Education during the pandemic, the reason why Davis schools enrolls close to a thousand students who don't live in town, the opening of the Mondavi Center at UC Davis, reviews of countless theater and music performances -- Jeff Hudson has written and reported about such subjects for the Davis Enterprise and Capital Public Radio since the 1990s. Today we talk about stories and some of the beats he has covered, and now that he has retired, what he wants to do next.

About Bill Buchanan

I'm a journalist at heart, although I also spent 15 years working in tech and information security communications for UC Davis. I started Davisville in 2008 so I could interview people about events, stories and situations involving Davis. My guests so far include town leaders (elected and otherwise), UC Davis researchers, musicians (including three who played in the Byrds), a TV horror/sci-fi show host, businesspeople, a former Alcatraz convict, foster parents, students, people who work in the media, authors, a survivor of Auschwitz, a survivor of Jonestown, two World War II combat veterans, comics, the commander of the USS John McCain, a troop of Davis Girl Scouts who ditched their screens every night for a week, high-school reunion organizers -- basically, anyone doing something interesting with a connection to Davis.
