We have a packed show for today’s Your Call Media Roundtable, where I’ll be guest hosting. First, we’ll cover the breaking news of California senator Diane Feinstein’s death last night. We’ll be joined by Arthur Delany, HuffPost reporter who covers politics and the economy on Capitol Hill. Delany will also discuss the real impact of a government shutdown on millions of families.
Then we’ll discuss two documentaries from The Marshall Project and Frontline about the criminal justice system in the US.
Two Strikes examines how a former West Point cadet got life in prison under the little-known two-strikes law, and Tutwiler documents what happens to pregnant women in prison and their newborns.
Joining us will be:
- Elaine McMillion, documentary filmmaker and the director of Tutwiler
- Ursula Liang, award-winning director and producer of Two Strikes

Tonight on State of the Bay, we’ll talk with Dr. Peter Gleick, co-founder of the Pacific Institute, about California’s water woes.
Then we’ll dive into a conversation about the Derek Chauvin verdict and and how that decision fits into the context of a criminal justice system that has long been plagued by racial bias.
And finally, we’ll hear from Travis Monson about his quest to walk every street in San Francisco.
