Press Play with Madeleine Brand

On this Labor Day, it's a special "Producer's Cut" edition of Press Play. Extended versions of some of our favorite interviews that we've never broadcast before. Like our conversation with resterauteur Dan Tana's daughters. And Ariana Morgenstern, who helped shape KCRW's signature sound.

Kimberlé Crenshaw on what her friend meant to her, and the feminist movement. Plus, a scandal involving the Los Angeles Clippers, weekend film reviews, and Evan Kleiman’s party ideas for Labor Day.

Plus, ebola is still spreading fast in Central Africa, how the arrest of “El Chapo” created a Sinaloa Cartel power vacuum, and an idea to move homes slated for demolition to Altadena’s burnt-out lots.

Plus, California lawmakers pass a bill that would let you put solar panels on your balcony, the Defense Department in disarray under Secretary Pete Hegseth, and why tennis is “the cruelest game.”

Plus, LA leaders are getting nervous about the Olympics’ price tag, why Southern California is wetter and hotter than it’s ever been, and a pair of court cases challenges the Pentagon on First Amendment claims.
