Debate and Twenty One Pilots

Tue, 09/20/2016 - 6:05pm | Rocket Drew

A couple exciting things happened this past week. The first was twenty one pilot's release of "Cancer" and old My Chemcial Romance classic. This cover is part of a compilation of MCR covers from their magnum opus album The Black Parade. A current pop-punk or metalcore band covers every song in the album and Cancer is TOP's. This coincides with next week's release of the ten-year anniversary album, The Black Parade / Living with Ghosts which includes a boatload of newly released demos. Rocket talks about the potential for the covers and their implications in relation to MCR's original artistic vision. Rocket talks about the latest and greatest Acme play reading—The Arabian Nights and the upcoming one, And Then They Came for Me: Remembering the World of Anne Frank. The other exciting thing was the first debate tournament of the year with the Speech and Debate team. Rocket talks about some of the debate topic's from this past Saturday.

Davisville, Sept. 19, 2016: More People Than Homes to Hold Them

Mon, 09/19/2016 - 6:55pm | Bill Buchanan

More people are coming to Davis to study, work, or live, but the supply of housing isn’t keeping pace, especially with UC Davis adding thousands of new students. Today we talk with Davis real estate broker Steve Boschken about current prices, rents, the spillover to Woodland, other trends, and potential options. Boschken has roots in town -- he grew up here, and also studied environmental design and urban planning at UC Davis.

“I don’t think that the way we patchwork new subdivisions in, when they do finally get in, is the best way to plan a community,” he says. “They’re planning it only on what’s here in front of them today, instead of what Davis is going to look like 100 years from now.
