Katy Grimes is the editor-in-chief of the California Globe and she always has a lot to write about. Focused on politics, Katy and Evan break down the woes of California while talking through prop 47 (addressing retail theft), homelessness, abortion, and more. Plus, what does the future hold for Governor Gavin Newsom? And what about Adam Schiff vs Steve Garvey this November? They even discuss the campaign of Robert F Kennedy, Jr. Katy also gets into the mechanics of journalism and how she acquires (and loses) sources. Finally, Katy and Evan watch along to Evan’s new song, “Radical Left Republican Dad.” There’s the awkward.
