Welcome to another episode of the Doomloop Dispatch, the news show covering the worst parts of the San Francisco Bay Area. In this episode, Kevin speaks to former Berkeley City Council member Kate Harrison about Berkeley politics, mainly the forces gentrifying the famously liberal city. We get into the fights over roads and sidewalks, the treatment of the homeless and why she quit the council.
