Inside IV: Isla Vista Youth Speak Up

Cheryl Trosky, Colleen Estrada and Mary Hudson (mother of pop superstar Katy Perry) join Josh Molina in the latest episode of Santa Barbara Talks to talk about their candidacies for the Santa Barbara County Republican Party. 
The three are part of a slate looking to bring more leadership and transparency to the Republican Central Committee. 
They have started a website called www.unite2winsb.com. Trosky is running for re-election in District 1. Estrada is running for re-election in District 3. Hudson is looking to join the committee in District 1. 
In this podcast, the candidates talk about their plans to find new Republican candidates for seats, build the organization and develop strategies to become more politically relevant. They also discuss the candidacy of Frank Troise in the Third District, and their concerns with the process for how he was selected. They outline their vision for the committee, their plan for bringing Republicans from out "behind the bushes," and the ways they intend to make the party more visible to build power in Santa Barbara County.

Dr. Charity Dean, one of the country's foremost experts on battling the COVID-19 pandemic, talks with Josh Molina in this one hour-plus podcast conversation. Dr. Dean is the former assistant director of the California Department of Public Health, and the former Santa Barbara County Public Health Officer. Dr. Dean talks about the importance of COVID-19 testing, the country's failed response to the pandemic and how by February 2020 it was "game over."  Dr. Dean explains what the country has learned -- and has not -- since the 1918 influenza pandemic. Dr. Dean also talks about how the public health system and the health care delivery system work in silos, and what needs to happen before schools can re-open. Most of all, Dr. Dean explains how human beings need to work together to overcome this pandemic and own our individual mitigation roles through social distancing and wearing masks.
