I'm Listening: Teens, Parents, and Mental Health

San Francisco is known for a lot of things - the Golden Gate Bridge, Karl the Fog, the Giants - but it’s also known as a haven for the foodie. From a square slice of pizza from Golden Boy Pizza to a mission style burrito from La Taqueria and about a million other delights in between - the food scene in the city by the bay is definitely elite. But has it always been that way? And in these post-pandemic times, has that scene changed for the better or the worse?

We’ll dive into those questions and more with Trevor Felch - food, travel, and drinks writer. You might recognize his name from food and wine reviews in the Nob Hill Gazette or from several Fodor's Guidebooks to San Francisco and other parts of the Bay Area. He’s also the author of ‘San Francisco Cocktails’ and of ‘City Eats San Francisco’ which came out earlier this year.

We are drawing ever closer to November and to when America will decide who will be the next president. According to most polls - at least so far - Vice President Kamala Harris holds a narrow lead over former President Donald Trump. But here in California, especially among Latino voters, support seems to be tipping a bit more blue.

A recent statewide survey has found that Harris has a strong lead over Trump among California’s Latino communities - 60% choosing Harris, 28% with Trump. But this poll looked at so much more when it comes to what Latino voters are concerned about this election season. 

To help us delve deeper into all this, KCBS's Mary Hughes is joined by Christian Arana, vice president of civic power and policy at the Latino Community Foundation, which conducted the poll. The LCF is the nation’s largest Latino surveying organization, working to invest in Latino-led organizations and to increase political participation of Latinos in California.
