    Candyland's San Diego Roots, the Padres' Hot August, and a Surf Fest Hits Oceanside | Episode 291

    Chris and Cassidy are back with another round of San Diego stories, local happenings and a few things we definitely didn’t know before this episode. We get into one of the most exclusive wellness retreats in the country hiding in San Marcos, a speakeasy-style custom hat shop, San Diego FC getting back in the win column, the surprisingly cool MLB Gold Card, and what’s new around San Diego County. Plus, Jimbo’s is expanding, Super Girl Surf Fest is back in Oceanside, and one longtime North County tradition won’t be happening this year.

    Born in San Diego, Made in Jalisco: The Bebemos Tequila Story with Preston Caffrey | Episode 288

    We sit down with Preston Caffrey, co-founder and CEO of Bebemos Tequila, to hear how a move from Santa Cruz to San Diego eventually led to the creation of a homegrown tequila brand. Preston shares his journey from more than two decades in the mortgage business to launching We Drink Tequila and partnering with the Gonzalez family in Jalisco to create Bebemos.
