I am doing research for a novel centered on Lotta Crabtree and the gold rush. Please tell us you are continuing your podcasts because I am enjoying them immensely, although I haven't found any for 2010. Again, thank you for these exquisite episodes into CA history.

You do an excellent job of bringing us into the past and showing us around. I have mentioned this episode on my newest blog entry, where I shared just a handful of the stories commemorating the Great Quake of 1906. Another great podcast, Richard!

I came by to see Caruso's sketch but cannot locate it here :( Keep up the great work! I'm loving the music, production, information, attitude, research, humor, and the website with extras on each episode is excellent! Your sis one of the best published most polished well-done podcasts out there! -Sam "The New Yorker who left his heart in S.F." Thanks again for another great episode.

That concert mentioned at the end of the podcast sounds like something not to be missed. Thanks for another good show- good idea to follow the quake through Caruso's eyes. Like the previous post, it would be good to hear more stories relating to this event. And more about the Palace Hotel, like you mentioned.

The exhibit at the Legion of Honor showing photographs taken in 1906 side by side with those of the same vantage in 2003-4 was amazing. Later this month, I'm taking a special Quake-related walking tour by City Guides from Market Street to Union Square. It's a great time to be interested in San Francisco history!
