Anthony Orrico, a news assistant with the Daily Forty-Niner, joined this episode of Beach Weekly to discuss the recent California Faculty Association faculty strike, which ended after a tentative agreement was reached on the first scheduled day of striking. He shared information about the history of CFA strikes, new negotiated working conditions and when the agreement may be finalized.
The Long Beach State dining hall management team conducted a study in October 2022 to observe the amount of food wasted by students in the campus dining halls. During the study, it was determined that about 15,000 pounds of food were wasted between the three dining facilities. When food waste was measured a year later in Oct. 2023, the overall waste had only gone down 30 pounds. As a result of the study, the Food Waste Reduction Campaign was formed with the goal of reducing waste by 20%. The Office of Sustainability has since worked with ASI and Sustain U to provide other sustainability workshops and events.
The International Court of Justice has found that it is "plausible" that Israel has violated the Genocide Convention with actions committed during the recent conflict in Gaza. The ICJ has ordered that Israel must abide by the Genocide Convention. Although the court has not called for a complete ceasefire, it has voted that Israel must take all measures in its power to stop anything related to genocide in Gaza, prevent and punish those inciting genocide, ensure humanitarian needs in Gaza and more.

Host Lei Madrigal wraps up season 11 of Beach Weekly with topics like the Not Alone @ the Beach organization at Long Beach State, the collapse of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and more.
An organization on campus called “Not Alone @ the Beach” works to bring attention to power-based harassment on campus like stalking, abuse and violence. The group also puts a large emphasis on providing support to victims, teaching prevention methods and offering sexual education. Students should know that while coping with being a victim of sexual assault is difficult, no one is ever alone in the process.
On Friday, Nov. 17, Long Beach city officials said that a major cybersecurity breach caused the city’s main website and other online city-related resources to be inaccessible. Officials say there was no initial request for ransom, but they confirmed that city data was stolen. Currently, they don’t know what kind of data or how much was taken. The city’s main website is back up and running as of last Monday, but investigations into the extent of the breach could last months, according to the city.
New toll lanes on the 405 freeway from the Los Angeles County line to Costa Mesa opened last Friday, Dec. 1, according to Orange County Transit Authority.

Vehicles with three or more passengers are allowed to use the toll lanes for free as well as motorcycles and vehicles that have veterans’ or disabled persons' license plates. Clean air vehicles qualify for a 15% discount on tolls.
Three college students of Palestinian descent were shot at close range while they were out on a walk in Burlington, Vt. The suspect, 48-year-old Jason J. Eaton was sent to jail on three counts of second-degree attempted murder and has pleaded not guilty. The victims were wearing traditional Palestinian attire and speaking in a mix of English and Arabic when they were approached, and the incident is being investigated as a possible hate crime.
Montana was set to ban TikTok on Jan. 1, 2024, but the law was blocked by a district judge before going into effect. The judge said that the planned TikTok ban oversteps state power and violates the First Amendment. The current ruling is preliminary and a trial followed by an ultimate decision is expected for next year.
Nearly all Democrats and over 100 Republicans within the House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly to expel New York Republican George Santos from Congress. Santos has allegedly been indicted on 23 criminal charges including wire fraud, money laundering, false statements to Congress, conspiracy and more. He is the first-ever Republican to be expelled from Congress.
The temporary ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war was extended past its original four-day long pause before attacks resumed on its seventh day. The ceasefire had allowed for 100 hostages to be released by Hamas and 250 Palestinians to be released by Israel. The Israeli military says that it was resuming fighting because Hamas violated the terms of the truce and attacked Israeli territories. Hamas claims that Israel bears full responsibility for the collapse of the ceasefire. The two sides continue to place blame on each other as fighting continues.

In season 11, episode 14 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal discusses the recent workers strike on campus, a temporary ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war and more.
University trade workers at Long Beach State held a one-day strike near the Walter Pyramid on Tuesday, Nov. 14 as the CSU system continues to stall negotiations with the workers. The group, called Teamsters, went on strike at 22 different campuses. The CSU Employees Union, along with four other unions, have reached their own tentative agreements with the CSU which were approved on Nov. 7.
In fall of 2024, Long Beach State will introduce the “Equitable Textbook Access” program, which will provide students with access to all their required textbooks at a flat rate of $250 per semester for full-time students and $165 for part-time students. The “Equitable Textbook Access” fee can be covered by financial aid and makes all required textbooks available to students on Canvas. Students are automatically enrolled in the program but are able to opt out of it by the last day to add or drop classes without approval. The program is intended to make textbooks more accessible and to reduce the campus’s carbon footprint by limiting printing and shipping.
Eighteen speed camera systems will be installed in Long Beach sometime in 2024 in an effort to make roads safer by getting drivers to slow down. Once everything is set in place for the speed cameras to be installed, the public must be notified at least 30 days before they start operating. Additionally, during the first 60 days that the cameras are in operation, violators will get warnings without fines. Fines will range from $50 to $500 and revenue from citations will go toward traffic safety improvements within the city.
On Friday, Nov. 17, Long Beach city officials announced that a major cybersecurity breach caused the city’s main website to be shut down along with bill payment portals, call centers and other city-related services and websites. Officials have not yet disclosed whether or not the breach compromised residents’ and employees’ personal data. They have also not disclosed whether a ransom was requested as part of the attack. Long Beach city officials have directed residents to the city’s social media accounts for updates on recovery.
A mysterious respiratory illness in dogs is spreading through the United States, causing the animals to develop a cough, fever, loss of appetite and other symptoms. The cause of the illness is unclear. Some veterinarians believe it is being caused by a virus while others believe a bacteria is to blame. Most dogs that have contracted the illness have spent time in places with many other dogs like kennels or dog parks.
Israel and Hamas reached a truce through a temporary 4-day ceasefire agreement last Friday, marking the first break in the war since the start in October. During the break, Hamas is set to release 50 hostages who were captured on Oct. 7 and Israel is set to release 150 Palestinian hostages. As of Friday, Nov. 24, Hamas has freed 24 hostages and Israel has released 39 Palestinians. Israel has vowed to resume the war once the ceasefire ends.

In season 11, episode 12 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal discusses a false campus police report, numerous shootings over Halloween weekend and more.
Chief of Police John Brockie sent an email to students last Wednesday revealing that the reported robbery involving a female victim and male suspect on campus did not occur. The University Police Department said the conclusion was made as a result of the investigation done by detectives. The assault and robbery were reported to have happened the night of Sunday, Oct. 29 in the R2 parking lot at 7:30 p.m. According to the UPD, no charges will be sought against the person who made the false police report.
As the winter sports season approaches, school officials are preparing for game relocations as roof leaks continue in the Walter Pyramid. In the past, leaks in the roof of the 30-year-old Walter Pyramid required that sporting events be relocated to the Gold Mine. A recent estimate for repairs to the Walter Pyramid said it would cost $55 million to fix, which is more than double the original building cost of $22 million.
A temporary lake in Death Valley has formed after Hurricane Hilary dumped more than two inches of rain on the desert in a 24-hour time frame. According to park officials, the lake is currently two miles wide, four miles long and only a few inches deep. As water evaporates, the lake is slowly disappearing and could be gone by mid-November.
Toyota announced last Wednesday, Nov. 1 that it is recalling nearly two million RAV4 SUV models from 2013 through 2018 for a potential fire hazard. It is reported that the car batteries can shift during forceful turns, which can lead to fires. The company says it is still preparing a solution to the problem, and RAV4 owners will be notified of a remedy by the end of December.
A mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine on Oct. 25 left at least 18 people dead and 13 injured. The shooting occurred at two locations: a bowling alley and a bar. The shooter, Robert Card, was found dead by law enforcement from a self-inflicted gunshot wound two days after authorities initiated a search for him. On Nov. 3, President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden went to the scene of the deadly shooting to show support for the victims’ families.
Numerous mass shootings in America occurred over the Halloween weekend shortly after the mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine. The weekend’s mass shootings left at least 11 people dead and 76 injured.
President Biden sent Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Israel for the fourth time last Friday, Nov. 3 to urge the country to mitigate civilian deaths during war in the Israel and Palestine territories. The U.S. has not called for a ceasefire but has called for a temporary "humanitarian pause" to allow more aid to enter Gaza and for hostages to be released. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected the “humanitarian pause,” saying Israel’s military forces will not stop until Hamas is defeated.

Season 11, episode 11 of Beach Weekly is a special episode focusing on Israel and Palestine. Host Lei Madrigal is joined by Acsah Lemma, a news assistant with the Daily Forty-Niner, to discuss this conflict in the Middle East, the history of the conflict, its potential outcome and related demonstrations on Long Beach campus.
At Long Beach State, a group called Students for Justice in Palestine protested the Israeli occupation of the West Bank with a walkout on campus on Oct. 25. At the central quad at 1 p.m., about 150 protesters and observers gathered, including members of La F.U.E.R.Z.A.
Students left classes to participate in the walkout at over 100 campuses nationwide. The walkout was first promoted by a student activism group called Dissenters. The group demands an end to Israel’s siege on Gaza, an end to U.S. military funding for Israel and an end to universities partnering with military defense contracts that provide weapons to Israel.
La F.U.E.R.Z.A and Students for Justice in Palestine also arranged a vigil after the walkout outside of Brotman Hall to honor the lives lost during the current Palestine-Israel conflict in the Middle East.

The California State University Employees Union reached a tentative agreement on Oct. 11 with the CSU Chancellor’s Office to implement a “salary step” program for employees. Union members still have to vote to approve the agreement, but, if approved, it would bring a 5% general salary increase effective July 1, 2023 with full retroactive pay. Then, the agreement would bring another 5% raise on July 1, 2024 and an official transition to salary steps on Oct. 1, 2025.
Since 1973, the Bob Murphy Access Center, or BMAC, has offered accommodations and support to students with disabilities. On Oct. 5, BMAC celebrated 30 years of service to Long Beach State with a sold-out ceremony. Five alumni, who were once students assisted by BMAC, were inducted into the center’s Hall of Fame for excelling in creating inclusive environments in their lives outside of Long Beach State. Students needing accommodations can contact the Bob Murphy Access Center for resources and more information. Their office is located in room 110 of the Shakarian Student Success Center and their email address is bmac@csulb.edu.
The 39th annual Long Beach marathon was last Sunday, Oct. 15, which brought in roughly 18,000 people to run the 26.2-mile marathon around the city. The event started at Shoreline Drive and began at 6 a.m. Ryley Fick, a 23-year-old who graduated from Long Beach State last spring, won the women’s race with a time of 2:58:30. Jason Yang won the men’s race with a time of 2:27:04.
The California Commissioner of Labor’s Office issued a fine of $4.8 million, the largest fine given to a hotel in state history, to the Hyatt Regency in Long Beach. The Labor's Office stated that the Hyatt Regency allegedly violated California’s “Right to Recall” law as they did not offer jobs to workers who were laid off as a result of the pandemic.
The U.S. government has reached a settlement with more than 5,000 migrant families who were separated at the southern border between 2017 and 2018 after the Trump administration's "zero-tolerance" policy towards border crossing. According to the settlement, the government will be prohibited from reenacting a “zero-tolerance” policy for at least the next 8 years and it requires the government to continue to identify families who were separated. It also states that families will gain the ability to apply for work permits, and housing and medical services.
A 6-year-old Palestinian-American boy was killed after being stabbed 26 times by his family’s landlord on Oct. 14 in Illinois, according to the Will County Sheriff’s Office. His mother was stabbed at least a dozen times and sustained major injuries. The mother and son were allegedly targeted by their landlord because they are Muslim. Their landlord was charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, two counts of a hate crime and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
President Biden visited Israel last Wednesday to support the country in war and guarantee America’s allyship. Biden’s return to the Oval Office has been marked with an immediate request of almost $106 billion from Congress. Of the $106 billion, only $14 billion is proposed to support Israel. The remaining $82 billion is for replenishing U.S. weapons in Ukraine and anti-fentanyl trafficking task forces across the U.S.-Mexico border.

In season 11, episode 9 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal discusses last week’s on-campus ‘Protest for Palestine,’ ASI’s decision not to raise a Pride flag for OUTober and more.
The Parking and Transportation Department at Long Beach State extensively upgraded its free campus shuttle tracking system with a new app called Passio GO. Passio GO provides precise GPS shuttle tracking, time estimates for shuttle arrivals and a read on any shuttle’s capacity levels.
Members of the La F.U.E.R.Z.A. Student Association and another organization called CSU Students United Against Apartheid rallied on campus in support of Palestine last Tuesday. This comes after Hamas, a Palestinian militant organization, launched an attack on Israel on Oct. 7. Israel declared war on Hamas the next day.
Anthony Orrico, news assistant with the Daily Forty-Niner, and Maya-Claire Glenn, opinions assistant, joined Beach Weekly for a conversation about ASI’s decision not to raise the Pride flag on campus for OUTober. ASI originally planned to raise the Pride flag on Oct. 2 for the rest of the month but revoked their decision on Sept. 18. The conversation elaborates on ASI representatives’ explanations for why the Pride flag was not raised, how students are reacting and more.
Gov. Gavin Newsom rejected a bill on Sept. 30 that would have given striking workers the right to unemployment checks. He says that he vetoed this bill because the state's unemployment fund is already $18 billion in debt. This bill was proposed because of the recent and current worker strikes in California. The writers' strike in Hollywood ended in September after about four months. Kaiser medical workers went on strike for three days earlier this month, and hotel workers and actors are currently striking, all for higher wages and better conditions.

In season 11, episode 8 of Beach Weekly, host Lei Madrigal covers the reopening of the Beach Hut convenience store on campus, “rainbow capitalism” and more.
The Beach Hut convenience store on campus is now reopened after a three-year temporary closure and has implemented Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology. Guests enter the Beach Hut by swiping their card or using their phone’s tap-to-pay, which allows the turnstiles to open. Then, they go inside, pick up what they need and walk out. The Beach Hut is located in between the library and the Academic Services building. It is open Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and is closed on Sundays.
The La F.U.E.R.Z.A. Student Association at Long Beach State set up a demonstration to raise awareness on campus of 43 missing Indigenous students who disappeared on Sept. 26, 2014 after being captured by police who were working in collusion with local drug cartels. Posters with the missing students’ names and photos were arranged on the ground surrounded by flowers and candles in front of the Liberal Arts 5 building. Yearly memorials and protests are held all around the globe on Sept. 26 in honor of the 43 still-missing students.
The Writers Guild of America ended their nearly five-month strike with Hollywood studios on Sept. 27 after reaching a provisional agreement on their collective contract. With the new WGA deal, basic wages will be increased by 5% in the first year, 4% in the following year and 3.5% in the third year. Viewership data will also be more transparent to allow for accountability in compensation and there are new minimum staffing rights to protect writers from overworking.
Pakistani officials and activists reported that on Sept. 25, Pakistan resumed issuing ID cards to transgender citizens after a four-month-long pause that came when a court ruling eradicated a law that the country had put in place to protect transgender rights. Human rights activists have appealed the court ruling, and in Pakistan, a court ruling cannot take effect if there are appeals that have not been decided. Because of this, transgender people in Pakistan can continue to receive IDs.
To end the episode, opinions assistant Maya-Claire joined the show for a conversation on “rainbow capitalism,” which is when a corporation profits off of LGBTQ+ themed products without supporting the community. Maya-Claire spoke about the history of “rainbow capitalism” and how it makes her feel as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.

India’s name may change to Bharat, the Hindi word for India. The prime minister wants to change the name in an effort to fully embrace Hinduism, which is the country’s most popular religion.

Listen to season 11, episode 4 of Beach Weekly as the host, Lei Madrigal, talks about students regaining graduation privileges, an uptick in nationwide COVID cases and more.
Having written an article about the temporary closure of the Child and Family Center on campus for renovations, Sam Farfán, the Daily Forty-Niner’s community engagement editor, joined the show for an interview about the topic. The CFC is closed until January 2025, and this closure displaced parents, children and employees. Once it reopens, the center will feature a doubled enrollment capacity, new classrooms and more.
The Daily Forty-Niner’s editor-in-chief, Christal Gaines-Emory, also joined Beach Weekly for a conversation about new graduation procedures for Long Beach State. Beginning in spring 2024, graduates will walk the stage and have their names read at their commencement events at Angel Stadium after years of student protests and petitions.
COVID cases are on the rise as there were over 17,000 COVID-related hospitalizations nationwide during the week ending on Aug. 26. Compared to the week prior, this is a nearly 16% increase. The World Health Organization has been monitoring a new variant called Pirola since mid-August. Lab research by the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, Mass. shows that Pirola will likely not cause a significant COVID surge in the country. A new and reworked booster vaccine is expected to be FDA-approved by the beginning of this week to combat recent COVID cases.
Mexico’s Supreme Court completely decriminalized abortions Wednesday, Sept. 6, ruling that limiting abortions is an unconstitutional violation of women's rights. Now, all federal health services in Mexico must offer abortion to anyone who requests it.
A 38-year-old man and a 55-year-old woman in northern China have been detained for allegedly destroying part of the Great Wall of China with an excavator.

They have been charged with the destruction of a cultural relic.
Hurricane Idalia displaced flamingos after winding through the southeast United States. They are reported to have been seen as far north as southern Pennsylvania.

Listen to this week’s episode of Beach Weekly to learn more about Hurricane Hilary’s effect on Long Beach, the latest moon landing and a relatively new and untapped source of renewable energy.
Long Beach State’s biannual Week of Welcome events are this Tuesday and Wednesday. Events take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Central Quad where clubs and departments on campus set up tents to showcase their organizations and encourage new members to join.
As a lot of construction projects were completed over the summer, there are many noticeable changes around campus. There are new outdoor classroom areas with tables, benches and overhead canopies as well as a new location for the Liberal Arts advising office. Numerous dorm buildings also got upgrades to their bathrooms and fire alarm systems. More projects are expected to be completed soon.
John Snowling, a retired Ventura Police Department sergeant, opened fire at a biker bar in Orange County last Wednesday, August 23, resulting in the deaths of three people and severe injuries to six others. His ex-wife was the target of the shooting. The incident ended with Snowling being fatally shot by Orange County Sheriff's deputies.
Tropical storm Hilary brought more than two inches of rain, 40 mph winds, and over six-foot waves to Long Beach last Sunday. Damages to the city were more manageable than expected since the city took precautionary measures days before the storm touched down. Around 60,000 sandbags were dispersed around the city and numerous other preventive efforts were made to prevent or reduce flooding.
As of August 28, 388 people are still unaccounted for after Maui’s deadly wildfires.

In the first episode of Beach Weekly’s eleventh season, Lei Madrigal welcomes new and returning students to Long Beach State with campus updates.
The Back to the Beach events will be held next Tuesday and Wednesday from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. at the Student Union Southwest Terrace where students can learn more about services and programs on campus. Tuesday also marks this semester’s first weekly Farmer’s Market which takes place in front of the Student Recreation and Wellness Center every Tuesday from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
The university bookstore used to have a satellite store on 2nd Street in Belmont Shore that sold Long Beach State merchandise and other school items. Over the summer on June 19, the store permanently closed after 15 years of service so the Beach Shops department can increase its focus on the remaining on-campus stores.
Long Beach State has adopted a new, alternative version of the Elbee mascot that features the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower, a symbol that someone with a hidden disability might use to share that they have a condition that is not immediately apparent. Hats, shirts, and other merchandise that have the Long Beach State Hidden Disabilities Sunflower will be available for purchase at the bookstore by the beginning of the semester.
Parking permits this year will remain the same prices as last year and not increase as they were previously expected to. Also, there is now a cell phone waiting area located at the South Campus turnaround where drivers can wait up to 15 minutes without buying a parking permit while they wait for who they are picking up.
The University Police Department has over 1,000 free bike locks to give to students who register their bikes. The UPD is also increasing foot patrols in areas on campus that experience the most theft aiming to mitigate car break-ins. In another effort to increase campus safety, Beach Building Services is looking to add electronic locks to building entrances that will only allow college-approved users into buildings after normal business hours.

In Season 10: Episode 15 of Beach Weekly, Lei Madrigal concludes this semester with news on worker strikes nationwide, CSULB’s commencement controversy and more.
On May 1, union workers at CSU campuses protested for better benefits, better working environments and better treatment. Student workers are also seeking improvements to their working conditions as over 4,000 students have recently filed for union representation. The CSU Employees Union is working on getting all campus workers the basic rights they deserve.
Worker strikes are also prevalent at a national level as the Writers’ Guild of America is pushing for better treatment of writers in film, TV, radio and online media. Workers in Los Angeles and New York City began striking on May 2 and are demanding more residuals from streaming and are trying to prevent being replaced by artificial intelligence.
A ban on backpacks went into effect last Monday at schools in Flint, Michigan. Instead of backpacks, students are required to use clear plastic bags to carry around their belongings in an effort to prevent violence on campus. Since the plastic bags are clear, they make it easier to identify weapons and other threatening contraband that a student could bring to school.
The state of New York will ban fossil fuel equipment in new construction starting in 2026 in an effort to reduce carbon emissions. The governor says that new buildings will use electric power to replace fossil fuels.
Last Wednesday, a seventh-grade student opened fire at a school in Serbia, killing eight students and a school security guard. Since the shooter is only 13 years old, he cannot be held criminally responsible but police detained his father because the shooter used his gun.
After outrage about CSULB’s commencement ceremonies, a protest group called Let ‘23 Walk was formed to oppose the university’s decision. This episode of Beach Weekly concludes with an audio excerpt of one of the main organizers of the protest group discussing the controversy.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This year, the annual affair celebrated the exhibition “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.” According to Vogue, the gala honored the legacy of Lagerfeld—the late designer who helmed fashion houses such as Chanel, Fendi, and his own eponymous line—and raised funds for The Met’s Costume Institute. The biggest stars dressed to impress or in some cases dressed to make us stressed.
According to The New York Times, rumors of a possible romance between the actors Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell swirled online this week after a series of seemingly flirtatious moments catapulted them into the spotlight. The two have been filming their upcoming romantic comedy “Anyone But You” in Australia, and fans have been following along as they post affectionate photos on Instagram and paparazzi photograph them on set. Sweeney, 25, is currently engaged to restaurateur fiancé Jonathan Davino, 38, and were spotted walking around New York City on Friday, April 28, seemingly squashing split rumors. In contrast, Powell has been a hot topic on social media as his longtime girlfriend model Gigi Paris seemed to have called it quits with the Top Gun actor.
Fans got a first look at “The Hunger Games” prequel titled, “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” following the drop of the trailer at CinemaCon on Thursday, April 27. The highly anticipated trailer starts off with Viola Davis, who plays the head game maker Volumnia Gaul, introducing “the creators of the Hunger Games themselves.” 64 years, to be precise — before the adventures of Katniss Everdeen, which were immortalized on screen by Jennifer Lawrence. In the new film, a young Coriolanus Snow (who eventually becomes the vicious president of Panem) takes the spotlight as he is chosen to mentor an impoverished tribute named Lucy Gray Baird during the 10th Hunger Games.
It’s official! Rihanna’s 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show Is now the most-watched of All Time, as stated on an updated Nielsen report. Her first live performance in over seven years garnered over 121 million viewers, surpassing Katy Perry’s 2015 performance that garnered 120.7 million people. The singer brought the heat at Glendale, Ariz.’s State Farm Stadium back in February. She not only revealed she was pregnant with her and partner A$AP Rocky‘s second child, but she also performed her Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits like “Only Girl (in the World),” “We Found Love,” “S&M,” “Rude Boy,” “Work” and more. Congrats to the multi-talented Rihanna.
Well that’s a wrap! It is surreal saying that, but genuinely, thank you everyone for tuning in to Son of a Beach every week! It’s been such a fun ride. So much tea was spilled, breaking news was shared and many funny takes on pop culture were said. This podcast started out last semester as a segment in Beach Weekly and look how far we came? I created “Son of a Beach” to bring joy, fun and drama of course as a way for students and listeners to find out the latest pop culture news, but to hear a different perspective on topics. From cultural appropriation on television to Nick Cannon popping babies, a lot was discussed. Thank you to Rosie Montes and Renzo Pocasangre for partaking in the podcast throughout the semester and school year in their segments.
As the season comes to a close, I want to show my gratitude to everyone at the Daily 49er for giving me the platform to share pop culture news and everything in between on a bigger scale. Lastly, I just want to say thank you for listening.
This has been Kadie here. See you next time on “Son of a Beach!”

The entire Long Beach State campus is built on Puvungna, a large area of sacred land protected by environmental laws that has been a ceremonial center for indigenous Southern California tribes for thousands of years. These tribes believe that the university's upcoming soil treatment plan will damage the site and request that the soil treatment be delayed by one year to give them time to try to get federal funding to carry out the soil plan in their own, more respectful way.
A bipartisan congressional group from California and Nevada is looking to build an electric bullet train connecting the Los Angeles area to Las Vegas. The service would start in San Bernardino and run alongside Interstate 15, making stops in Victor Valley before reaching the Las Vegas strip in just about two hours traveling at around 200 mph. The project would cost around $12 billion in total through federal and private funding.
Last Tuesday, President Joe Biden announced that he is running for re-election in 2024 even though most Americans think he should not seek a second term because of his old age. Additionally, former president Donald Trump is the current leading Republican candidate for the 2024 election.

Looks like there’s MAJOR trouble for Jonathon Majors. As stated on Deadline, the actor is facing domestic violence allegations in NYC after a March 25 incident involving a dispute with a 30-year-old woman. The unnamed victim was taken to a hospital with “minor injuries to her head and neck,” according to authorities at the time. Days following Majors’ arrest, a thread of texts were made public where the alleged victim blamed herself for the incident. It has yet to be authenticated by authorities. On April 17, Majors’ manager from Entertainment 360 and publicist The Lede Company fired him, according to Deadline.
In other major news, Buzzfeed announced on April 20 that it will be releasing and laying off 15% of its staff, amounting to about 180 people following the news of the removal of BuzzFeed’s news division. According to The New York Times, when BuzzFeed News was founded in 2011, in the run-up to the next year’s presidential election, it explored stories both slight and serious through listicles and click-bait-style headlines designed to go viral on social media. The Pulitzer Prize winning news operation soon drew attention for its ambitious, sharp reporting, however, and went on to open overseas bureaus and invest in investigative journalism.
Congratulations to model Sofia Richie and music executive Elliot Grainge who recently tied the knot over the weekend in the South of France. The 24-year-old model and designer, who is the daughter of legendary singer Lionel Richie, exchanged vows with Grainge, 29, the son of Universal Music Group chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge, during a ceremony in Antibes, France, according to People. Richie was stunned wearing three dresses on her big day. Sister Nicole Richie was in attendance and superstar dad Lionel Richie walked Sofia down the aisle. Richie and Grainge began dating in 2021 and became engaged one year later.

The superstar joined Labrinth during his Coachella set on Saturday and surprised fans with a superb performance of Labrinth and Zendaya songs from popular HBO show Euphoria including “All for Us” from the show’s first season and “I’m Tired” from its second. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Zendaya acknowledged the fact that it’s been years since the Euphoria star appeared on stage to sing live during a scheduled set in an Instagram Story discussing the “magical” night. “Thank you all for welcoming me back on that stage with open arms. It’s been a very long time, so I appreciate it,” she said in one story she recorded in the early hours after her performance before heading to bed.

In Season 10: Episode 13 of Beach Weekly, Lei Madrigal discusses Long Beach, national and international news.
A conversation with Hannah Shields, the news editor for the Daily Forty-Niner, gave insight on the rise of anti-Semitism and its effect on Long Beach State students. After a man who shot two men at an LA synagogue this February was proven to be the same man who lingered on campus with a gun last summer, university administration still has not released a statement to Jewish students. The center for Jewish life on campus at Long Beach State, Beach Hillel, strives for communal inclusion of Jewish students.
ASI is hoping to complete their proposal for the Future U Project, a plan to upgrade the student union to meet student needs, by the end of the semester. The new student union would have expanded food services, more seating and study spaces, wellness counseling, and more.
After turning himself into authorities, a former Long Beach State student is facing misdemeanor charges for taking hundreds of photos and videos of men in public restrooms and showers on campus. He has not been allowed back on campus since the incident and is set to appear in court on May 4.
An equipment malfunction caused a sewage spill to dump 250,000 gallons of waste into the L.A. river that flows into the ocean in Long Beach. Contaminated water prompted beach closures in Long Beach on the area’s hottest weekend of the year until water quality is tested and deemed safe.
Last Thursday, SpaceX launched their Starship for the first time, but the rocket exploded mid-flight before reaching space. The rocket was 394 feet tall, the largest and most powerful rocket ever built. The explosion can be seen as a success since just getting off the ground at all was significant progress.
Japanese officials have approved a plan to open the country’s first casino in Osaka in 2029 as a way to encourage tourist spending and create jobs. The project has an investment of 1.8 trillion yen and is projected to bring in over 20 million visitors and 500 billion yen every year.
Trillions of gallons of water sit beneath the Mojave desert in the Fenner aquifer that stretches hundreds of square miles. It could be a way to relieve California of its water shortage, but the idea of tapping this aquifer is opposed by conservationists and the Chemehuevi tribe. The site of the aquifer is an important location for one of the tribe’s spiritual ceremonies.

It’s safe to say that singer Camila Cabello loves it when Shawn Mendes calls her senorita because the two were caught snuggling and kissing throughout the first weekend at the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. On Friday, the pair were spotted in a clip enjoying each other’s company while watching a performance. Cabello and Mendes smiled at each before going in for a steamy kiss, as people in the crowd looked on.
Singer Frank Ocean was headliner for day three of Coachella following Bad Bunny on Friday and Blackpink on Saturday. This was his return to the desert stage after six years and many fans anticipated the big performance. However, the set didn’t start on time. Matter of fact, Ocean didn’t hit the stage until nearly an hour after and the set was cut short to remain on time for the duration of the night. Ocean dropped to headline weekend two and band Blink-182 has replaced them to headline on Sunday.
According to CNN, Netflix’s highly anticipated live reunion Sunday for the season four cast of its reality dating show “Love is Blind” has been delayed after technical issues kept eager fans waiting. Eventually, Netflix opted to tape the show for streaming, announcing it would be available globally at 3 p.m. ET Monday.
Speaking of dating, it looks like Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet are confirmed to be dating after all. If you tuned in last week, then you should remember that I said that Chalamet and Jenner are potentially dating. ET has reported that a source confirmed Kylie and Timothée's rumored relationship, but things aren't quite that serious between them just yet. The pair has been seen on a taco date and Jenner’s car was spotted at Chalamet’s house earlier this month.

In Season 10: Episode 12 of Beach Weekly, Lei Madrigal discusses the most recent local, national and international news.
As the CSULB campus roads see a lot of wear and tear due to the high transportation rate as a commuter school, a three-phase project called the Campus Road Repair Project is underway to enhance campus safety and efficiency. Cracks in roads will be fixed and loose asphalt will be replaced. Pedestrians will get wider sidewalks, drivers will get sturdier roads, and cyclists will get new, safer bike lanes. In total, the completed project is estimated to cost around $2.4 million once all repairs are finished.
An office tower in East Long Beach near the university campus is being turned into 149 off-campus student apartment suites. The new apartment complex will be geared towards Long Beach State students but not officially affiliated with the university. The developers plan to begin leasing apartments in the new building by the 2025-2026 school year.
Last month, the city of Long Beach turned a rarely-used downtown parking lot into a safe site for people living in their cars. The site provides vital resources including restrooms, pet areas and hand-washing stations. There are also Homeless Services Bureau staff on-site to connect homeless people to programs that could provide relief. The site will operate until May 21.
NPR will no longer post new content on Twitter accounts after Twitter’s decision to label the media organization as “government-funded” and “state-affiliated.” NPR is a private, non-profit organization whose institution and board are independent of the government. NPR will continue to be active on all other forms of social media.
The lithium-ion battery in an electric bike caused a fire that resulted in two deaths last Monday in New York City. The bike was charging outside of a multi-family building when it suddenly erupted in flames and quickly made its way to a second-floor apartment.
Last Thursday, Ghana approved a new vaccine for children five months through 36 months old to prevent the spread of malaria. An early-stage testing result from last year found that the vaccine is about 80% effective. The final testing stages of the vaccine are still underway and results are expected by the end of the year. It is not yet known when the vaccine will be widely available.
An enormous amount of water will continue to rush into California’s rivers and streams this spring and summer as a result of melting snowcaps. Two rivers, the Tule and Kern, may exceed 400% of their average runoff from April to July. Reservoirs and basins in Southern California are also expected to overflow.
Somewhere in a forest between Maine and Canada, a ton of meteorites hit Earth and they are waiting to be discovered. The Maine Mineral and Gem Museum is offering $25,000 to the first person to find and turn in any meteorites weighing over two pounds.

Rumors have surfaced that actor Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner are potentially dating. The news sparked in January when an entertainment news channel called Deux Moi posted a breathless “new couple alert!” According to Glamour, sources claim that the rumored couple spent New Year’s together in Aspen, possibly went on vacation to Turks and Caicos in January, and will be attending Coachella together later this month. Jenner, of course, split with her on and off boyfriend and the father of her two kids, Travis Scott, around the holidays last year.
It seems that Nick Cannon may not be done thinking about having children, at least on the recent Howard Stern show. The host of the Masked Singer joked about who he’d most want to become the mother of his next baby — who would become his 13th child total — coming to the conclusion that Taylor Swift would be a perfect fit, according to Billboard. During the interview Stern asked, “Who would be the woman that’d make you have a baby again?” Cannon replied, “I’m not doing this. I can [already] see the headlines … I’m all in. First of all, she’s an amazing songwriter. What I do love about Taylor Swift is the fact that she has been so vulnerable and open with all of her music since she was a young girl.”
"Stranger Things" star Millie Bobby Brown and actor Jake Bongiovi, the son of rock legend Jon Bon Jovi, appeared to announce their engagement on Tuesday, according to NBC News. Brown, 19, posted photos to her Instagram in black and white showing off a giant ring with the caption, "I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all," the British actor wrote on Instagram, apparently referencing Taylor Swift's "Lover." Bongiovi, 20, posted something similar to his Instagram with the caption, “forever”.
The trailer for the upcoming MCU film “The Marvels” dropped its first teaser on Tuesday during Good Morning America. Fans got a first look at the Marvel film starring Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), Ms. Marvel (Iman Vellani), and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris). As stated by Marvel, Carol Danvers also known as Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. The film will also star Samuel L. Jackson, Zawe (Zah-Wee) Ashton, and Park Seo-joon. Nia DaCosta will be directing the anticipated film and Kevin Feige is the producer. “The Marvels” releases in theaters on November 10.

In Season 10: Episode 11 of Beach Weekly, Lei Madrigal discusses the latest happening on campus, locally, and nationwide.
In an interview with Hannah Shields, the news editor for the Daily Forty-Niner, we learned the details of a recent student protest about this year’s commencement ceremonies. The protest, led by fourth-year student Zeina Elrachid, was in opposition to the university’s decision to hold very minimal commencement ceremonies this year where graduates will neither walk across the stage nor have their names called.
Long Beach State students will pay $65 during the fall semester and $89 in the spring for the Instructionally Related Activities fee. During the Spring 2023 semester, students paid $25. The money put towards the activities fee will pull athletics out of their budget deficit of $4.5 million, help fund the school’s 19 sports teams, provide internship opportunities and more.
An increase in deaths on LA Metro public transportation this year has prompted Metro to try to decrease crime rates by playing loud, nonstop classical music at the Westlake/MacArthur stop. The music is meant to be too unbearable to hear all day and would deter people from lingering in stations. Metro hopes a decrease in crime will increase ridership.
Kansas lawmakers have voted to ban transgender women from women’s bathrooms, prisons and domestic violence shelters. Other states are also trying to limit transgender rights. Idaho and Indiana both signed a bill that criminalizes gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth, and 12 other states already have bans on it.
Paris residents have voted to ban e-scooters from the city because they are eyesores, traffic disruptions and safety hazards. About 15,000 e-scooters could be taken off the streets of Paris as soon as August when the city’s contracts with the scooter companies expire.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Hollywood sign in Los Angeles which was originally built by real estate developers in 1923 to attract new residents. The sign was only supposed to be standing for 18 months, but a century later, it is an iconic part of Los Angeles culture.

Amanda Bynes has been put on psychiatric hold after she was found roaming the streets naked and alone. Bynes was seen walking near downtown Los Angeles early Sunday morning without any clothes where she waved down a driver and stated that she was coming down from a psychotic episode.

Bad Bunny’s ex–girlfriend, Carliz De La Cruz Hernández, is suing the superstar for at least $40 million over a well-known voice recording she provided the singer before he became famous.

According to court documents filed in Puerto Rico earlier this month, De La Cruz said she came up with the phrase and her “distinguishable voice” is being used without her permission. Her lawyers argue Bad Bunny’s use violates Puerto Rico’s “law of the right to own image.”

California’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation is a state mandate that requires all cities, towns, and counties to provide affordable housing for their residents around every decade. To avoid building housing, Huntington Beach would usually pay a huge fine instead, but the government will no longer allow the city to ignore its responsibility. After resistance from Huntington Beach, the state of California sued the city for failing to provide affordable housing. Then, Huntington Beach sued the state right back, saying the mandate is too impractical to follow.

After a year of silence, comedian Chris Rock finally addressed what happened in his live Netflix special, “Selective Outrage,” recently released on March 4. In the special, Rock brought up the infamous Will Smith slap that occurred at the 2022 Oscar’s. According to Variety, the title “Selective Outrage” is inspired by the slap. “Will Smith practices ‘Selective Outrage,” Rock explained. “Everybody who really knows, knows I had nothing to do with that shit. I didn’t have any entanglements.”New couple alert! Singer Avril Lavigne and rapper Tyga are the latest celebrity couple to emerge. According to PageSix, the new couple attended the Y/Project show on Tuesday in matching long leather coats after confirming their relationship with a kiss. The “Sk8er Boi” singer paired her floor-sweeping, shoulder-padded outerwear with a Y/Project clutch and sunglasses, while the “Taste” rapper teamed his trench with sporty shield-style shades and a blinged-out chain. The pair have been on a roll with PDA throughout Paris Fashion Week, just days after Lavigne’s surprising split from fiancé Mod Sun. Jenna Ortega has been getting recognition in the spotlight. The actress is set to star in the newest installment of “Scream” this weekend and is preparing to comeback to her breakthrough role in Netflix series “Wednesday”. She is also returning as producer. Ortega said on a recent episode of the “Armchair Expert” podcast that many of the original “Wednesday” scripts made no sense to her from a character perspective, so much so that she went ahead and changed dialogue without consulting the film’s writers. “When I first signed onto the show, I didn’t have all the scripts," Ortega said. "I thought it was going to be a lot darker. It wasn’t, I didn’t know what the tone was, or what the score would sound like.” Making his directorial debut, actor Michael B. Jordan stars in “Creed III” which was released in theaters last weekend. “Creed III” follows Adonis Creed, played by Jordan, who has been thriving in both his career and family life, but when a childhood friend and former boxing prodigy resurfaces, the face-off is more than just a fight. The film has already garnered attention and many people went to the movies to watch the third film of the trilogy. The franchise earned $100 million during its global opening weekend and set numerous records, making it the top opening for the Creed franchise and biggest sports film opening ever and a knockout victory for MGM.

In the first installment of the Daily Forty-Niner's OUTober Special Podcast Episodes, guest host Noah Garcia discusses Netflix's LGBTQ+ coming-of-age series Heartstopper.
Adapted from Alice Oseman's graphic novel of the same name, Heartstopper explores themes of teenhood, young love, and coming into one's own. The series follows teens Charlie and Nick, whose opposite personalities make for a heartwarming friendship and potential romance.
Heartstopper's humor and light-hearted drama presents queer teenhood through a positive lens. This depiction is a refreshing change for television and film, which often presents queer experiences in relation to pain and trauma.
Heartstopper's first season is available on Netflix now, and the series has been renewed for a second season.
Look out for the release of more OUTober Special Podcast Episodes throughout October!

In Season 9: Episode 9 of Beach Weekly, we are looking at major headlines from across Long Beach and Southern California.
Last Friday, U.S. President Joe Biden visited Southern California and spoke at Irvine Valley College. Biden advocated for lower prescription drug costs, recognized the ongoing social protests in Iran, and endorsed U.S. Representative Katie Porter in her run for re-election in CA's 45th congressional district.
Ron Herrera, the president of the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor, resigned last Monday after he was recorded on tape having a conversation with other LA City Council members that included racist remarks. Herrera's resignation followed that of Nury Martinez, former president of the LA City Council who was also heard on the tape.
Last weekend, there was a small oil spill off the coast near Alamitos Beach in Long Beach. The U.S. Coast Guard and Long Beach Fire Department said the spill had dissipated, but that they will continue to monitor the area. Last Thursday, at least three cases of the avian flu were confirmed near El Dorado Park in Long Beach. While transmission of the virus to humans or other animals is rare, Long Beach health officials recommend avoiding contact with any wild birds.
COVID-19-related hospitalizations are continuing to decline in LA County. However, public health officials are encouraging residents to receive the newest COVID-19 booster shot in an effort to ward off a potential surge in cases over the fall and winter months.
Last Saturday, a person was arrested in Whittier for suspicion of driving under the influence on horseback. The person initially refused to pull over, though after a short pursuit by police the person surrendered and was charged. The horse was taken care of by officers at a Whittier police station.
Elon Musk announced last Saturday that his company, SpaceX, will continue to fund the Starlink satellite program. The announcement came days after Musk threatened to cut funding for the program, which has been integral in maintaining Ukraine's communication network during its ongoing war with Russia.
In Russia last Saturday, two gunmen killed 11 people and injured 15 others who had volunteered to fight for Russia in its war against Ukraine. The shooting took place at a firearms training session, and is one of multiple mass shootings to take place in Russia in protest of President Vladimir Putin's call-up of 300,000 citizens to fight in the war.

In Season 9: Episode 8 of Beach Weekly, we are looking at the biggest headlines on the Long Beach State's and from around the world.
The Muslim Student Association at Long Beach state is seeing growth in its membership, being just one example of how young American Muslims are one of the fastest growing populations in the U.S. However, leaders of the Muslim Student Association noted that despite the growth of their organization, they continue to feel judgement and discrimination from others.
Former Daily Forty-Niner journalist, Pablo Unzueta, won a $90,000 settlement from the LA County Sheriff’s Department last week. Unzueta filed the lawsuit in September 2020, after being arrested while photographing the protest of a Black man who was killed by Los Angeles law enforcement in August 2020. In the lawsuit, Unzueta accused LASD of illegal arrest, strip searching, illegal confiscation of property as well as an illegal search of his devices.
The city of Long Beach’s new Housing Element will be marketed to Long Beach State students, specifically with 13,000 apartment units designated as affordable housing. However, the Element has yet to announce a specific plan to support students. Currently, Long Beach State provides limited on- and off-campus housing options, but only enough to accommodate 1,372 of its almost 40,000 students.
The family of Los Angeles Police Department officer Houston Tipping is claiming that he was targeted and killed after filing a report that accused four other officers of sexually assaulting a woman. Tipping died during a training exercise last spring, and LAPD's internal investigation ruled his death an accident. However, Tipping's family is claiming he was beaten and killed, and plans to sue LAPD.
CA Governor Gavin Newsom signed an array of new bills into law last week, all of which will take effect on Jan. 1. The bills seek to protect reproductive rights, close the gender pay gap, combat climate change, address the state's housing crisis, and more.
Elon Musk seems set to buy Twitter after all. After a back-and-forth series of legal proceedings between Musk and Twitter's executive board, Musk announced on Oct. 3 that he will buy the social network after previously going back on the deal.

On Sept. 28, Long Beach State Fine Arts students staged their second protest of building conditions and a continued lack of air conditioning.

The protestors gathered outside of President Conoley's office, and presented President Conoley and her staff with a list of demands, including for a new multicultural center building.
The Outpost Grill reopened on Sept. 27 after briefly shutting down for water heating issues. The reopening came as a relief to Long Beach State students who continue to have limited on-campus dining options.

Health officials are warning that flu season could be bad this winter, sparking concerns of a "twindemic": a surge in COVID-19 cases and rampant flu cases.

In an email sent out last Monday, Long Beach State President Jane Close Conoley announced that the university has officially lifted its in-class mask requirement. Masks are now strongly recommended in indoor campus settings, but will not be enforced. Beach community members are asked to continue self-monitoring for COVID-19 related symptoms, and to respect the choice of students and staff members who continue to wear facial coverings.
President Conoley received a 28% salary raise from the California State University Board of Trustees. Her raise starkly contrasts hat of faculty members, who received a 3% this year. Long Beach State faculty members and students are expressing their discontent with President Conoley's raise, and are raising questions about the allocation of university funds. We spoke to the Daily Forty-Niner's News Assistant, Vincent Medina, for more on the story.

In Season 9: Episode 4 of Beach Weekly, we are taking a look at how recent weather events are impacting Long Beach State students, on-campus mask policies, and the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Southern California's record-breaking heatwave continued through last week, with temperatures reaching nearly 100 degrees on Long Beach State's campus. While all students are being affected by the extreme weather, Fine Arts students are experiencing it worse than most others. Buildings within the Fine Arts Department have lacked air conditioning since their construction in the 1950s, and Long Beach State has not attempted to improve building conditions amidst the recent heatwave.
On Wednesday, Fine Arts students and faculty members staged a walkout of classes to protest the building conditions and demand action from the university. Daily Forty-Niner News Editor Hannah Shields provides more coverage of the walk-out and where the situation stands now for the Fine Arts Department.
Tropical Storm Kay hit Southern California on Friday afternoon after traveling north along the coast from Baja California. Though initially categorized as a hurricane, Kay was downgraded to a tropical storm upon hitting California. An extremely rare occurrence, the storm brought rain, high winds, surf warnings, and slight flood damage in some areas.
While many Long Beach State students and faculty members expected the in-class mask requirement to be lifted by now, the university has not mentioned any plans to do so. Mixed opinions are held about the policy, as mask-wearing is not required in many settings on campus and because Los Angeles County has not enforced indoor masking in most settings for several months. Long Beach State has not mentioned any plans of listing the mask policy for in-class settings.
Queen Elizabeth II died last Thursday at the age of 96, after serving as Great Britain's monarch for more than 70 years. Though Queen Elizabeth worked to modernize British society and has seen the monarchy through the progress and turbulence of the last near-century, her legacy is laced with the reality of Britain's history of colonization and violent oppression of numerous Asian, African, Caribbean, and South American countries. Following Queen Elizabeth’s death, her son, Charles, has now been crowned King Charles III.

In Season 9: Episode 3 of Beach Weekly, we are covering major state-wide topics and the return of two favorite Long Beach events.
Southern California is now in its second full week of the largest heatwave of 2022. Though it is believed that the peak of the heatwave was experienced over Labor Day weekend, high temperatures will continue to be felt this week. Long Beach and Los Angeles will see temperatures into the 90s, while the Inland Empire is expected to see temperatures as high as 115 degrees.
The heatwave has brought forth a slew of additional concerns across California. The Route Fire is continuing to rage near Castaic Lake, and has threatened neighborhoods and burned more than 5,000 acres of land. Rolling blackouts for the entire state may be looming in an effort by the California Independent System Operator to prevent the overtaxing of the state electrical grid. The state has been sending "Flex Alerts" to its residents' mobile devices to stress energy conservation in an effort to such prevent blackouts. At Long Beach State, the extreme heat has prompted some students to voice their concerns over insufficient air ventiliation on some parts of campus.
Last Thursday, Sep. 2, the California Legislature passed bipartisan bill AB 2273 in an ettempt to protect the data privacy of minors online. The bill is the first of its kind in the nation, and is designed to regulate how social media and online platforms use data accumulted from users under the age of 18. AB 2273 is now being considered by Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has until Sep. 30 to veto the bill or sign it into law.
Long Beach State's annual festival, Smorgasport, is being held for the first time in two years. The event is for Long Beach State students only, who only need to show their student identification cards and sign a waiver to enter.

In the last episode for the month of April, host Sebastian Perez explains the meaning behind Max Liborion's book "Pollution is Colonialism". In the book Liborion describes how capitalism, colonialism and environmental science conspire to further damage the Earth.
In the process Indigenous land is harmed, destroyed and the rights of First Nation people everywhere are also violated. This book itself serves as an ethical guide for those who wish to undo some of the harm of colonialism as well as for scientists who wish to contribute to the liberation of both Indigenous peoples and the environment.

In this episode, guest host Isabel Silagy discusses Amanda Gorman’s latest body of work, Call Us What We Carry, in celebration of National Poetry Month. Gorman, who performed at Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration, is widely considered to be the poetic voice of her generation. With this latest collection of her poems, it is easy to see why.
Call Us What We Carry conveys both grief for the past, specifically in the last two years of the coronavirus pandemic, and hope for the future. Gorman uses her emotive prose to capture the attention and heart of her readers, and Call Us What We Carry has cemented her as a force in the literary world for many years to come.
To celebrate National Poetry Month or simply a love of books, be sure to check out the Los Angeles Times’ Festival of Books on Saturday, April 23–Sunday, April 24. Held on the University of Southern California campus, the festival will host a series of interactive panels with exciting guests, including Gorman herself.

For this episode, guest host Leila Nunez discusses and reads a passage of Silent Spring by Rachel Carson. This controversial book quickly became a best-seller among readers when it was published in 1962. Many credit it to be the catalyst for the environmental movement.
Rachel Carson was born in 1907 in Springdale, Pennsylvania and grew up with a deep connection to the nature around her. A writer and marine biologist, she wrote many pieces on conservation and the environment during her time as Editor-in-Chief of all publications for the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and later resigned to focus more on her writing.
In the book, Carson calls into question the current agricultural practices at the time which used a now illegal pesticide, DDT. DDT was harmful not only to pests, but also to humans and wildlife. Carson calls for change from the government and from all mankind to make a difference. Many of what is argued in the book is still relevant today, which is why Silent Spring is still a fundamental book of the environmental movement.

In this series, Daily Forty-Niner staff will introduce a variety of books that are written by female authors in celebration of Women’s History Month.
For this episode, Isabel Silagy, community engagement editor at Daily Forty-drNiner, dives into "Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood and the significance of the book and how prevalent it is to today.
Originally published in 1985, "The Handmaid's Tale" is set in dystopian New England which is ruled by an oppressive Christian regime which forces women to live under their rule. Women no longer have jobs money or independence and are forced to be wives, housekeepers and handmaids. Handmaids are fertile women who are assigned to families of powerful men in government and are forced to carry children for families unable to conceive.
This book is an award winning book but is at the center of controversy and has been banned for graphic content and the critique of Christianity. This story is similar to the period America is in where women's rights and voices are being stripped all in the name of governmental control.
This book is available currently at the University Library and can be purchased on Amazon as well.
This special series will continue throughout the month of March and new episodes will drop every Tuesday.
