Wow, the Board of Supes squeezed every last drop out of the year in their contentious, legislation packed final meeting of 2009.

Melissa Griffin, she of the Sweet Melissa site and the weekly San Francisco Examiner column, is just the person to answer all our questions. More smoking bans? The whole zoo animal thing? Muni driver pay cuts? She’s going to cut through the wonkery and give us some Real Talk.

The show goes live at 4 — and if it’s 4 and you can’t see us, please hit refresh — it’s a Justin.tv thing, for which we apologize. (Right now the player has the title of last week’s show, but that’ll be fixed soon!) And hit us with your questions in the comment box.
