Host David Smith tackles the Point Reyes National Seashore controversy: a $30M settlement to phase out long-standing dairy and most beef operations in favor of expanded elk rewilding—and the community turmoil it’s sparked. Dave and co-host riff on whether this is conservation or eviction, what rewilding really means on crowded roads and fragile watersheds, and how policy, philanthropy, and PR shape who gets to live and work on the land.

The conversation zooms out to the culture war around Agenda 21/“15-minute cities”, digital control, and pandemic-era policy overreach—asking hard questions about freedom of movement, rural livelihoods, and whether “green” plans sometimes sideline working families. It’s sharp, irreverent, and very Marin: dairies, elk, ribeye's, merch jokes, and a few bumper-sticker-ready lines you’ll be quoting all week.

Content note: satire, salty language, and political humor.
