Call It What You Will Salinas


Welcome to Call It What You Will.  This is a show that focuses on politics and social issues here in Salinas and our neighboring communities.  We aim to provide interviews that give listeners a more in-depth perspective on local leaders in government and the community.  We are not limited by the word count of a newspaper article or the time constraints of a tv news report.  We are simply some people sitting at a table having a conversation that we hope you find interesting and most of all, informative.  

Our show usually has two formats.  When we have a guest, our show focuses on having those conversations that we hope bring you a better understanding of the politics and social issues of our community.  When we don't have a guest, we tend to just sit around the table and have those random conversations about politics that happen when one sits at a bar sharing a few drinks with friends.

Hundreds came out to Window on the Bay in Monterey to show their support for the Muslim-American community and protest the Muslim immigration ban.  The event, organized by local groups, Monterey County Nonviolent Action Committee and Solidarity Against Hate.  Listen in to what people have to say at this show of solidarity in our community.  We speak to people young and old, and hear what they have to say about the hatred Muslim-Americans are facing in their community.  We ran into State Senator Bill Monning and we get his thoughts on the importance of contacting your elected officials to make your views heard.  As always, this is a learning experience and we battled the wind that affected the quality of the audio.  We have wind socks on order to help alleviate this problem the next time we are out in the community.
