b'Welcome back to Beyond The Fog Radio! Recording for Season 3 is underway, but in the meantime, our team wanted to take a look back at some of our favorite episodes from both Season 1 and Season 2. This week, we\'re rediscovering our episode on San Francisco\'s North Beach (Season 1 Episode 18). Our esteemed guests are three 80-years-young North Beach residents who are just as lively as the neighborhood itself!\\n\\n\\ufeff\\n\\nNina Clima, Charles Farruggia, and Don Di Basilio grew up together in North Beach and remain dedicated to their community. San Francisco\'s "Little Italy," North Beach is home to charming Victorian homes and family-owned shops and restaurants that keep older Italian traditions alive and well. Many prominent figures of the Beat Generation helped make famous North Beach institutions like the Saloon and City Lights Booksellers, and Francis Ford Coppola\\u2019s production company American Zoetrope has its home in the Sentinel Building at the neighborhood\'s edge. Nina, Charles, and Don went VERY in-depth about North Beach and its history, and we had such a wonderful time chatting with these equally wonderful people.\\n\\nMeet Nina Clima and the Gang!'
