Job One” for Donald K. Trump. Donald can now leave the Lib cleanup operation to Don Bongino and Don Jr.'s “hunting buddy” who will instruct the FDA to move infant formula by the kilo from this point on. With the US out of the way it is now time to Make Axis Great Again for our new conquest over our old allies. With such colossal corruption, who's to notice the little stuff, like a Florida congressman assaulting women at night along the Wharf? At least that's what the U.S. Attorney's Office thought when they tossed his warrant into the trash.

Donald Trump's federal downsizing could leave a lot of high profile federal buildings hitting the market. One cluster of them sits just south of the Mall on Independence Avenue and stretches down towards the Wharf. To DC planners, it could be a whole new neighborhood in a choice location.

One set of Barbara Gratta's grandparents came to the US from Calabria, the toe of the boot of Italy. The other grandparents came from across the Italian peninsula—Bari. In this episode, meet Barbara. Today, she owns, operates, and makes wine at Gratta Wines in the Bayview. But her journey began in White Plains, NY. All four grandparents came to Brooklyn in the 1920s. They all eventually moved north to raise families away from the bustle of New York City. Barbara's grandparents were a big part of her early life, the extended families getting together often for "big Italian Sunday dinners" (yum!). These involved aunts, uncles, and cousins as well as the older generation. Barbara and her immediate family lived upstairs from her aunt, uncle, and cousins. Because of this set-up, she says it was more like one big family. And every week culminated on Sundays, with as many as 30 people coming in and out of these get-togethers. The sauce was on the stove starting early in the morning. And if more people came, it simply meant more pasta. If, like me, you're thinking of the "Fishes" episode of The Bear, you're not far off. Saturdays were spent going "up the street," which meant shopping at places like Sears or Macy's. Maybe they'd stop at White Plains Diner for lunch. But they always ended up back at her grandmother's house for cake and coffee. Her mom's youngest brother went to school with Barbara's dad's youngest sister. They came from different towns, but all ran in the same circles. And thanks to this, as well as a tight-knit Italian-American community in the area, her parents met. They got married in 1958 and had their first kid, a son, in 1959. Then Barbara was born in 1960. ​The family is Catholic, but that manifested more in traditions than any religious sense. They went to church on big holidays, and Barbara shares a story about her grandmother giving her money for the Easter Sunday collection. But she and her cousins pocketed the money and spent the service on the church roof. After she was confirmed, around eighth grade, her parents gave her the choice whether to keep going or not. Barbara chose to hang up her career with Catholicism at that point. By the time Barbara was in high school, her immediate family moved to Florida, in the Sarasota area. She says it was a hard time for her, being torn from all the people and places she knew. There wasn't a lot of Italian culture in her new home. Her mom searched for ingredients to make the food she was accustomed to. She spotted a sausage truck one day and followed it. Only through this was she able to maintain some semblance of her cultural past. Barbara stuck around after high school down in Florida. She got a degree in physical therapy and worked for about 10 years on the west coast of the state. Still, neither she nor her two brothers (one older, one younger) loved it there. Barbara left Florida around 1989 or 1990 for California. Her first visit, before she moved to San Francisco, was a vacation with a coworker in the mid-Eighties. They stayed in a hotel on Van Ness near The Bay. They did what tourists do—Fisherman's Wharf, drive over the Golden Gate Bridge, that sort of thing—and didn't travel to any SF neighborhoods. The visit involved a quick drive down to Monterey to see a former coworker of theirs. The entire trip left her wanting to visit again someday. When the time came to move here, her job set her up with a place to live for a few months. Barbara kept renewing these contracts every three months. She started in the southwest corner of The City, within walking distance of Joe's of Westlake in Daly City. We end Part 1 with stories of Barbara's early friends in SF showing her around The City. Check back next week for Part 2 and the conclusion of my episode with Barbara Gratta. We recorded this podcast at Gratta Wines in the Bayview in December 2024. Photography by Dan Hernandez

As city leaders and residents deal with the aftermath of the damaged Santa Cruz Wharf, which collapsed after a winter storm earlier this week, there is mounting pressure to address the challenges pertaining to the area. But this isn't anything new -- after a damaging tsunami slammed into the California coast in 2011, city leaders debated on how to better protect the wharf, which ultimately led to a lawsuit from residents. For a closer look, KCBS Radio news anchor Bret Burkhart spoke with Gillian Greensite, a member of Don't Morph the Wharf.

Santa Cruz police and fire departments pulled two people out of the Pacific Ocean Monday afternoon when part of the Santa Cruz Wharf collapsed into the ocean and was seen floating away; Five skiers were transported to the hospital Monday after an “incident” on a chair lift at Heavenly ski resort in Lake Tahoe, according to Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District Assistant Chief Bryce Cranch.

La tuerie d'une violence inouïe orchestrée par le chef de gang haïtien Micanor Altès dans la périphérie de Port-au-Prince a coûté la vie à près de 200 personnes. Le secteur de Wharf Jeremie à Cité Soleil, une zone défavorisée souvent décrite comme le plus grand bidonville d'Haïti, vient de connaître l'une des plus atroces tueries recensées dans le pays ces dernières années. Volker Türk, le Haut-Commissaire des Nations unies chargé des droits de l'homme, estime ( à plus de 184 le nombre de personnes à y avoir été exécutées en l'espace de quelques jours. Interrogées par RFI, les équipes de l'ONU présentes en Haïti ne souhaitent pas détailler la manière dont elles ont compilé ces chiffres pour ne pas mettre leurs sources en danger. Mais dès hier, lundi 9 décembre 2024, le secrétaire général de l'ONU via son porte-parole Stéphane Dujarric a dénoncé un évènement « horrible », condamné la violence des gangs et présenté ses condoléances aux familles des victimes.Au sein de Cité Soleil, le quartier portuaire de Wharf Jeremie est une zone de non-droit, où la police ne se risque plus depuis qu'il est passé sous la coupe du chef de gang Micanor Altès, il y a quatre ans. Lui et ses hommes s'étaient déjà livrés à des exactions de ce type par le passé, mais l'ampleur de ce massacre, qui a ciblé avant tout des Haïtiens de plus 60 ans, n'a jamais eu d'équivalent.Rafles, exécutions sommaires, cadavres incendiésLa version la plus crédible, relayée par plusieurs organisations haïtiennes de défense de droits de l'homme et confirmée par les sources communautaires que nous avons pu joindre, avance l'hypothèse d'une vengeance. Après que son très jeune enfant est tombé malade et dans l'incapacité de le soigner, Micanor Altès se serait convaincu que les personnes âgées de Cité Soleil lui avaient jeté un sort et qu'il était de son devoir de mettre fin à leur jour. Rafles, exécutions sommaires, cadavres incendiés, « tous les cheveux blancs sont décimés », rapporte à RFI un habitué de Cité Soleil.Le fils d'un homme de 76 ans relate au quotidien Le Nouvelliste comment trois hommes armés sont venus chercher son père à son domicile vers dix heures du soir, l'ont poignardé et ont brûlé sa dépouille. Ce témoin affirme connaître au moins une trentaine d'autres habitants de Wharf Jeremie ayant subi le même sort. Et personne ne peut garantir, à ce stade, que cet accès de folie criminelle soit terminé. L'accord de libre-échange entre l'Union européenne et les pays du Mercosur, décrié en Occident et en Amérique latineFinalisé la semaine dernière, lors d'une visite à Montevideo de la présidente de la Commission européenne, mais pas encore ratifié par les pays européens, ce texte continue de faire polémique. Analyse d'Olivier Antoine, expert en Géopolitique de l'agriculture et de l'alimentation, à réécouter dans son intégralité dans l'édition du jour. Pénurie d'huile en BolivieEn Bolivie, la crise économique continue d'affecter le quotidien de la population. Depuis au moins une semaine, les principales villes du pays font face à une pénurie d'huile. En conséquence, les prix ont explosé et le gouvernement a annoncé suspendre les exportations d'huile pendant 3 mois, pour que la situation revienne à la normale.

The last remaining Denny's in San Francisco has shuttered after nearly 25 years. The 24-hour diner chain's 816 Mission St. location closed Aug. 1, franchise owner Chris Haque told SFGATE. As of Aug. 12, the Denny's sign has been painted over. “We're the only store left, and we operated until the last day that we could,” Haque said. “The cost of doing business is tremendous. There's vandalism, and people come and eat and walk away, and there's no one to stop them.” Haque claimed that dining and dashing was a big issue at the Denny's near Union Square, which he said cut into the restaurant's profit margins. He also pointed to the lack of conventions in San Francisco over the past few years, which the restaurant typically depended on for business. Haque used to be the franchise owner of a Denny's location in San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf as well, which closed in 2019, and still runs a Denny's in Tacoma, Washington.

Michael "Spike" Krouse's arrival on this planet was something of a miracle for his parents.   In this episode, get to know the founder of Madrone Art Bar (currently one of my favorite places in San Francisco). Spike's dad, a fighter pilot who flew missions in World War II, was much older than his mom. He flew for the Navy when the U.S. went to war with Korea as well. He ended up stationed in Alameda. When he retired from the Navy, in 1967, he took a job in Las Vegas, where the pay was good and the housing was affordable.   His dad was director of operations for a nuclear test site in Nevada. Over the years, he dealt with his share of PTSD, and to cope, started gambling.   Spike's mom was born in Paris during the German occupation of that city. Her father was "on a train," meaning he was headed to a concentration camp. He ended up being liberated from Dachau years later, but the experience took a toll on him—mentally, physically, and spiritually. He passed away and his family was devastated.   Spike's mom, then an infant, was sent to live in the basements of different churches. Her earliest memory is of Allied troops liberating Paris in 1944. US troops handed out chocolate bars to French kids along the Champs-Elysees.   When she was 13, she followed her older brother to Israel. After that, she migrated to Italy, where she was recruited to do TV commercials. With that success, Spike's mom moved back to Paris, where she danced for a living. She got into some movies, also. With that, travel picked up—New York, LA, and eventually, Las Vegas.   In Vegas, she ended up doing a one-woman burlesque dancing show. Maybe you can see where this story is headed, but Spike's dad was in the audience at one of these shows. Soon after this, the two headed up to San Francisco and got married. Spike was born about a year later.   By his dad, Spike has a half-brother and a half-sister, who was close to his mom in age (his sister has since passed away). But it was his mom's first marriage and Spike was her first, and only, kid.   Spike says that the Vegas where he grew up was more like a small town where everyone knew each other. It was nothing like it is today, in other words. Among other activities, Spike and his friends would lock up their bikes and go pool hopping at the various casino resorts back in the 1980s.   His family traveled around a bit when Spike was a kid. They visited his aunt and uncle (his mom's siblings) in Paris several times. Because his mom was born in France during German occupation, she hadn't been given citizenship at birth. But in the early 1990s, thanks to a reparations trial, that happened. And it extended down to her offspring and their offspring. Today, Spike's kids enjoy French citizenship, as does he.   The family also visited San Francisco, when Spike was around nine or 10. He remembers riding cable cars and going to Fisherman's Wharf. They'd travel places in their pop-top van that was equipped with an RV hookup. They also went to San Diego, where his dad received cancer treatments around the time Spike was 13.   In his high school years, he and his friends threw lots of parties, and Spike was the one who made flyers for these shindigs. There'd be illicit boxing matching between rival schools. There'd be kegs, there'd be gambling.   He was into New Wave and metal, but his taste was really all over the board. Thanks to his parents, there was jazz at home, Serge Gainsbourg, Edith Piaf. And he'd go to all-ages clubs in Vegas. Spike never really played instruments, though. His talents around music were mostly visually artistic.   He played sports—football, baseball, golf. As a kid, he and his friends stole golf balls from a nearby course. His punishment was to hit balls at a driving range for two months. Thanks to this, he got pretty good at the sport.   But, especially by the time he went off to college, sports took a backseat to throwing parties. College meant Marquette University in Milwaukee. Spike talks about the art scene in Milwaukee and how much he liked it. His school didn't offer any art degrees, otherwise he would have majored in that. But someone at Milwaukee's art museum had amassed quite a collection of German Expressionist art, and Spike liked to check that out. He says he chose the school partly because it was so far from Las Vegas.   He shares the story of a ballroom in Milwaukee that he rolled into looking for work. It was his first foray into the business side of parties. He was only 18, but that was OK back then. He got a job barbacking, and three months in, got promoted to bartender when someone called in sick. There was a Vegas connection to the place—it was part of a money-laundering ring that involved cash from casinos in Nevada. So, in a sense, Spike was right back where he started. Sort of.   The place had big-name acts at its upstairs, 2,500-seat venue. Acts like Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the up-and-coming Smashing Pumpkins. Spike worked those events, and ended up making enough money from this job to pay for everything other than his tuition. He'd fully caught the nightlife bug.   After he graduated, Spike went back to Vegas and got a job with Mirage Resorts in their executive casino training program. Within six months of this, though, he realized it wasn't for him. He was 21. He had a college degree. He was trying to figure out what his path would be. He wanted to travel. He wanted to foster his creative side, but also wanted to find a way to make money doing that.   So he hopped in his car and drove up the West Coast, starting in San Diego, then LA, San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle, shopping for a city to put down roots.   Check back next week for Part 2, and the last episode of Season 6 of this podcast.   We recorded this podcast at Madrone Art Bar on Divisadero in May 2024.

(Due to the live recording elements there unfortunately are some audio issues during the episode.) On today's episode I am coming to you LIVE from San Diego Comic-Con with Disney animator and storyboard artist, Peter Paul Bautista! On today's episode I am coming to you LIVE from San Diego Comic-Con with Disney Animator and storyboard artist, Peter Paul Bautista!  I was so excited to have Peter Paul join us for this year's SDCC show. When I was first introduced to Peter Paul from Mike and JB at From North to Wharf we hit it off immediately chatting via social media and I knew he would be a lot of fun to talk to on the show about the incredible animation career he's built working on some incredible movies and tv shows.  I talked with Peter Paul about how he got his start in animation, losing a graphic design job at an engineering & oil company and stumbling into animation from there. Finding his first animation job as an inbetween artist on Space Jam, working on Clerks: The Animated Series and having no idea who Kevin Smith was, working on Mission Hill, finding his next job on The Tigger Movie, staring to work on movies and shows with Bento Box, such as the Bob's Burgers Movie and Krapopolis, and so much more! A huge Thank You to Peter Paul Bautista for taking the time to join us in San Diego for the show! It was so much fun getting to know Peter Paul during this episode. Also a Thank You to his friend Rachel who snapped some photos for us during the show. A big thank you to Mike and JB of From North to Wharf for helping connect me with Peter Paul.

If you are listening to this TODAY, July 24th, we are on the ground at San Diego Comic-Con, and that is exactly what why I wanted to have my friends on the show.

The Trivia will take place July 25th @ 8:00PM in the lobby of the Marriot Marquis, and the fan Meat Up will take place Friday July 26th from 1:45-2:45PM in Hilton Bay Front on the second floor. The group photo will be taken at 2:00PM.  We talked about how Stephanie created Tinapocalypse and where the name came from, how the fan meat ups were started, JB co-creating the Bob's Burgers Trivia game and setting up SDCC trivia, how Tinapocalypse and North to Wharf started working together, our bearded overlord Toddland, and so much more.  A huge Thank You to Stephanie aka Tinapocalypse and Mike and JB from North to Wharf for taking the time to join me on the show.

Though one of its most famous attractions is Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco and the Bay Area's thriving fishing industry is not what it once was. A shortened season for Dungeness crab, a canceled salmon season (the second cancellation in a row), and climate change are taking a toll on fisheries. We talk to people who make their living catching and selling fish and hear how they are surviving and adapting to this new reality. Guests: Kirk Lombard, fisherman and sea forager - Lombard operates the Sea Forager CSF which brings local seafood to consumers directly. He is also the author of "The Sea Forager's Guide to the Northern California Coast." Melissa Mahoney, executive director, Monterey Bay Fisheries Trust - a nonprofit focused on supporting and strengthening fisheries in Monterey, Moss Landing and Santa Cruz Sarah Bates, captain, Fishing Vessel Bounty Eleza Jaeger, owner and operator of the vessel "The Gatherer II," which fishes for halibut and operates charters
