al Frisco, a bi-monthly podcast, rekindles the immediacy of Herb Caen’s “three-dot journalism” by reporting on the news and societal happenings of the day, directly to listeners, in a fresh and entertaining manner. Co-hosted by three longtime San Francisco residents and cultural arbiters: Kevin Hunsanger, Meaghan Mitchell and Stuart Schuffman (plus nightlife updates from Marke Bieschke), al Frisco will provide a ringside seat at the rapidly changing landscape of one of the world’s great cities before, during, and after the impact of COVID-19.

al Frisco Pilot Episode notes:
Welcome to al Frisco, the esseff podcast. I’m your producer and co-host, Kevin Hunsanger, and in this, our PILOT episode, Meaghan Mitchell, Broke Ass Stuart, and myself, reflect on the once legendary diner culture of the City. We’ll also not only tell you what’s opening and closing these days, but we’ll clue you in to some historic locations where you can enjoy take away picnics. Our feature interview is with legendary photographer Michael Zagaris – he’s going to be filling us in on everything baseball under the current covid restrictions. And don’t forget to save some room for The Stud’s Marke B, who’ll be bringing us up to speed on trends in Bay Area nightlife.
