Episode description

Much of San Diego experienced hours of thunder, lightning and pouring rain, less than 24 hours after a mild Santa Ana. Another rainstorm may be on its way at the end of the week. Plus, the oil spill in Orange County could have an environmental impact for years. Also, San Diego Nobel Prize-winner Ardem Patapoutian talks about the journey that brought him to the U.S. and a career in science. In addition, how will the new sweeping laws on policing affect law enforcement and the people they serve? Meanwhile, as parts of the United States, such as Texas, are restricting access to abortion, in Mexico, things seem to be headed in the other direction. And, while the military has become more racially diverse, a recent survey found Black, Latino, and Asian service members don’t always feel welcome off-base. Finally, the Haunted Hotel reopens to scare people in person after being closed last year because of the pandemic. Owner Greg DeFatta speaks to KPBS Arts Reporter Beth Accomando about what to expect.
