Is what I would say, if the federal government was coming for OTLS
Luckily, we are just a small city YouTube show with less than 100 subscribers—hopefully not for long. The Feds probably don’t even know we exist—hopefully never. So while DOGE continues dismantling key government institutions and slashing critical funding for social programs—even here in our congressional district—the Over the Loud Speaker show will continue pumping out content every month. Unless Collin and I are thrown in some prison in El Salvador.
Episode 5 is a bit of a long one (maybe that’s not a bad thing for a Sunday night without White Lotus). We cover the headlines, which include the HUSD Superintendent resigning, the City Council reigning in the Community Services Commission, and the City Council's priorities discussion. This led to a very insightful discussion around food vending and chicken mannequins, which apparently the Mayor hates and we love. Finally, we wrapped up the episode by introducing our big idea: Proportional Representation.
We know there are a lot of cool political content to watch on the interwebz—I mean Bernie Sanders was performing Fight the Oligarchy at Coachella for God’s sake! So we really appreciate you supporting our show and sharing it with everyone you know in Hayward. Our goal is still to reach 100 subscribers. If we can reach 100 subscribers, who knows, maybe we will be able to livestream at the upcoming Hayward Night Market (who needs Coachella when you have the Hayward Night Market). How cool would that be?
As always, send us your questions, your thoughts, and your love.
