Ever wondered how a city pulses with life, through its victories and its challenges? Join Craig Sherwood and Ross Benson, back to the studio, where we peel back the layers of Burbank’s vibrant community. We cheer on local hero Debbie Watson's Earth Day word-of-the-day triumph and delve into the tender moments of family life, from celebrating birthdays to the sweet solace of ice cream after a tonsillectomy. But it’s not all cake and candles; we also pay tribute to Dolores Huerta's recent visit to the city council and candidly reassess the unexpectedly engaging financial reports from Treasurer Crystal Palmer.
As the heart of Burbank beats, we grapple with the complexities surrounding homelessness, touching on the fragile thread between personal liberties and the welfare of our town. We reminisce about the OJ Simpson pursuit's local ties and its imprint on our collective memory, then shift gears to extend a warm welcome to Burbank Police Department's newest officer, Francisco Grado, amidst conversations on the nuances of police recruitment. And because everyone loves a good mea culpa, Craig shares his previous underestimations—turns out, financial reports can come to life in unexpected ways.
Dodger the Shepsky may have stolen the show with his birthday antics, but there's more to our episode than wagging tails. We navigate the practicalities and pleasantries of Tax Day and the delicious anticipation of a new bakery in town. Diving into city affairs, we highlight the Sustainable Burbank Commission and the Arts and Public Places Committee’s efforts. Wrapping up with a personal Dodger tale, we affirm that sometimes, the simplest joys—like a dog rejoicing over a found toy—embody the spirit of our community.
