Getting to Know Supervisor Alan Wong
Description
As we close out the year, I’m sharing a conversation that feels especially fitting for this moment.
In this episode, I sit down with Alan Wong, the newly appointed Supervisor for San Francisco’s District 4, to talk about his roots in the Sunset, his family’s immigration story, and the experiences that shaped his path into public service.
Before policy positions and headlines, this conversation focuses on the human side - growing up in the neighborhood, learning to serve through student government, protecting language access and education, and navigating leadership in a city that’s always in motion.
This is a reflective, grounded listen to close out the year - about people, place, and how we move forward together, even when change feels uncomfortable.
BONUS: Earlier this month, I joined the Fun Police podcast with my friends, Ben Bleiman, Sharky Laguana, and Manny Yekutiel, for a candid conversation about District 4 and the Sunset. If you’re looking for more context, that episode is linked here.
