Documentary: The Midnight Hour Records
Hosted by Lizi Escobar
Located in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, the local music community lives to see another day at The Midnight Hour Records shop. Independent owners Sergio and Alyssa Amalfitano opened up the brick-and-mortar music store last year during the COVID-19 pandemic and have remained a success.
There has been a decline in music stores and venues in the SFV, forcing many Valley residents to fulfill their musical needs elsewhere. The Midnight Hour Records is actively working to restore the Valley-based music community. Take a listen for a deeper understanding of how the shop has thrived throughout the pandemic!

Documentary: (Don’t) Kill The Poor
Hosted by Nicholas O’Neil
The homeless crisis in LA has reached a fever pitch; tents line the sidewalks as people have nowhere else to go, the city sweeps displace the homeless citizens, and even the architecture is being built to keep homeless people out. If you don’t have a home, the city and its residents don’t want you here.
(Don’t) Kill The Poor takes an in-depth look at the multi-pronged societal issue that is the homeless crisis, through the eyes of homeless San Fernando Valley resident Melvin Aguele. San Fernando Valley residents recount their perspectives on the homeless situation, and an expert weighs in on its societal implications.
