Two friends walk into a bar...there's a giant disco ball spinning in the distance, made by the artist who created the studio 54 disco ball. One friends puts a drink in the other's hand. They sniff it, it's kind of mousy. They notice the glass--it's a mouse's face. They float to the dance floor, and can't help doing a little dance. "What's in this wine?" the friend asks the other. He says something French the other can't decipher, starts talking about the region, the method of fermentation. All information over the sipper's head, who nods intently, masking their confusion. They cheers and do their little dancey dance. This, is Bar Part Time on 14th and Guerrero in San Francisco, the heart of the post-pandemic renaissance.

Was it just me or was this Labor Day extra necessary for our sanity? Did you know that less work actually is good for the climate? Host Jackie Fielder talks with economist Mark Paul (@MarkVinPaul) about the four day work week, social housing, and other features of a Green New Deal. #ReclaimingOurTime

How does power get to our homes here in San Francisco? What would it take--how much money--to take over PG&E? Why might a public takeover of PG&E by the city of San Francisco actually spell inequity and not necessarily help us meet our climate goals? What are the successful examples of public take overs (municipalization) and what have been the benefits?
Host Jackie Fielder asks all these and more of Josh Lappen (@jlappen1), environmental, energy, and electrification PhD candidate at Oxford, based in San Francisco, who wrote an Op-Ed in SF Gate in August 2021 titled San Francisco's misguided climate fight with PG&E

Shaina Nanavati is a research organizer for Reclaim Our Power, the Utility Justice campaign that is mobilizing to demand a transformation of our energy system in California, taking on Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). Host Jackie Fielder asks how PG&E caused the 2017 and 2018 fires, whether wildfire victims have been adequately compensated (spoiler: no), and what a just alternative to (potentialy a takeover of) PG&E looks like. In fact, a solution may already be seeded in a not-for-profit public benefit corporation called Golden State Energy.

Tiffany Cabán (@tiffany_caban) is a 33-year-old queer Latina who won the Democratic primary for New York City Council. Tiffany’s revolutionary run for Queens District Attorney in 2019 radically changed how we talk about criminal legal system reform at the local level, both in New York and across the United States. She ran against the machine and challenged the status quo, helping to catalyze the growing movement for decarceral DAs across the country. Now, she’s bringing the democratic socialist revolution to the NYC Council, as she runs to represent Council District 22, which includes Astoria, Rikers Island, and parts of Jackson Heights, Woodside, and East Elmhurst.
Jackie and Tiffany talk about defunding the police, closing jails, environmental racism, a Green New Deal for NYC, and organizing within constituent services.

The gates of hell have opened in the Gulf of Mexico. Texas froze over last February. What does democracy have to do with all of this?
Ali Lozano--a Texas voting rights expert--and Jackie Fielder, a recovering politician and sometimes podcast host in California discuss.
Jackie visits Ali Lozano, voting rights expert and girlfriend, in Houston. They talk about voting and the different planets of the California and Texas Legislature after reading "A Tale of 2 States" in The Nation. 🏳️🌈
On May 6, 2021, Labor, climate justice activists, transportation justice advocates, and Democratic Socialists came together in San Francisco to rally and demand that the Metropolitan Transportation Commission unleash $1.4 billion of federal funding to restore transportation services around the Bay Area. Transportation represents 40% of California's emissions. If we want any shot at meeting our state's climate goals by 2030, public transportation post-pandemic needs to be free, fast, and seamless so that more people get out of their cars and rideshares and into buses and railway.
Chris Arvin (@chrisarvinsf) is a designer, transit lover, and SFMTA CAC member. You may have seen his cute bus stickers on twitter. In other words, he advocates for us San Franciscans to have free, fast, and seamless transit so we don't have to pinch our noses and use Lft or Ubr. He also advocates to make sure the workers getting us from point A to point B around the city are appreciated with living wages and worker protections.

Dylan Ayaloo initially found yoga in his quest for balance from the daily grind of a fast-paced corporate career. He realized that yoga not only helped to heal his body of old injuries sustained from training towards the 2000 Olympic games, but also centered his mind and spirit. Years and years later, Daybreak Podcast host and recuperating politician Jackie Fielder found Dylan while scrolling on TikTok one pandemic night on her quest for dog videos, mukbangs, and self-improvement tips. After seeing his motivational speeches on love and fulfillment, she realized she had to take Dylan's 10-day meditation challenge (whether she finished the full 10 days is a different story) and participate in one of his AWAKEN workshops. The rest, is history.

"Eviction moratoriA" is actually the plural for "eviction moratorium." It's Leviooosa not LevioSA. In this episode, we learn a lot of words from Eviction Defense Collaborative (the tenants Ocean's Eleven) staff attorneys Katie Sass (@katiesassy) and Jacque Patton (@jacquepatton) whose goodwordusage you definitely want on your side when facing the big bad grumpy eviction machine. Bring a pen and paper and a sandwich to this episode because we got lots to chew on between law schools and their corporate career pathways, redlining, California's weak eviction moratoriA, San Francisco's universal right to counsel, the wayward incentives and money drain of some (not all) non-profit "supportive" housing organizations, what an eviction even is (lots of paper work), and The Affordable Housing Crisis.™

Preston discuss social housing, homelessness, public housing, conservative online backlash, and Preston's family history stemming back to the Holocaust.

Jon Monfred (@jonnymon_), quar bud and comrade of Daybreak host Jackie Fielder, breaks down the GameStop short, the recall campaign against Governor Gavin Newsom, and his encounter with Newsom getting off of a plane two years ago. Jackie recalls her escapades in the banking world, including going undercover at not one, but two annual shareholder meetings of two major Wall Street banks.
The Jackie Fielder for State Senate campaign was never about just one person. It wasn't even about just one state senate seat. All of us who pitched into this movement knew that win or lose, this was the beginning of something California had never seen before. The movement continues with Culver City Vice Mayor Daniel Wayne Lee (@danielwaynelee0), a veteran, activist, organizer, social worker, and candidate for California State Senate District 30. He became the first African-American member of the Culver City council in its over 100 year history in 2018 and is also a doctoral candidate at USC.

In this episode, Jackie confesses she's not actually raised in Long Beach, just born there. In fact, Jackie was raised in nearby Lakewood, CA, an L.A. suburb known to some locals as Fakewood, also known officially at one point as California's #1 Most Boring City. Just north of Lakewood sits the slightly more spicy town of Paramount. One score and some years ago, a young Capricorn by the name of Jupiter Peraza arrived from Mexico in the town of Paramount. At the time, she was a student learning English as best she could. Captured by critically acclaimed pictures such as That's So Raven and Princess Diaries, Jupiter soon developed dreams of living in the city by the Bay with the trollies and hills. To do that, she would have to study hard in her second language, survive a high school of more than 4,000 students, fend off a vampire boyfriend, and slay the dragon of DACA college bureaucracy. Jupiter not only made her own dreams come true, but decided to give back to her communities and become a warrior and community organizer for social justice, voter rights, Trans rights, and immigration justice. Not to mention helping flip the Senate in Georgia just a couple weeks ago. NBD.
Follow Jupiter's journey, wish her a happy birthday, and thank her for canvassing in Georgia to help flip the senate on Instagram (@jup500) and Venmo (@jup-peraza)

While white supremacists threaten to storm the Capitol once again, San Francisco Supervisors are getting back to work to tackle the mess 2020 left us. Supervisor Matt Haney (@matthaneysf) has been a fierce advocate for renters rights, holistic solutions to homelessness, mental health, and mass incarceration, and one of the most vocal critics of corruption that has plagued San Francisco's Department of Public Works (DPW). Voters overwhelmingly passed both of Haney's ballot measures in November 2020--an excessive CEO tax and a measure to bring more oversight and transparency to DPW. Jackie Fielder and Supervisor Haney talk COVID vaccine distribution, the status of San Francisco's Shelter-In-Place (SIP) hotels program, corruption, his excessive CEO tax, his proposed nightlife recovery fund, and his new twin cats that have really upped his Insta game.

Thirty-eight years ago on January 1st, 1983, doctors opened Ward 86 at San Francisco General Hospital, the first dedicated HIV clinic in the country. San Francisco, LGBTQ politics, and science has changed dramatically since 1983 thanks to activists, advocates, doctors, and HIV/AIDS survivors, but HIV survivors remain undersupported. On September 18, 2020, during the Coronavirus pandemic, a group of HIV long-term survivors and advocates released the San Francisco Principles 2020, a statement outlining the challenges of aging with HIV and the need for better care and more representation, demanding “Nothing About Us Without Us.” Jackie Fielder discusses the intersection of affordable housing, tenants rights, homelessness, and health justice with Michael Rouppet, who has faced HIV, eviction, and homelessness, and has been a board member director of Marty’s Place Affordable Housing Corporation, a housing counselor, sex health educator, transcendental meditator, and board member of the San Francisco Community Land Trust.

Someone has opened a campaign committee for California State Senate 2024; after a social media lobbying campaign, President-elect Joe Biden has nominated Rep. Deb Haaland to be our next Secretary of the Department of Interior; the left is aflame with #ForcetheVote on Medicare for All; California environmental justice organizers successfully lobbied Biden to nominate someone else to head the EPA; FEMA has promised to fund San Francisco's Shelter-in-Place (SIP) hotel program for the unhoused; San Francisco will finally start housing the poor on the tab of mega corporations; you're worth $600 in the eyes of Congress; and 2020 was a good year for women rappers.

Austerity measures and politics threaten San Francisco’s Shelter-in-Place hotel program for more than 2,400 homeless people. Biden is filling his cabinet with tech executives. California Governor Gavin Newsom has the power to appoint a number of new elected officials to fulfill the empty seats of Senator Kamala Harris and Attorney General Xavier Becerra. California faces an eviction tsunami with the current botched moratorium in place. It’s all a little much to think about during these times, but to chew on these and other developments, Jackie Fielder brings on her close friend Sabel Rose Regalia, Supervisor Matt Haney, and Coalition on Homelessness policy/social media manager Keegan Medrano.

In the inaugural episode of Daybreak Podcast, Jackie Fielder and her campaign director Roisin Isner share the story of Jackie's 2020 campaign for California State Senate, District 11 (San Francisco, San Mateo County). Jackie ran without the support of corporations, billionaires, police unions, and all the other special interests standing in the way of progress. Of course, being a Coronavirus campaign, they had all the challenges one could imagine. They discuss going from zero to one hundred, making a surprising showing in the March 2020 primary, and the not-enough-but-still-something result of 191,060 votes in the November 2020 general election.
