Welcome to another episode of the Doomloop Dispatch, the news show covering the worst parts of the San Francisco Bay Area. On this episode, Kevin and Scot discuss recent headlines, such as the failures of Prop 36, the expansion of the surveillance state in San Francisco, and the spread of fascism all over the Nation. Are we stuck in a duopoly? Is anyone fighting on the left? We discuss it all.
