It's a local print shop that's employing former foster youth, and raising money to fund Teen Leadership Foundation.

When Chef Thomas Curran's much-hyped, Costa Mesa restaurant didn't pan out, he found himself at a fork in life's road. Fifty, spent, and yearning to rediscover meaning - after years "head down" in the restaurant industry - he was ripe for a change. So, he shuttered Taco Brat, boxed up his stuff, and flew to the East Coast to embark on a journey few would have the courage or fortitude to take: walk across the country.
231 days, countless footsteps - and lots of insights, new friendships and stories later - Thomas Curran completed his walk across the continental United States and has returned to Costa Mesa. Listen in as he shares his story of courage, self-discovery and grit on this beautiful and inspiring episode of the I Heart Costa Mesa podcast.

Jamie Reidling is "OG Westside" - a musician, surfer, skater, dad, community organizer and hardcore Costa Mesa local - and he's on a mission to bring a skatepark to Westside Costa Mesa! On this episode of the podcast we talk about what it was like coming up in Westside Costa Mesa "back in the day," what he's up to now - plus Vans, Acme Skateboards, Boathouse Collective, Westside Museum, SOY, so many more - and why he thinks it's totally ridiculous that Westside youth don't have a skatepark of their own.

If you've noticed the fresh, beautiful modernization of local establishments like Eastside Mini Mart, Jan's Health Bar or Memphis Cafe - or marveled at Pacific City's Lot 579 food court, or the swanky, remodeled Lido Marina Village - you've unwittingly been touched by the design prowess of local Architectural and Interior Designer, Amanda Malson, of Common Standard Design.
On today's podcast, this Eastside Costa Mesan shares the lessons she's learned, her creative process for designing (or redesigning) notable local projects, how she career-hacked the Recession of 2008 and what she loves best about living and working here in Costa Mesa.

On this episode of the I Heart Costa Mesa Show, we get ghosted by our guest! With no one left to interview - and studio time already booked - we pull Producer, Danny Thompson, behind the mic for an off-the-cuff convo around the topic of "fails and what we've learned from them."
Thompson is really knowledgeable in a lot of areas, he's an all-around interesting dude. He co-owns The Music Factory School of Music, is a Podcaster and Marketing Consultant over at Music Lesson Business Academy, produces the I Heart Costa Mesa Show, and is the drummer for the band Face To Face.
In this episode, we talk about small business, haters, touring and travel, struggles, legacy, Yelp, Patreon, work ethic - and, duh, Costa Mesa!

In this episode of I Heart Costa Mesa Show, we "wade into the depths" with Nathan Gebhard, Co-Founder and Creative Director of Roadtrip Nation. Roadtrip Nation started with a few friends who didn't know what to do with themselves after college. So, to figure it out, they piled into a lime-green RV and road-tripped across the country - stopping along the way to interview thought-leaders, creatives and experts for job advice and wisdom about the lives they lead.
The road-trip became a documentary, which inspired a book, that awakened a movement, which became a TV show, which inspired more books, which grew to include a non-profit, that birthed a curriculum - and now there are thematic road-trips being filmed all over the country and students as young as middle-school-age planning their own road-trips, too! All of this is based out of our very own Westside Costa Mesa.
Here at I Heart Costa Mesa, we couldn't be more proud of the authentic work Roadtrip Nation is doing, and has been doing, for 17 years. We are tickled green to have Gebhard on the podcast, sharing that story, vision and mission with us. Climb aboard this episode and you might just get inspired to take a road-trip of your own!

On this episode of The I Heart Costa Mesa Show, we interview pro skateboarder, founder / owner of Intro 2 Skateboarding - and now, Costa Mesan - Jon "Deezle" Depoian. We discuss the art, the action and the culture of skateboarding, how skating has changed his life for the better, what he loves best about coaching the next gen of young skaters - and how he got that sweeeeeet hookup to teach kids' classes at Volcom's private skatepark in Westside Costa Mesa.

Depoian teaches skateboarding to local kids over at Volcom's private indoor skatepark at their HQ in Westside Costa Mesa: https://officesnapshots.com/2016/03/03/volcom-offices-costa-mesa/
The skatepark is "by invite only," but very cool if you can swing it (or signing your kids up for skate classes with Intro 2 Skateboarding will do the trick.)

Treat yo' self! On this episode of The I Heart Costa Mesa Show, we're indulging in an interview with local Master Chocolatier and Costa Mesa resident, Amy Jo Pedone, of Valenza Chocolatier. Pedone has harnessed her Sicilian family heritage, and knack for edible artistry, to create confections as beautiful as they are decadent. Pedone takes us on a journey from quitting her corporate job to family tragedy to starting her own chocolates business at The Hood Kitchen Space in Costa Mesa. (Along with the entrepreneurial highs and lows she's lived along the way.) We get the rundown on all her famous chocolates - the tartarugas (turtles), bonbons, confections and bars - and, of course, we ask her our Fast Final Fives. This is some next-level chocolate talk you'll want to sample... Costa Mesa style!

If Jeff Chon isn't the hardest-working guy in the local restaurant scene, we don't know who is! At age 23, he cut his teeth by buying The Alley Restaurant in Newport Beach - an established eatery with a loyal following. Soon after, he concepted and built-out Tabu Shabu over on East 17th Street in Costa Mesa. The purchase of The Wayfarer (formerly Club Mesa and The Detroit Bar) and launch of Oak & Coal soon followed, and now he's about to open the doors to Love & Puree - all right here in town! In this episode we talk with Chon about Costa Mesa, food, the restaurant industry, breaking into franchising, and why he's so passionate about crafting slow, mindful dining experiences in an otherwise fast-food world. Grab a fork, this is one delicious show!

On this episode of the I Heart Costa Mesa Show... the Swap Meet at the Fairgrounds is almost 50 years old! So we discuss all the new changes going on at the recently re-imagined Orange County Market Place. Now under new ownership, they've got big ideas to modernize the OC Market Place weekend experience, while still staying true to its historic, local roots.
They're re-opening Bob's Old-Fashioned Ice-Cream Stand, plus adding new live music, bespoke treasures, foodie finds, non-profit performances and fundraisers, plans to make it more kid-friendly... and much, much more!
We also have a frank discussion about the reduction in size, in recent years, and the struggles that modern-day retailers face in an online-shopping world.
Jeter's enthusiasm for both the history of the OC Market Place, along with all her fun ideas to liven up the experience, are a breath of fresh air! This episode definitely has us itching to go back and give that swap meet another try.

On this episode of The I Heart Costa Mesa Show, we head down a globetrotting rabbit hole with Matthew Beehler - for whom art isn't just a thing he does, but also an integral philosophy of life. Beehler's made a name for himself as a planner and landscape architect, designing for clients all over the world, like The Mirage, Las Vegas. But today we get to explore his humble, midwestern beginnings and the winding journey of how he got to where he is today. We also talk creativity, balance and, of course, Costa Mesa. Enjoy!
