The Jason Lee Podcast.

Welcome back to all new episode of the Jason Lee podcast.

What a week it's been.

I tell you, everybody at home in Stockton thinks that Stockton City Council is's reality show because it's turning into one.

You know, we're fighting the good fight.

It's so sad that we have to fight with people that we actually liked and still like.

You know, I mean, it's not one of these things where I can just hate somebody because we disagree.

But, you know, I will say, you know, being an elected official is really hard because it does require you to

No, because I feel like I'm a little bit of a step away from that because I'm kind of, while you're dealing with all of that, I'm heavily focused on Hollywood Unlock.

But yeah, it's interesting to watch.

How does Hollywood Unlock spill over into your personal life?

I know what you're planning on. We're not going to go there.

No matter what I do, I'm never going to be unattached to it, so I own it.
