What do Toy Story 3, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly all have in common? They were all the third episode in a series and the best one yet… something we’re aiming for with today’s episode, too!
In this episode:
0:55: Daniel Lurie is off to a fast start as mayor, helping resolve a hotel strike, leading steet cleanups, and delivering an inauguration speech full of “hard truths”
4:26: California’s new “daylighting” law hasn’t been well-communicated; make sure you don’t rack up tickets in what used to be perfectly legal spots
6:46: In 2024, San Francisco homicides hit a historic low, and most major crime categories saw modest to huge decreases, too. This follows a nationwide trend in most major cities, but perception vs. reality are still in conflict in SF
10:44: A new weekend-only pop-up bakery in the Mission is reimagining conchas, the traditional Mexican staple
