The estimated cost of the proposed tunnel beneath the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta has risen to $20.1 billion.

For more on this, KCBS Radio's Holly Quan was joined by Peter Gleick, Senior Fellow and co-founder of the Pacific Institute and member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.

The social media app Fizz allows students to sign up for anonymous accounts with their school emails and make posts about their professors, roommates, and more. However, it shouldn't be a surprise that these posts often lean into bullying, racism, and sexism.

Now, San Francisco's Sacred Heart Cathedral Prep is at the center of the controversy after a hateful message was posted to Fizz from a school-associated email.
