Greetings, babies, and welcome to the first ever episode of The Drain.

This is a podcast covering California news and culture. Hosted by journalist Dave Kempa (founding editor of VOICES: River City) and Max (a.k.a. Sweet Palma, producer of the violently famous Seeking Derangements), we discuss the liberal California hegemony through a leftist lens, just steps from the state Capitol.

Free episodes (The Drain) every Tuesday. Premium episodes (The Plug) every Friday.
