It’s been a while. So honored to have interviewed @rbreich.bsky.social re: The Last Class doc that followed his final semester at @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social and his civic lesson for us all. Thrilled it’s become a sleeper hit and hoping it earns Oscar nom! abc7news.com/post/former-...

@stanfordmedicine.bsky.social Dr. Bryant Lin turns terminal cancer diagnosis into life-changing lesson for students, world @kristensze.bsky.social abc7.com/post/stanfor...

My fascinating convo with @jonc101.bsky.social ! abc7news.com/post/artific...

So much fun cohosting the SF Chinese New Year Parade tonight! I marched in it as a teen, so it’s a full circle moment!

I so appreciate the thoughtful insight of Fmr SFO spokesman and naval reservist Mike McCarron on the unbelievable plane crash in DC. abc7news.com/post/dc-plan...

I’ve been super excited to be cohosting the broadcast! I marched in the parade as a teenager, and now I get to announce it and share it with everyone!

Yay! 🐍🧨🧧

Happy MLK Day!

Spoke to @kristensze.bsky.social about Trump’s NIH Director nominee, Stanford colleague Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. In 2020, I had debated Dr. Kulldorff (co-author of Great Barrington Declaration) on Democracy Now regarding Covid19 policy. (Video truncated here due to 1 min limit)

Kristen Sze @kristensze.bsky.social asked me how I am feeling about bird flu overall right now… What the public may not realize is that this response is even more complicated than #covid19 was — I say that as someone who worked on Massachusetts’ state response in 2020 #H5N1

Looking forward to interviewing the great Dr. Lucy Jones at 3:11pm about today’s NorCal #earthquake on @abc7news.bsky.social. Join us live: abc7news.com/watch/live/

Just got done with 3 hrs of live continuous #earthquake coverage. Relieved #tsunami didn’t materialize in CA. Need 🍕stat!

What conditions set the stage for a democratically elected president to declare martial law like we saw in South Korea? Under what pretext? And what’s the lesson for us in the US? I talked with former DOD Kayla Orta with @wilsoncenter.org #southkorea #democracy #martiallaw

Spoke with Kristen Sze ABC7 News on several health headlines, including #mpox, #H5N1 and Trump’s NIH nominee Stanford’s Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. @kristensze.bsky.social abc7news.com/15596392/

PSA. Don’t make the mistake I made watching #Wicked in a non- Dolby theater. I saw it in a Screen X theater, the sound was tiny and came only from the front. The 270 wrap around screen was distracting. Choose your theater carefully. I will try both Dolby and IMAX next. Suggestions welcome!

Happy Thanksgiving! We can’t be friends if you think it’s weird to: 1. Prefer turkey skin over the meat 2. Enjoy gravy on rice & hate mashed potatoes 3. Eat pie for appetizer 🦃🥧#happythanksgiving

Dug up from the archive my Oct 2020 interview with Trump’s NIH director pick, Stanford Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, on his reasons for opposing COVID lockdowns pre-vaccine. Thoughts?

This man was right on the money assuring me I would 100% see no 🌧️, only ☀️, during #TheBigGame 🏈🪓 in Berkeley. Apple weather app was showing showers 12-1pm. Thank you Drew! Thank you football gods! #Cal #GoBears 🐻

Understanding how transmission occurred is necessary for prevention. Sometimes it may be a very rare pathway that may not occur again & is never elucidated (“freak accident”) but it could also be something we aren’t thinking of with higher risk of recurrence. #H5N1

You did warn us in our @abc7news.bsky.social interview! No raw milk for me. Thanks. #health #H5N1

Interesting explanation of the 3-way chess between Newsom/Trump/Musk. Dr. Steven Weissman of @ucberkeleylaw.bsky.social explains why CA is talking about leave Tesla out of a revived state #EV tax credit. #cleanenergy

Absolutely LOVED #Wicked! It’s always been my fave musical w/its soul-stirring songs & brilliant allegory, but told through film by @jonmchu.bsky.social, the characters’ back stories and growth are even richer/more fulfilling. I ugly cried during Gelphie dance scene. Oh see it in a Dolby Theater!💚

That winning glow #CalWins #BigGame @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social

Good morning! The reward we get after enduring the storm! 🌈

I wish everyone could consider the words of this Bay Area athletic director after fans of one local high school girls volleyball team repeatedly booed a #transgender player on the opposing team. This after the school cancelled an earlier game citing the trans player. #lgbtq #schoolsports

I’ll consider this a pinky promise! 😉

Who’s with me? #biggame #gobears #beatstanford #bearterritory #cal #calfootball

We def need to explore different ways to boost voter engagement and fight apathy.

Bay Area Congressman Mark DeSaulnier sits on the House Ethics Committee. I asked him about Matt Gaetz’s withdrawal from AG consideration.

Matt Gaetz may have withdrawn from AG consideration, but many questions remain. I’m interviewing Bay Area Rep Mark DeSaulnier, who’s on the House Ethics Comm, live 11:30am on @abc7news.bsky.social. Watch: abc7news.com/watch/undefi...

@georgetakei.bsky.social I picked up your graphic novel, They Called Us Enemy, last night. You wished me Peace and Happiness when you signed it in 2019. Today, I’m reminded those are things we have to continuously work for, remembering the lessons from our history. Thank you, George!

It blows my mind discovering it’s coincidence and so perfect that @bsky.app CEO Jay Graber’s Chinese name is Lan Tian, which means Blue Sky! Jack Dorsey named the company before @jay.bsky.team joined. Talk about meant to be! futurism.com/the-byte/ceo...

Why does 50 degrees feel soooo cold in #SF? Seriously needed toe warmer packs just to shoot promos for our live broadcast of the SF Chinese New Year Parade. 🤣🥶🧨🧧

How’s this as a potential adjustment to the way candidate races are presented on the ballot? “Of these choices, who would you prefer to operate on you or fly your airplane”?

SF is a sanctuary city. And Trump has promised mass deportations from day one. I asked #SF Mayor-elect @daniellurie.bsky.social today how he plans to handle the potential showdown in his first Bay Area TV interview since being elected. #immigration #politics

Enjoyed season 2 of The Diplomat, even if it’s a little predictable. Can’t wait to see Allison Janney’s President Penn in season 3!

My fave story we did this week had me rethinking those pesky raccoons ripping up my lawn. @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social urban ecologists are studying their risk-reward assessment & how it’s influenced by resources in their environment. 🦝😲#theyrejustlikeus #research

This is great! Bob Myers is smart, thoughtful and helped make the @warriors.bsky.social a high caliber organization. He’ll definitely be an asset to the UC system! #highered #nba #california

@nutfreewok.bsky.social you can see how many times I’ve made your red cooked pork belly recipe! So easy for working parents. Just throw it all in the instant pot and come home to deliciousness!

Not to be all promotional but since I’m trying understand this new thing Bluesky I just joined, I’m doing a live interview with @abraralheeti.bsky.social. If you wanna learn w/me, join at 3:10pm ish. 😉 abc7news.com/watch/live/

Feels like 2009. Walking into a new space ready to discover real people to converse with! 🤞🙏
