Listen "Take 2 This Morning: PG&E Storm Response, Prop 50 Aftermath, & NYC's Youngest Mayor"

Episode Synopsis

Gasia, Sal, and Andre dive into the aftermath of a wet and windy morning across the Bay Area, featuring an on-the-ground report from James Torres about the storm's impact in the North Bay, including power outages and PG&E's response. The conversation shifts to politics, analyzing the overwhelming passage of California's Prop 50 redistricting measure and the swift Republican-led lawsuit challenging the results. Then, we look East to the surprising election of Zoran Mamdani, New York City's independent and youngest mayor in over a century, discussing his democratic socialist platform and historic win. Finally, the show wraps up with a lighter but still important segment on what to do with your post-Halloween pumpkin (hint: don't landfill it!) and a ponder on the ethics and emotional reality of dog cloning.
