The Bay Podcast Airs on
KQED Public Radio
Hosted by Ericka Cruz Guevara, The Bay is KQED’s news podcast
about what’s really going on in our community. With help from Bay
Area reporters, community leaders and neighbors, The Bay shows
you the messy and resilient culture of this place we call home.
As part of KQED’s ongoing commitment to share our buzzworthy
podcast efforts with radio listeners, The Bay is headed to
KQED 88.5 FM for a radio special. Tune in for a broadcast date
and time, which will be announced soon.
Previous radio specials have seen KQED podcasts Rightnowish,
Bay Curious and MindShift feature some of their best stories
for Bay Area listeners. Rightnowish brought its “Big Love” series
on air, while Bay Curious explored the history of the Donner Party,
for example.
You can also subscribe to The Bay’s twice-weekly podcasts via
Spotify, Apple Podcasts or your favorite platforms.
PODCASTS
What are the best podcasts to listen to right now?
We asked Sophie Kim, KQED’s Editorial + Production Assistant. Here are her picks.
STARTER EPISODE
“One Year After Atlanta Spa Shootings, More Disturbing Reports of
Anti-Asian Hate”
The format of KQED’s Forum podcast is great, especially because listeners get to engage in
meaningful conversation on a live show. In this episode, host Mina Kim talks with other
Asian Americans about their thoughts and feelings on the anniversary of the tragic hate crime.
STARTER EPISODE
“Eunice Chang aka @notcheetos — Fun With Dumb — Episode 161”
Fun With Dumb is a weekly podcast hosted by Korean American rapper Dumbfoundead — aka
Jonathan Park — that showcases people from all walks of life. In this episode, Dumbfoundead
and friends Steffie and Lyricks talk with Eunice Chang, a 28-year-old Korean American female
skateboarder, about community, mindset and dealing with haters.
KQ E D . O R G • M AY 2 0 2 2
STARTER EPISODE
“Fear”
Markis, Hannah, Devonte, Abigail, Jeremiah and Sierra — Black children ages 12 to 19 — were
adopted by white lesbian couple Sarah and Jennifer Hart. On March 26, 2018, the family’s GMC
Yukon was found belly-up below California’s Highway 1. Broken Harts investigates the blended
family and what led to their murder-suicide.

The Hour
Don’t miss this Emmy award-winning and Golden Globe-
nominated drama and espionage thriller that delves into
the high-stakes world of television news. With the Suez
Crisis brewing in the background, a small team of British
journalists launches an hour-long investigative news
show on British television called The Hour. Ben Whishaw
(Spectre), Romola Garai (Emma) and Dominic West
(The Affair) headline an all-star cast that includes Anna
Chancellor (Ordeal by Innocence), Peter Capaldi (Doctor
Who) and Oona Chaplin (Game of Thrones). It is truly
fun television that begs for bingeing so I’m excited that
that Passport members get access to the whole series
starting May 1 (broadcast viewers will be able to catch
The Hour starting May 10 on KQED Plus).
