from Monks & Merrill

Hour 3 - A bizarre and troubling mix of Southern California stories: millions of pounds of rotting food finally removed from the burned Boyle Heights warehouse—only to spark outrage when the waste is dumped nearby in Simi Valley. Plus, at least 20 people ransack a Superior Grocers during a South L.A. street takeover, L.A. voters face a ballot question over whether the city can sell asphalt, and the hosts ask: If Lake Ontario can become “Lake America,” could the city of Ontario be next?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
