We are happy to have back Roque & Brian to talk about this year's Swede Fest film festival happening at the Tower Theatre in December.
Totally get into what it's like booking something at the Tower Theatre, post (all the things that happened), and get all the details of this year's Swede Fest.
Also, take the temperature of Art Hop and try to decide if Art Hop today is in good shape or if it needs a reset.

I'll warn ya straight up: We spend some time talking about our hair. Don't worry, after that, we get back to our normal Fresno banter.
We talk about people getting vaccinated around town and what that means with things opening up. Is there live music in Fresno's near future? What thing would you keep after the Pandemic is over? Measure P is official now so what would be our dream use of Measure P Money? Yes we are still talking about the Tower Theatre and Adventure Church and we bring back our old friend: Bike Lanes!
BAND OF THE EPISODE: Jason Nevermind & DJ4AM.

Welcome to the best Fresno month of the year, October.
It's the season for the big. big. Big. BIg. BIG Fresno Fair and we discuss. Josh answers back at an (if anything) odd mailer the Devin Nunes campaign sent out that slams the Fresno Bee. Fulton Street has more eating options, is that not a good thing? And much more Fresno nerd talk!

Fresno! Let's keep calm. The heat will end. The fires will be put out. The sky will soon be less orange.
While we wait for that, let's talk about the firestorm that followed a Clovis girl moving to a loft in Downtown Fresno. Followed by a Fresno City Council acting like mom is not in the room, during meetings. We also cover some Fresno places we miss, Fresno's homeless "problem", wonder if we should care that Granville Homes is running a news website, play some new stuff from Patrick Contreras and a lot more Fresnooooo!
Thanks for listening!
