In this episode of the California Underground Podcast, hosts Phil and Camille discuss various topics related to California politics, including Rosie O'Donnell's recent comments on election denialism, the billion-dollar deficit facing Los Angeles, and Karen Bass's request for a bailout from Sacramento. They also delve into Gavin Newsom's satellite launch aimed at detecting methane emissions and the implications of a recent poll showing a significant percentage of California voters considering a Republican governor in the next election.

Feel like you can’t talk about insane taxes, an overbearing government, and radical social experiments without getting a side eye?
