Bakersfield Today discusses the single women problem
BY LOUIS AMESTOY Californian staff writer lamestoy@bakersfield.com
In a wide ranging show, Louis Amestoy and Jamie Butow cover a lot of ground during the Thursday edition of Bakersfield Today, but much of it focuses on hoarding (or stockpiling, if you believe Jamie) and the lack of desirable single women in Kern County.
We lead our show off with some important news items including the rise of animals being euthanized in the county and a rash of Honda thefts at Bakersfield College.
In another segment, we cover some of the interesting activities available for people this weekend, and Jamie preps for the Valentine's Day weekend.
All of this and more on Bakersfield Today.
