Heads up: This live recording comes with a few “authentic” technical hiccups (let’s call it character, not static). Luckily, the enthusiasm more than makes up for it—it practically jumps through the speakers.
In the studio with me are Richard Jia and Gray Eby of MyDavisCalifornia, chatting—sometimes loosely, sometimes wildly off-track—about their website and the quirky little town we all love, Davis.
Now, this isn’t your average “local blog where someone posts about their cat and favorite burrito joint.” Nope. MyDavisCalifornia is a full-on content playground: stories, visuals, collaborations, insider tips—the works. Born in 2021 out of sheer enthusiasm (and possibly too much coffee), it’s become the digital buddy you didn’t know you needed for exploring Davis. |
August 29, 2025 marks the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina making landfall along the Gulf of Mexico coast. In the days that followed, many areas of New Orleans (most famously the Ninth Ward) were inundated as the levees failed under the rising waters. Over one million residents were displaced to neighboring states, and 1300-1500 people lost their lives. Unsurprisingly, the storm and its long aftermath profoundly affected the city's musicians and artists -- financially, socially and spiritually. On this week's show, we commemorate the anniversary with songs released by NOLA musicians in the years following the storm. We also will preview some of the acts that are performing at this weekend's Chalk It Up! festival at Fremont Park in Sacramento.
