05/22/26 – HIGHLIGHTS of Brown Bag Mornings: Mayor Karen Bass & THE HOMIE HELPLINE HEIST

We hit a wild Homie Helpline for Nate, whose "accidental" namesake friend maxed out his cards for a $1,000 spree, and Marcy, who came home from an armed robbery stint to find her homie in Watts had been renting out her BMW to the whole complex! Don’t You Know I’m Local, so we’re debating the terrifying 140 mph "bullet buses" that might be terrorizing the 5 freeway soon just to get people to San Francisco in three hours. Mayor Karen Bass stops by to talk about her deep Latino roots, her first protest at age 10, and why collaboration is the only way to actually get things done in the city. Between the "scammer gem" of credit card disputes and Vic’s personal beef with $40 SF parking, we’re keeping it a hundred on the streets!
