What makes Steve Madrone tick? On today’s episode of Humboldt Tea-Time, John Kennedy O’Connor doses the Fifth District Supervisor with powerful, ego-dissolving tannins delivered by his trusty bags of PG Tips … all in an effort to find out the answer to exactly that question!

What lured a young Boy Scout to Humboldt, back in the halycon days of the Humboldt longhairs round about 1973? What drew him into environmental causes, and then to politics?

Today’s official tea time snack is Curried Egg Tea Sandwiches. Go whip some up and put the kettle on, and when you’re all ready press the big PLAY button on the video above for a conversation with Supervisor Steve Madrone.
