Sac City Council Races
Ballots are being mailed out to voters ahead of the June primary elections, covering everything from statewide races to multiple seats on the Sacramento City Council. Three councilmembers — for District 1, District 5 and District 7 — are facing challengers, while a fourth is running unopposed. CapRadio Local Government Reporter Riley Palmer joins Insight to talk about these races, and the ongoing issues that the council faces.

Comedian Paula Poundstone
For longtime public radio listeners the name Paula Poundstone will no doubt be familiar. Paula has been gracing CapRadio's airwaves as perhaps the most well-known panelist on “Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me” for almost as long as it's been running. And that is just the tip of the iceberg of a career that has seen her perform standup around the world and on late night TV from Carson to Colbert, and start a beloved podcast called “Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone.” Senior Producer Andrew Garcia sat down with the comedian ahead of her standup show in Sacramento this Thursday at the Crest Theater. |
