This week, we preview the State of the City address. Slated for next Wednesday, San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria will report to the entire city what his administration did last year and what's ahead.

In this episode, we look back at old State of the City addresses and make predictions for the next. An undeniable issue for discussion is homelessness.

Plus: How housing costs correlate with homelessness nationwide. Transitional kindergarten ushers in a new era of education. And what's an "atmospheric river" anyway?
