KOCT has produced a number of new, interesting North County
focused programs since our last blog.
We now produce, twice per month, a topical program, North
County Roundtable. A new show is produced on the 1st and 3rd
Friday of every month and at 6 pm and 9 pm on KOCT’s channel 18. Our Feb. 16th program had a
diverse group of interviewees starting with an exploration of the legalization of
marijuana.
Host Alison St. John interviewed Dallin Young, the Executive
Director for the Association of Cannabis Professionals.
Our second guest was Neil Nagata, the President of the San
Diego Farm Bureau and Nagata Brothers who discussed their opposition to the
proposed SOAR initiative (Save Open space and Agricultural Resources)
Our last guest covered all things political in North County
including the recent wave of District based elections. Tom Shepard, President
of Tom Shepard and Associates had a far ranging discussion about the upcoming
primaries, 76th Assembly and the 49th Congressional race.
Speaking of politics: A most unusual council meeting occurred
on January 24th in which the City Council selected former City
Manager, Peter Weis to be the Mayor after the resignation of Mayor Wood due to
illness. Watch it by clicking Jan.
