    In this episode of the Forever Fresno Podcast, JT, Sergeant Maynard Dixon and Host Jason Matthews focus on a article entitled 10 Things To Know and Love About Fresno.
    The following are discussion items in the show:
    1. If you are thinking of moving to Fresno and like what you see, odds are greater you will land in Clovis next door.
    2. Fresno politics are complicated by water (more specifically by the lack of sufficient supplies to completely irrigate the fertile soil surrounding the city.)
    3. Keeping with politics: Although Fresno County is one of the most conservative places in California, it has more registered Democrats than Republicans.
    4. Are tacos your favorite food?
    5. As everyone who parachutes in and writes about Fresno observes, it’s just a few hours away from the beach, the mountains, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
    6. Interested in wine-making as a career?
    7. From the end of February to the middle of March, the Blossom Trail erupts in colors that will simultaneously excite and soothe you.
    8. Sooner or later, someone will bring up crime and paint Fresno as the homicide capital of America.
    9. Dream about your children playing Major League Baseball or winning an Olympic gold medal in softball?
    10. Fresno is a city of opportunity.

    In this episode of the Forever Fresno Podcast, Jason Matthews, Rossi Ricco and Sergeant Maynard Dixon give commentary on a controversial article the Fresno Bee published recent. The editorial article has received negative publicity on social media channels.
    Jason Matthews speaks with Rossi Ricco concerning the Fresno Bee article via telephone from downtown Fresno. Ricco arrived early at Fresno Bee Headquarters to watch alleged employees as they enter and exit the building.
    Jason Matthews attempts to stay objective in the situation. Sergeant Dixon tries to get Jason Matthews to commit to a position on the subject. The theory is employees at the Fresno Bee are liberal, weirdo, hippy, San Francisco types.
    Ricco seemingly attempts to confirm the exact opposite of what the writer of the article is alleging; employees of the Fresno Bee newspaper are normal, everyday people. The Fresno Bee article claims the staff "consists of real people who live, work, purchase, eat, socialize, pray, recreate and ultimately die right here in the Valley".

Jose does not feel comfortable talking in English about the Fresno alien but he does understand English. Roy Rubenstein told Sergeant Dixon he is fluent in Spanish and can translate for Jose but Roy does not want to directly come on the Forever Fresno podcast. Therefore, the only option is to have Jose answer Jason Matthews questions and have Sergeant Dixon ask Roy Rubenstein for the translation off mic.
    Jose talks about the Fresno Nightcrawler Native Americcan history and how he was visited by a local tribe concerning the matter after his sighting of the Fresno creature. Jose gives very specific information on the Fresno Nightcrawler stick figure alien. He provides exact dates and times as well as the camera model used for this caught on tape video.
    According to Jose, the Nightcrawler legend is explained by the visit he had from the the man who stated he was from a local Native American tribe. He also explains how his dogs were barking at the Nightcrawler paranormal creature. He also explains how the Fresno Bulldog gang was involved in the situation. The visit by the alleged tribesman produces further information for Jose about the stick figure alien and it's connection to Yosemite.
    Host Jason Matthews asks about the sequence of events that happened that night at the house and gets never before heard information. He gets very detailed information about everything caught on tape.
