This week, #DamienTalks with Joe Linton, the editor of Streetsblog Los Angeles. Linton has overseen our efforts to expand our coverage outside of the boundaries of the city of Los Angeles into the San Gabriel Valley in 2016. As a result, he has a lot to say when asked if he has any opinions on what the biggest 2016 SGV story was, and what the biggest SGV stories will be in the next calendar year.

This is our second to last podcast of the year, but if you are taking an early trip to visit loved ones during the holidays, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your support for this podcast and for Streetsblog.

Currently, all the Streetsblogs are doing their end of the year fundraising drives. If you want to continue to support this podcast, Streetsblog L.A. and the work we do, please click here and get started on your donation.
