This is our first show of 2025 and it is already starting with some huge news: We finally will discuss the incredible news that County Supervisor Nora Vargas will not be taking the oath of office for her re-election. The balance of power in the county is once again up for grabs, right as the county braces for thousands more people being forced into treatment. What’s going to happen? Who’s going to run? We’ll get into everything plus an update about stunning news from the San Diego Housing Commission: It has decided it no longer has the resources to dole out vouchers to specific low-income housing projects. IT’s a move that could have major implications for the Sports Arena project and other efforts to provide housing.

This is the last episode of 2024 and we have a super mega roundtable for you. I am in studio with the core four – Lopez, Jakob, Bella – and we have one open seat so we’re going to bring in one reporter at a time. We’ll ask them each what’s going to happen. What’s one thing they want to know "What’s going to happen?" I think that’s the core compelling ingredient of media of all kinds. If a piece of content makes you wonder “What’s going to happen?” you’re hooked. So prepare to be hooked. Show Outline and Notes You can show your support for our podcast today by going to vosd.org/podpeople . 00:00:00 Intro 00:06:56 Segment 1 What’s Going to Happen to TikTok? Bella Ross - Social Media Producer Pew Research on TikTok Book: Infinite Just What’s Going to Happen to Forces of Gentrification on the South Bay? Jim Hinch - South County Reporter Gentrification Is Coming for South San Diego County South County leaders have made it a goal to catch up to wealthier North County cities. But the race to the top risks leaving some residents behind. Port of San Diego: Chula Vista Bayfront Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center 00:29:12 Segment 2 What’s Going to Happen to Nathan Fletcher and His Accuser? Andrea Lopez-Villafaña, Managing Editor, Daily News Who Is Nathan Fletcher?

Tigist Layne - North County Reporter Morning Report: The Builder’s Remedy Prevailed in an LA Court. Will the Same Happen in Del Mar? 00:36:46 Segment 3 What’s Going to Happen to AI in San Diego Schools? Jakob McWhinney - Education Reporter The Learning Curve: San Diego Unified’s AI Future Is Now San Diego Unified paid $83,000 to integrate its high school English curriculum into an online platform and got access to an AI tool as well. Now, some teachers are using it to grade student work. The Progress Report: AI Is in Use at San Diego Unified – But the District Doesn’t Have its Own Plan The rise of AI-supported education technology caught San Diego Unified without a policy. Now, as teachers and students within the district have begun to use AI products in the classroom, district leaders are creating one. What’s Going to Happen to Federal Funding and the Impact on Environmental Projects? MacKenzie Elmer - Environment Reporter Officials Fear Nightmare Flooding from New Tijuana River Border Wall A lifting gate structure could impede the Tijuana River’s flow if it fails to rise during heavy rains like San Diego just experienced. Time to Evacuate the Tijuana River Valley? County officials said the pollution problem is far from triggering a mandatory mass exodus from South Bay, but it’s not totally outside the realm of possibilities. 00:50:43 Segment 4 What’s Going to Happen to the City of San Diego in an “Era of Austerity”? Scott Lewis - Editor in Chief County Supe Slams San Diego Mayor’s Budget City Council budget hearings will begin next week. The City Council has until June 30 to approve the budget. Cup of Chisme: Cuts Hit Different What’s Going to Happen to the Mega Shelter?

Four Big Disputes Dogging the City’s Quest to Open Its Biggest Shelter Yet The City Council is set to vote Monday on a proposed 1,000-bed shelter and there are lots of questions and disagreements over the city’s plans. Morning Report: Mega-Shelter Monday July 22, 2024 The 30-year lease agreement for the Middletown warehouse the city wants to turn into the city’s largest long-term homeless campus – and the concept itself – have spawned major questions: What’s the value of the building? Can the city count on the site and its potential landlord? Should the city open a big shelter and pull from housing funds to pay for it? Is it sustainable?

This week we have a special episode for you. This coming year is going to be a difficult one for leaders of San Diego Unified School District. They are facing a massive budget deficit, ongoing stagnation in enrollment. They’re grappling with the aftermath of scandals involving sexual misconduct allegations that got the attention of the federal government and brought down the district’s superintendent. Cody Petterson was just named the new school board president. He’ll guide the five member Board of Education for the District. He’s taking over that role from his colleague, trustee Shana Hazan. Both of them came into the studio to talk about all these issues and more. It was a frank and interesting exchange on some very touchy topics in education.

December 13, 2024 The election just ended. The election just started. We often accuse politicians of being short sighted but one thing they definitely plan far in advance is their next political move. We may have heard the first shots in the 2028 mayoral race. The city has a new president of the City Council and the region has a new Republican leader, same as the old one. And the county passed a rule about what the sheriff can and cannot do with immigration enforcement officers and the sheriff said thank you but I run my own show. We get into the meat and potatoes of it all.

The Registrar of Voters made us wait six days for an update on the vote count from November 5 – 16 days ago. The main local race we’re still watching is the Oceanside mayoral race. Just 31 votes separated the incumbent and her challenger. Senior investigative reporter Will Huntsberry will join us later on the show to explain why the city of San Diego has purchased at least $1 million worth of gear from a man involved in one of the largest law enforcement scandals in San Diego’s history. And new data about local schools just dropped. There’s some encouraging news but it’s still kind of bleak.

Well, that was an election. We will go back through the races we drafted last week. As always, there are a couple nail-biters as we begin the tradition of waiting for updates every afternoon. But we can say that San Diego incumbents did well. Mayor Todd Gloria and the City Councilmembers hoping for another term did fine. So did Terra Lawson Remer, the county supervisor who faced down millions in spending against her. Turns out all she had to do was all we suspected she had to do: Connect her opponent Kevin Faulconer to Trump. But like everywhere else in the country, Trump did better here than before.

It’s the last lap of this election season and we have updates on several major races in San Diego. Is Mayor Todd Gloria overstating his creation of homeless shelter beds? Yes. Did Terra Lawson Remer use campaign funds for her kid’s preschool? Yes. She has a good defense but it’s interesting. And in South Bay, the chair of the County board of Supervisors has created several enemies. Finally, remember that fake charity that had fake volunteers selling concessions at Petco Park? Well two of its workers are now running a new charity. The thing is, we cannot figure out what the charity does. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…
