There will be one very mad podcast host if the Tijuana River Sewage problem is not resolved by 2036. That podcast host is Scott Lewis.

We bet you’ll be shocked to learn signature gatherers could not answer a reporter’s question about the change they were seeking. We talk about why they can’t explain what’s happening with the Tijuana River crisis at the border.

Also on the show: California agreed with Midway Rising developers that they never needed to get rid of the height limit in Midway, even though the city put it on the ballot twice just to support them. We’ll explain.

Plus: It's mailer season and District 2 has a pretty good competition shaping up. Bella Ross walks us through District 2 city council candidates and what she took away from the things she learned.

Scott’s Pledge (TJ River Edition)

San Diego's budget could be in a lot of trouble if voters repeal the city's trash fee.

City leaders say if that happens, their only option would be to cut up to $150 million from city services like stormwater, fire and police departments. Our hosts explain what's at stake.

Also on the show: The county governance reforms are marching forward. But one state Senator says her fellow Democrats need to change the plan before it goes on the ballot.

Finally: Former Voice of San Diego reporter Ashly McGlone stopped by to talk about her new project Reconnaissance Man.

Before the Vietnam War America knows, James Lyle Steele, an original Marine reconnaissance man, was in it. Operating at the leading edge of a brutal, evolving conflict — poisoned bamboo, booby traps, tunnels, ambushes, and helicopter assaults— he faced a war that demanded constant vigilance. This episode offers Steele's firsthand account of the war before most Americans realized it had begun, detailing the constant, deadly reality of his experience.

The Meteor Heading for the City's Budget

On the latest episode, our hosts talk about some local issues that impact us all.

First: County supervisors have officially put a measure on the ballot that will extend term limits of county supervisors. But it’s way more interesting than that. We explain.

Next: The mayor of San Diego has put out a new proposed budget. It’s got some folks mad. But it was always going to do that. We'll give you our thoughts.

Also on the show: The podcast crew gave you some alternative options, sort of, for the upcoming California governor election.

LivingForGod AndCountry

On the latest show, our podcasts hosts discuss the topic of broken promises.

First up: A temporary fire station in San Diego is still temporary 11 years after elected officials promised to deliver a permanent fire station in Skyline.

Next: School district officials promised to fix the plumbing at a local school, but three different campaigns for tax increases later and it’s still not fixed.

Also on the show: Last week when we recorded, U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell was the frontrunner in the governor’s race. But after bombshell sexual assault allegations surfaced, he’s dropped out of the race and left Congress. The canceling happened at warp speed. We give our uninformed thoughts on the governor’s race.
