Episode 15 - Measure 50, Giants Shake-Up & Local Politics | The Game Podcast

In this episode of The Game with Mark Simon and Bob Marks, we take a wide-ranging look at politics, culture, sports, and community issues shaping life on the Peninsula.

The discussion moves to Charlie Kirk, the First Amendment, and the state of political speech, followed by a pivot into sports with the San Francisco Giants’ dismissal of Bob Melvin.

From there, we dive into the San Mateo County Sheriff’s race, the impact of district elections, and the growing struggles around housing for younger residents. Finally, we close with a candid conversation about what it really takes to run for office—discipline, likability, and relentless drive.
