I'm so glad that you were able to salvage the visit despite the unfortunate beginning, and I'm honoured (and tickled!) to have earned a place inside your head as you rambled around our hills impressing the locals. Thanks for checking in... Chris – What a simultaneously awful and charming story!

I arrived from Australia on Oct 12 after months of 'study' with your podcasts. Alas, I left my ipod on the plane and when I phoned to report it later that day, the airline (JAL) told me that there was no ipod found, they have no proof I even had an ipod and that passengers can make up anything!!! Not my best introduction to the city. My dreams of wandering around with the sound of your voice to guide my exploration evaporated. Thankfully, I was able to remember quite a bit of San Fran history and info (and was able to impress a few locals to boot!) I will continue to look forward to your podcasts, at least on the net until the ipod can be replaced- there is a holiday to pay for :-( Anyway, thanks again. I never thought that I'd find history, let alone American history, so interesting. Cheers and sunshine, Chris. PS ipod serial no: YM6115K6TK2 4G black.

Classic Bay area scenes and gossip with madcap humor, gotta have the whole series. The offbeat angles are a great lead -in to some well researched history.

I'm getting to know more about San Francisco from The Bay Time Detective than from any other source out there. A great find, Bay Time Detective - keep on keepin' on.
