I always feel a bit unmoored between podcast seasons.

(Did you know we had an I Heart Costa Mesa podcast? Click here!)

Partly it’s because our producer, Danny Thompson, is an *actual* rockstar, which means two things:

1) He’s, like, the coolest person we know.

2) He’s touring a lot.

So we get creative and work our podcast schedule around his tour dates.

When we are recording episodes, it’s a wild spree. Bam-bam-bam – interview after interview – very fast and furious so we can squeeze them in before their air dates.

Then just as quickly as it begins? It’s over. Danny is off to play for adoring crowds in Europe or Austin or NYC, and Brandy and I are podcastaways drifting aimlessly around Costa Mesa until the next season begins.

Like I said, unmoored.

But after two months of down time, the holidays are over and we’re starting to line up guests for Season 3 of the I Heart Costa Mesa Show. Woot! The creative juices are starting to flow, and soon, the words will be, too.

This is the part of the process where we really need your help, readers! Who are some of your favorite Costa Mesans? The ones with the best stories, the funniest one-liners, the deepest insights?

Send us your most-interesting neighbors so we can consider them for the podcast! We’d love to spend some time with them, behind the mic.

Episode 1 of Season 3 will drop on Friday, March 8th and run weekly for 15 episodes, after that. You can listen on the Apple Podcasts App, Podbean, Soundcloud or our website.
