The latest North State and California news on our airwaves for Friday, Feb. 14.

In today’s episode:

The Saga has been Pleasant Valley High School’s student-run news outlets for decades. It was brought back online after COVID-19 quarantines were lifted.

Also, a woman from Red Bluff has been missing for a week and her family is requesting help from the community to find her. Thirty-four-year-old Lauren Guillen disappeared last Wednesday evening after leaving her home on Walnut Street at 10 p.m.

Plus, The Bookstore in Chico has created a space for the community to get lost in the pages for nearly five decades.
