Daniel Guss and Joey Tuccio

This week on the John Phillips Show, the conversation gets real about the state of Los Angeles and the upcoming mayoral election. With the city's problems piling up, from animal cruelty to homelessness, it's clear that something needs to change. But will the next mayor be able to make a real difference?

The show starts with a discussion about the city's public bank proposal, which has been years in the making but still hasn't gotten off the ground. Daniel Guss, a muckraker extraordinaire, joins the conversation to share his insights on the matter. He's not afraid to speak truth to power, and his comments about the city council's lack of qualifications and the wasteful spending on consultants are eye-opening.

The conversation then shifts to the mayoral election, with a focus on the two main candidates, Karen Bass and Nithya Raman. Joey Tuccio, an animal rescuer and activist, shares his personal story of fighting for the rights of animals in Los Angeles and his frustration with the city's inaction. He's not afraid to speak out against the city's corruption and the harm it causes to innocent lives.

If you're as fed up with the status quo as we are, tune in to this episode to hear the unfiltered truth about the state of Los Angeles and the mayoral election. Join the conversation and let's demand better from our leaders.
