  • Traffic is back near pre-pandemic levels
    Tuesday, October 5th.
    No, it isn't your imagination.  Bay Area traffic, especially on the freeways, is virtually back at pre-pandemic levels - before work-from-home was common for almost all of us.  But there are exceptions!

  • It's Fleet Week 2021! And we should all celebrate.

    Monday October 4th, 2021.

    It's Fleet Week in San Francisco and the Bay Area.  And because we've done so well in curtailing the COVID pandemic by getting vaccinated, wearing masks in public settings, and keeping COVID stats low across the Bay Area, we get to have nice things.

    San Francisco's will be the only live and in-person Fleet Week of it's kind nationwide.  This alone, is reason to celebrate!

  • Critical Response: A day with SFFD in The Tenderloin

    Friday, September 24th.

    Host Matt Pitman and KCBS reporter Kathy Novak recently spent a day with the San Francisco Fire Department's Critical Response Team.  

    In part of SF, its the CRT - not the cops - who may arrive first to a 9-1-1 call where someone may be experiencing a mental health or drug abuse crisis.  Can this care and compassion based program help further de-stigmatize issues surrounding mental health?

    Hosted by Matt Pitman.  With KCBS reporter Kathy Novak.
