In Season 2 Episode 8 of Teed Up, the hosts Naoki Gima and Matthew Gomez review some of the stats from the most recent matchups in Beach sports as well as some of the recent headlines in the world of professional sports.

Following some of the recent performances in conference play from women's volleyball and soccer, the hosts discuss some of the big storylines from those games and what those results could mean for the teams moving forward.

Before continuing the trend of discussing sports topics having to do with the game itself, the hosts cover some of the more pressing topics that go beyond the game. This time the topic is the National Hockey League's decision to ban the use of Pride Tape during warmups and games.

Staying on the theme of hockey, the hosts are joined by two guests familiar with the sport who help run down the main headlines that have developed over the first two weeks of the season.

In season 11, episode 10 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal discusses a tentative agreement for California State University employees, President Biden’s visit to Israel and more.

The California State University Employees Union reached a tentative agreement on Oct. 11 with the CSU Chancellor’s Office to implement a “salary step” program for employees. Union members still have to vote to approve the agreement, but, if approved, it would bring a 5% general salary increase effective July 1, 2023 with full retroactive pay. Then, the agreement would bring another 5% raise on July 1, 2024 and an official transition to salary steps on Oct. 1, 2025.

Since 1973, the Bob Murphy Access Center, or BMAC, has offered accommodations and support to students with disabilities. On Oct. 5, BMAC celebrated 30 years of service to Long Beach State with a sold-out ceremony. Five alumni, who were once students assisted by BMAC, were inducted into the center’s Hall of Fame for excelling in creating inclusive environments in their lives outside of Long Beach State. Students needing accommodations can contact the Bob Murphy Access Center for resources and more information. Their office is located in room 110 of the Shakarian Student Success Center and their email address is [email protected].

The 39th annual Long Beach marathon was last Sunday, Oct. 15, which brought in roughly 18,000 people to run the 26.2-mile marathon around the city. The event started at Shoreline Drive and began at 6 a.m. Ryley Fick, a 23-year-old who graduated from Long Beach State last spring, won the women’s race with a time of 2:58:30. Jason Yang won the men’s race with a time of 2:27:04.

The California Commissioner of Labor’s Office issued a fine of $4.8 million, the largest fine given to a hotel in state history, to the Hyatt Regency in Long Beach. The Labor's Office stated that the Hyatt Regency allegedly violated California’s “Right to Recall” law as they did not offer jobs to workers who were laid off as a result of the pandemic.

The U.S. government has reached a settlement with more than 5,000 migrant families who were separated at the southern border between 2017 and 2018 after the Trump administration's "zero-tolerance" policy towards border crossing. According to the settlement, the government will be prohibited from reenacting a “zero-tolerance” policy for at least the next 8 years and it requires the government to continue to identify families who were separated. It also states that families will gain the ability to apply for work permits, and housing and medical services.

A 6-year-old Palestinian-American boy was killed after being stabbed 26 times by his family’s landlord on Oct. 14 in Illinois, according to the Will County Sheriff’s Office. His mother was stabbed at least a dozen times and sustained major injuries. The mother and son were allegedly targeted by their landlord because they are Muslim. Their landlord was charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, two counts of a hate crime and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.

President Biden visited Israel last Wednesday to support the country in war and guarantee America’s allyship. Biden’s return to the Oval Office has been marked with an immediate request of almost $106 billion from Congress. Of the $106 billion, only $14 billion is proposed to support Israel. The remaining $82 billion is for replenishing U.S. weapons in Ukraine and anti-fentanyl trafficking task forces across the U.S.-Mexico border.

In season 11, episode 9 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal discusses last week’s on-campus ‘Protest for Palestine,’ ASI’s decision not to raise a Pride flag for OUTober and more.

The Parking and Transportation Department at Long Beach State extensively upgraded its free campus shuttle tracking system with a new app called Passio GO. Passio GO provides precise GPS shuttle tracking, time estimates for shuttle arrivals and a read on any shuttle’s capacity levels.

Members of the La F.U.E.R.Z.A. Student Association and another organization called CSU Students United Against Apartheid rallied on campus in support of Palestine last Tuesday. This comes after Hamas, a Palestinian militant organization, launched an attack on Israel on Oct. 7. Israel declared war on Hamas the next day.

Anthony Orrico, news assistant with the Daily Forty-Niner, and Maya-Claire Glenn, opinions assistant, joined Beach Weekly for a conversation about ASI’s decision not to raise the Pride flag on campus for OUTober. ASI originally planned to raise the Pride flag on Oct. 2 for the rest of the month but revoked their decision on Sept. 18. The conversation elaborates on ASI representatives’ explanations for why the Pride flag was not raised, how students are reacting and more.

Gov. Gavin Newsom rejected a bill on Sept. 30 that would have given striking workers the right to unemployment checks. He says that he vetoed this bill because the state's unemployment fund is already $18 billion in debt. This bill was proposed because of the recent and current worker strikes in California. The writers' strike in Hollywood ended in September after about four months. Kaiser medical workers went on strike for three days earlier this month, and hotel workers and actors are currently striking, all for higher wages and better conditions.

In season 11, episode 8 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal covers the reopening of the Beach Hut convenience store on campus, “rainbow capitalism” and more.

The Beach Hut convenience store on campus is now reopened after a three-year temporary closure and has implemented Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology. Guests enter the Beach Hut by swiping their card or using their phone’s tap-to-pay, which allows the turnstiles to open. Then, they go inside, pick up what they need and walk out. The Beach Hut is located in between the library and the Academic Services building. It is open Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and is closed on Sundays.

The La F.U.E.R.Z.A. Student Association at Long Beach State set up a demonstration to raise awareness on campus of 43 missing Indigenous students who disappeared on Sept. 26, 2014 after being captured by police who were working in collusion with local drug cartels. Posters with the missing students’ names and photos were arranged on the ground surrounded by flowers and candles in front of the Liberal Arts 5 building. Yearly memorials and protests are held all around the globe on Sept. 26 in honor of the 43 still-missing students.

The Writers Guild of America ended their nearly five-month strike with Hollywood studios on Sept. 27 after reaching a provisional agreement on their collective contract. With the new WGA deal, basic wages will be increased by 5% in the first year, 4% in the following year and 3.5% in the third year. Viewership data will also be more transparent to allow for accountability in compensation and there are new minimum staffing rights to protect writers from overworking.

Pakistani officials and activists reported that on Sept. 25, Pakistan resumed issuing ID cards to transgender citizens after a four-month-long pause that came when a court ruling eradicated a law that the country had put in place to protect transgender rights. Human rights activists have appealed the court ruling, and in Pakistan, a court ruling cannot take effect if there are appeals that have not been decided. Because of this, transgender people in Pakistan can continue to receive IDs.

To end the episode, opinions assistant Maya-Claire joined the show for a conversation on “rainbow capitalism,” which is when a corporation profits off of LGBTQ+ themed products without supporting the community. Maya-Claire spoke about the history of “rainbow capitalism” and how it makes her feel as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.
