We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

For those in the know, it’s been a long road from where it began to where women’s professional basketball is today. The WNBA got its start in 1997, but it wasn’t the first women’s league. The women’s professional basketball league formed in 1978 with franchises across the country, even a team in San Francisco—the Pioneers. And at the same time the W was getting its start, the American Basketball League was working to get more women on the court, too. While the WBL and ABL didn’t last, their formation spoke of a craving to see women’s basketball teams compete and to see more women hoop. And now, the WNBA, almost 30 years later, is not only surviving—it’s thriving, reaching a golden hour of popularity, global attention, and the kind of popularity it's been seeking all along. KCBS reporters Mary Hughes and Holly Quan take a deep dive into the rise of women’s basketball on this edition of In Depth.…

Research shows that climate change isn’t just something that’s negatively affecting the planet, it’s having a deep impact on our mental health as well. Every new wildfire, every flash flood, every heatwave brings on another level of eco-anxiety in many people. A survey conducted by UNDP, Oxford University and GeoPoll, found that 56% of respondents think at least once a week about the problems caused by the climate situation and these feelings can be even stronger in younger people. Of course, it can feel overwhelming to see all that our environment is going through and wonder what can be done - or to have experienced an extreme weather event first-hand, to carry trauma from that and not know how to heal from it. It’s a big conversation and so we’re turning to Jennifer Silverstein, a licensed clinical social worker in Sonoma County, who is working to build resilient communities, especially for the youngest and most vulnerable members, that can face unfolding ecological crises.…

Back in 2017, three black trans women founded the Compton’s Transgender Cultural District in San Francisco - now more commonly known as The Transgender District. Its original name pulls upon the history of the first documented uprising of transgender and queer people in the country, the Compton’s Cafeteria Riots of 1966. Of course, the history of trans people in the Bay Area - in particular in San Francisco - runs deep, so much so that in 2021, advocates within the Transgender District got the month of August to be recognized as Transgender History Month in the city and county of San Francisco. Then California took that a step further last year, when the state assembly voted in favor of making Transgender History Month a statewide designation. The first full state recognized Transgender History Month is the August we are in right now. The legacy of trans people is what Andrea Horne is focused on and she’s this week’s guest on In Depth. Horne is a former actress, model, jazz singer - and she’s been a fixture in the trans community of San Francisco for over 40 years, working to support the black and brown transgender women in the Tenderloin. Horne is also a keeper of stories, of the histories of trans women of color that might otherwise be lost. Now, she’s turning her research into a book titled, "How Black Trans Women Changed the World."…

‘Everyone Watches Women’s Sports’ Those are the words on a shirt that you might have seen celebrities wearing when courtside at a WNBA game or while cheering during a goal made at a NWSL match.

The hope, of course, is that this will help to grow the leagues, the interest, the investment, so that the future of women’s sports will never be in doubt. And there are people right here in the Bay Area that are taking that declaration to heart - The Bay Area Women’s Sports Initiative has been doing the good work of supporting young women in the sports world for years, by engaging with the community, with the coaches and the teachers, and by encouraging girls to take up space on the field or the court.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta has released the 2023 Hate Crimes in California report. The report highlights a whole range of data, looking at hate crimes and hate-related events as reported to law enforcement - and at what communities are being most affected. And the findings aren’t too good for those in the LGBTQ+ community. While overall hate crimes saw a slight decline from 2022 to 2023 hate incidents, such as slurs being used, handing out hate material in public places continue to rise, up 86% from 2022. So, what does this mean for the LGBTQ+ community in California? Are things getting worse and why?

KCBS's Mary Hughes here... As I was growing up, baseball wasn’t really my game. I’ve always been more of a basketball person. But there are players that are so talented, so stunning in what they have done and accomplished, whose reach is so far beyond the sport that they play that their name is as known to the uninitiated as it is to the seasoned fan. Willie Mays is one of those names, one of the players, and that’s become even more evident this week as we mourn the loss of the Say Hey Kid - who passed away at the age of 93 on June 18th. Now, we could spend an entire In Depth episode talking about the highlights of Mays’s career. But I’d like to speak not just about what Mays made happen on the field, but about the life that he led and of who he was beyond the bat and the glove. To help me on this journey, we're joined by KCBS Radio’s own Morning Sports Anchor, Steven Langford, and former KCBS Radio Morning Sports anchor, Steve Bitker.…

We’ve all probably become a little numb to hearing it being said, but with every summer now comes the oppressive, sometimes unbearable heat. We’re feeling the start of it this year, with a few days of sweltering temperatures around the Bay Area, some places hitting into the triple digits. And while this heat wave is a short-lived one, many are bracing for the next one, and the next, and the next. So, what will the warmer months hold for us in California and around the rest of the western United States this year? And will the weather extremes we see become more frequent and worse as time goes by? To help us understand the here and now - and what may come - we turn to Daniel Swain, Climate Scientist at the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA and with the National Center for Atmospheric Research…

It’s a part of the passing of wintertime and moving into spring: you open up the windows or you step outside, and you hear them - birds singing. And perhaps you hear the sounds of the male western tanager, a songbird that migrates thousands of miles once the seasons begin to change, heading to the Mountain West for springtime. But maybe you’ve noticed, over the past few years, that spring seems to be arriving earlier than normal - flowers blooming, insects coming to life, sometimes months ahead of time. Birds are noticing these changes and researchers are, too. A recent study has looked at the effects of climate change on the seasons and found that by the time many migrating birds reach their destination, the food sources they search for have already bloomed or flown away. And so the consequences of spring starting sooner - for the western tanager and for many other migrating birds - could be drastic. To help us take a closer look at what we’re seeing in the world of migrating birds and how climate change is altering their world, I’m joined by Morgan Tingley, associate professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at UCLA.…

Being a sports fan and being a woman is not always the easiest road to walk. Although there have been countless teams to pull for, and an endless parade of superstars to be in awe of, for a lot of women that meant watching men, and only men play. Now that doesn't mean that women were not involved in sports. In the world of college basketball, women took to the court for the first intercollegiate women's basketball game, right here in the bay area. Stanford vs UC Berkeley in 1896, and around that same time in 1895, the British Lady’s Football Club played their first match in London. So the fact is, women have always been in the sports universe, but compared to their male counterparts, they've always been more in the shadows. But there has been progress along the way with more eyes turning to women's pro sports teams, and that turns us to 2023.

Just recently, an institutions of the Bay Area's LGBTQ+ world announced that it will be making a comeback. The Stud, an iconic queer bar in San Francisco, with an over 50 year long history, closed up shop in 2020 during the pandemic shutdown. Many feared that the venue itself would stay closed. But the collective who runs the bar have found a new location and are in the mist of raising funds now. This news has opened up a sense of hope for the queer spaces here in the Bay area, and beyond, wont just fade away. So why are queer spaces, and in particular queer bars, so important to hang on to? To answer this question and more, KCBS Radio's Mary Hughes spoke with Greggor Mattson, Professor and chair of sociology at Oberlin College and Conservatory, and author of 'Who Needs Gay Bars?'…

We're seeing a rise in overdose deaths in the Bay Area this year, and a lot of them are caused by fentanyl. This is a crisis that goes beyond California though, it's being been all over the country. Everyone from local to national leaders are committed to bringing this fentanyl epidemic to an end. The Biden administration announced on international overdose awareness day that its providing $450 million dollars in new funding to tackle this issue. But why has fentanyl taken over the drug landscape? what makes it so deadly, and what more can be done to combat its hold in our world? To help us take a closer look at this fentanyl crisis, KCBS Radio's Mary Hughes spoke with Dr. Chelsea Shover, assistant professor at the UCLA school of medicine and co-author of a 2020 study on fentanyl's spread to the West Coast.…

According to scientists with the national oceanic and atmospheric administration, this past July was the hottest the earth has experienced in 174 years. If you took the chance to be outside, or you couldn't avoid it during that month, you probably felt it: overwhelming stifling and impressive heat. Those spikes in temperature are becoming all to common, lasting longer that before, happening in months that they didn't used to. And we've definitely noticed these changes as we crank up the air conditioning, but how often do any of us think about heat and its long-lasting and sometimes devastating effect on the world? For more on this, KCBS Radio's Mary Hughes spoke with Jeff Goodell, a Bay Area native and best selling author who has tackled the topic of climate change for years.…

On August 8th, 2023, fires began to spark in Maui, which then turned into deadly blazes. Spurred on by strong winds from hurricane Dora and weeks of dry conditions, a nightmare scenario has played out on the Island, with entire neighborhoods in Lahaina reduced to ash and a death toll of over 100 people so far. But while the devastation is immense and difficult to wrap out heads around, there's also stories of strength and community coming together that we are hearing from the Island. For more, KCBS Radio's Mary Hughes spoke with KCBS Radio's Jennifer Hodges, who has been reporting from Maui, and Dr. Mia Livaudais, Professor of Public Health at Cal State East Bay.

Two of the biggest unions in San Jose, which represent over 4,000 workers, have reached a stalemate with the city and voted yes for a three day strike. While both sides have met again for renegotiations, if an agreement isn't met soon, on of the largest planed strikes in recent history will happen on August 15th, 2023. Of course this isn't the only battel being waged between city workers and the city they serve, a one day strike just occurred in Los Angeles with over 7,000 city workers taking to the street. The demand for higher wages, better working conditions, and more respect is a call that seems to be coming from all sides, from the public to the private sector. But will this increase in strikes, and for some in unionizing in the first place, end up giving workers what they're looking for? And can cities and employers employers realistically meet the demands? For more, KCBS Radio's Mary Hughes spoke with Enrique Lopezlira, director of the Low-Wage Work program at the UC Berkeley Labor Center, and Michael LeRoy Professor of Labor and Employment Relations.…

SAG-AFTRA members picket outside of Netflix headquarters in Los Gatos. The Screen Actors Guild joined the Writers Guild of America, who have been engaged on the frontlines of this dispute with studios since May 2nd, 2023. Its also the first time the two unions have been on a simultaneous strike since 1960. At the heart of the strikes is something that is familiar to many of us: Financial stability. But there's something new in there that we're having to grapple with these days: Artificial intelligence, and the role it will play in our lives. With negotiations between the unions and the studios currently at a standstill what does this mean for Hollywood going forwards. when all is said and done will there still be a space for those who dream of making it big on the silver, and even the smaller screen.

This weekend is the one year anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling in Dobbs versus Jackson Women’s Health Organization. It overturned the abortion protections created in Roe v. Wade. Abortion is still legal here in California. And last November voters approved with a two-thirds majority a ballot measure that put the right in the state constitution. But that doesn't mean all Californians support it. Access to abortions varies dramatically from big coastal cities and more rural parts of the state. This week on KCBS In Depth, we’re taking a closer look at the current state of abortion in the Golden State. Host: Raquel Maria Dillon.…

In many ways it has gotten genuinely easier to talk about mental health struggles in recent years: The message is out there now that it’s ok to not feel ok. It’s normal to struggle, and it’s also normal to need a little (or perhaps even a lot) of help from time to time. But easier does not mean easy, and on this edition of KCBS In Depth , we'll be pushing on the bounds of that comfort zone to ask one of the most difficult questions of all: Why it is that many people struggle with an urge to end their own life. Helping us explore that challenging question is someone who knows its contours all too well: Clancy Martin , a philosophy professor at the University of Missouri, Kansas City. He just wrote a new book in which he gives a vivid account of his own lifelong struggle with suicide, which has included multiple attempts. It's called, “ How Not To Kill Yourself: A Portrait of the Suicidal Mind .” Special note: If you or someone you know is having a tough time, you can find support by calling or texting the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline .

When it comes to solving the homelessness crisis, should we focus most on long term fixes or the immediate crisis on our streets? It’s a question that is riling up cities throughout California, including San Jose, which is right now facing a funding dilemma over whether to spend scarce resources on affordable housing or new shelter space. Admittedly, it is a somewhat wonky policy debate, but at the same time, it touches on the central question of the homelessness crisis: that is, how we can help people get out of homelessness, and stay out for good.

Nearly 50 years ago a Korean American immigrant named Chol Soo Lee was convicted of a murder in San Francisco’s Chinatown that he did not commit. Lee spent ten years in prison after that arrest, and very possibly might have spent his whole life there if it were not for the dogged advocacy of Asian American activists who saw in his case a grave injustice born of racism and indifference. By the time of Lee's death in 2014, this movement had largely been forgotten, but a new documentary film is reviving the memories. On this edition of KCBS In Depth , we revisit a seminal moment in the history of Asian American identity with the directors behind the film, " Free Chol Soo Lee ." Guests: Julie Ha , co-director, "Free Chol Soo Lee" Eugene Yi , co-director, "Free Chol Soo Lee" Gail Whang , former member, Bay Area Chol Soo Lee Defense Committee Host: Keith Menconi Special note: The film is available to stream on the PBS YouTube channel until May 23rd and the PBS App until July 22nd.…

Earlier this past week, California began the deployment of CHP officers to San Francisco in an effort to help clamp down on drug trafficking. The hope is that with more boots on the ground -- and additional assistance from California National Guard members as well -- San Francisco will begin to get a handle on the open air drug markets that have overrun portions of the city. But the move is also drawing fierce push back from those who say a law enforcement crackdown is no way to address what is fundamentally a public health crisis. So on this edition of KCBS In Depth , we’ll hear from both sides as San Francisco and the entire state search for answers in the face of this spiraling epidemic of drug addiction.
