Sal Castaneda’s ‘Bad-Ass’ Muni Moment

We knew we had a treasure on our hands when Sal agreed to tell a story on stage at Muni Diaries Live last month. Today, we’re bringing Sal’s performance to the internets. Delight in hearing your KTVU traffic reporter sprinkle his tale of attempted (and imagined) bravado on the 44 with profanities. Safe work with headphones.

Thanks, Sal!

We have an exciting lineup for Muni Diaries Live on Jan. 21, and here is a sneak peek at some of the performers you’ll see on stage at the Elbo Room, spinning tales of life on public transit.

You’ll see Stephen Elliott — You know him from The Adderall Diaries and The Rumpus. But now you have to hear about what happened to him on the bus.

You’ll also see comedian and spoken-word artist Caitlin Gill, who tells one hell of a dirty haiku at Tourettes Without Regrets.

We’ll reveal the rest of the lineup in a few days, but in meantime, get your tickets now!
