Episode 52: Interview with Vicki Kolakowski

In Episode 52 - (right click on the link and save as) located HERE we recently got to interview Vicki Kolakowski, an administrative law judge in San Francisco and currently a candidate for CA Superior Court in Alameda County. Vicki is openly transgender and would, in the words (and endorsement) of the the San Francisco Bay Guardian, "make history."
