The Arrest Bush Now! protest is happening this Monday, 7PM, at the Terrace Theater at 300 E Ocean Blvd. Bring a sign & get ready to shame some liberals!

Confused about the CA Recall? So were we. We investigate the shady AF history of the Newsoms, compare the 2003 recall that got The Governator into office, & go through the top candidates.

We interview Long Beach Area Peace Network activist Anna Christensen about LB’s slice of the NOlympics campaign, the Belmont Shore pool. Not only is this thing a money pit in a City with crumbling infrastructure, but it also will have to be torn down in less than 10 years if built.

It’s a big club & you ain’t in it! We talk about crashing Councilwoman Zendejas’ swanky fundraiser literally sponsored by a landlord company getting $144,000,000 of LB City money. Spoiler alert: She hid from the tenants. We also talk about the critical issue of fireworks in LB & how it’s the only important problem the city has.
