Our guest this week is Bear Degidio. This episode has been in the works for months, and we had a blast finally making it happen. We figured we might as well let the professional who wrote Bear's company website have center stage for this episode description: "His large influencer network and vast marketing experience led him to founding his own digital creative agency, Bear & Honey Group. With experience in direct to consumer marketing and branding, to successfully launching clothing bran...

If you've ever driven through Eastside Costa Mesa, Newport Heights, Dover Shores or CDM and gazed at a spectacular home, there's a good chance KRS built it. In this episode we ask Ross what he likes most about the building business...

Per usual, we learned a ton during this recording, and we think you will too. Sit back,...

After Neiman Marcus closed their restaurant, Mariposa, Anthony and Nancy decided to forge a new path of entrepreneurship, and Modern Charcuterie was born. After 8 weeks delivering orders to their neighbors on the peninsula point, they have been booke...

Whether you're a fan, or a hater, if you're a local, you've probably seen this week's guest on Instagram @ocinstanews. Cedric and I had never met Chad Towersey aka Unkle Tito before recording this episode. We both had our preconceptions about this local personality who always seems to find himself right in the middle of all the action when it comes to breaking news in Newport and Costa Mesa. We were both very eager to find out who the real man behind the character of Unkle Tito really was.Sin...
