He's also hosted episodes the anti-LGBTQ attempted takeover of the Glendale School Board, on the power of the District Attorney, and an overview of the different City Council races. Plus re-airings of interviews of candidates running for Congress in Adam Schiff's current seat, including Laura Friedman, Mike Feuer, Nick Melvoin, Sepi Shyne, and Maebe A. Girl.
