Podcasts about balboa island

“W.S. Collins: Balboa Island Visionary, Con Man or Both?” takes a deep dive into the life of the most intriguing figure in Newport history: W.S. Collins. The farsighted land speculator is best known for buying the entire Newport Beach townsite (almost all of the peninsula) in 1902. And for his next act, he created Balboa Island out of a tiny, mosquito-ridden mudflat.But Collins also had a darker side that's been rarely explored, whether it was literally trying to hang a second-grader in his first job as an teacher in Kansas, marrying five times, conducting shady business deals, or going bankrupt and leaving behind a partially (and poorly) developed Balboa Island along with an island full of angry residents. Looked at as a whole, Collins packed in an insane amount of living in his 88 years. In addition to his Newport exploits, he also was a citrus farmer, oilman, dealmaker, championship motorcyclist, early car enthusiast, speedboat champion, and serial entrepreneur, among other things. For our money, W.S. Collins is the most interesting person in Newport Beach history.

This week on the podcast, Ryan and Patrick take a little detour to Newport Beach, CA to participate in a Jimmy Buffett-themed parade.

For more than 50 years, the Collins Castle stood sentry over Newport Harbor. The concrete mansion once rivaled the stately Balboa Pavilion—five years its junior— for the attention of boaters on the bay. Located on tiny Collins Island, which is one of three islands that make up Balboa Island, the castle was built by Balboa Island's original developer, W.S. Collins, in the early 1910s and has been a part of Newport Beach lore ever since.

In 1909, W.S. Collins wanted to massively increase the footprint of his Balboa Island development. The land extension would have cut the width of Newport Harbor's main channel by more than half. In those days, the federal government had final approval of any plans for the harbor, so the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers sent Captain D.E. Hughes to assess the situation. In just 960 words, he delivered a masterpiece of a report (part love letter, part manifesto) that amazingly predicted the future of Newport Beach and its harbor with great precision and beautifully laid out the argument that the harbor's waterways should be reserved for the people's enjoyment and not a developer's profits.His observations killed Collins' plans for a super-sized Balboa Island and set the precedent that the harbor should be enjoyed by all.

Are you having a hard time making friends as an adult? Speed friending events are popping up across LA to help folks connect. Balboa Island's ferry has been making the trip back and forth across the harbor since 1919, but new state environmental mandates may sink it. Near LA, DDT is contaminating an area of the seafloor that's larger than the city of San Francisco. Scientists and policymakers are racing to find solutions.

I sit down with Sheri Drewry of Wilma's Patio to discuss how this business - around for 40 years - has become such a place.The Best Ceats Podcast brings unprecedented access to the Orange County hospitality industry each and every episode.

Ever wonder how a Newport Beach road, school, park, surf spot, canyon or even an offshore rock formation got its name? There's a sadness to the fact that the name's meaning--which was so obvious back in the day--has been lost, something only after a few decades. Time is a thief, and it quickly robs us of the knowledge of such things as why a ravine in Corona del Mar is called Buck Gully, how Jamboree Road got its name or who was Apolena of Apolena Avenue fame, one of the only streets on Balboa Island not named after a gemstone.Well, time may be a thief, but we've taken back what's ours. There's the story behind 40 names that can be found around Newport Beach.

A race-car track on Balboa Island. Surfboard licenses. Tearing down the China House. Newport Beach, in one form or another, has been around for more than 150 years, and over that time, there's been some terrible ideas floated, and some even implemented. In the first installment of this three-part episode, we countdown the 20th to the 13th worst ideas in Newport Beach history. 

In this episode of In The Bunker Joshua Maddux talks with Wing Lam of Wahoo's Fish Taco. Wing shares about some of the challenges that they faced at the onset of the pandemic. Some of those challenges changed their business and one launched a nonprofit called the https://californialovedrop.org (CA Love Drop). Our episode highlights: Look around and talk with your neighbors, customers, and competitors. Get creative when you are trying to make changes.  Think about how you are packaging your “offering”, and get creative making a solution that solves the full problem. Bio: Wing Lam is the co-founder of Wahoo's Fish Taco and has nearly 40 years of experience in the restaurant industry. Wing Lam, a Chinese immigrant, spent his childhood in Sao Paulo, Brazil, before he moved to Costa Mesa. In 1970, Lam's father, Cheong Lee, opened a Chinese restaurant called Shanghai Pine Garden, which the family still owns, on Balboa Island. Wing and his two brothers co-founded Wahoo's Fish Taco in 1988.

In our fourth, multi-choice pop quiz on Newport Beach history, find out:Why you would find horses on the beach at between the the late 19th Century and the 1930s.What was the castle on Collins Island converted to in the 1940s.Who were the previous tenants of the Mariners Mile building (a classic in Southern California modern architecture) now occupied by the upscale A'marees boutique.What were three things that Newport Beach could "crow" about, according to a Los Angeles Times article in 1883.Why a Newport Beach man generated international headlines in 1940.

Date night, sun tanning, surfing, Balboa Island and Charlie's Chili are just some of the highlights of Eric and Kiley's family vacation in Newport Beach, California.

Joe Beek is known as the Father of Balboa Island and operator of the Balboa Island ferry for a half century (his family still runs it after more than 100 years). But he was so much more than that. Here's just some of his feats: He was Newport's first harbor master; he marked the bay's channels, built the channel-marker buoys himself, and, in 1923, climbed jetty rocks to place warning lights at the harbor entrance .He served on the city library's first Board of Trustees.He served in World War II at the age of 61 after forging his birth certificate.He founded Newport's Tournament of Lights Boat Parade in 1921, a summer event so popular that the city's police chief asked him to shut it down in 1949 because visitors were overwhelming the city.He was the developer of some of Newport's signature housing communities.He served a record 49 years as the secretary of the California Senate, receiving bipartisan support for nearly a half century.The story of his life is truly legendary. 

The Corona del Mar jetty is in the process of getting a much-needed makeover. The tattered, 12-foot-wide boardwalk running 750 feet from Pirate's Cove to the rock section of the jetty is getting a new coat of cement, and more boulders are being added on the harbor side so they'll be at the same level as the boardwalk. The work now being done by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers caused me to look at the Corona del Mar jetty with fresh eyes. And I couldn't believe what I saw (and wondered why I didn't see it sooner!). The jetty looked like the work of Dr. Frankenstein. It starts off with about 750 feet of concrete that more or less parallels the West Jetty (at the Wedge), and then, just beyond the waterline, the jetty becomes large rocks and juts off several degrees west for the next 1,000 feet. This looks like a jetty that's been put together by committee. There has to be a story behind that, right?It turns out that there's a great story behind the Corona del Mar jetty's unique look, including lost lives, ignored recommendations, a self-dealing (and incompetent) city engineer, an accidental wave-generating machine, a citizens' revolt and more. The straightening out the story of Corona del Mar jetty is included in this pop quiz. The five questions are: What was the origin name of Balboa Island?In 1893, the first hotel was opened in Newport Beach near what today is the Newport Pier. What was its name?In 1916, Corona del Mar's second developer, F.D. Cornell, attempted to change Corona del Mar's name to what?In 1940, Newport Beach held a citywide election that asked voters what?Why does the Corona del Mar jetty start with 750 feet of concrete and then, just past the waterline, change direction slightly to the west and become rocks for the next 1,000 feet?Good luck, Newport scholars!

A five-question, multiple-choice pop quiz on Newport Beach history. Here are the questions (no Googling before listening):Which Newport Harbor island was allegedly won in a high-stakes poker game by a Hollywood celebrity?

It was sold by a lot of damn crooks to a lot of damn fools.” Here's a list of five historical sites in Newport Beach. Which one is *not* an official California Historical Landmark. Before Corona del Mar Plaza was built at the corner of East Coast Highway and MacArthur Boulevard, what was planned for that land? Hint: It involved a famed Italian architect, Irvine Company Chairman Donald Bren and a local, national and even international controversy.

Host Bart Zandbergen welcomed Will and Courtney Alovis of Balboa Island’s iconic Sugar ‘n Spice into the studio. The dynamic duo spent decades on set in Hollywood working on some of the most notorious TV and movie sets. Courtney Alovis dedicated nearly 25 years in Hollywood glamming up TV stars, models and movie moguls such as Donny Osmond (she was his personal makeup artist for 7 years) Greg Kinnear, Brooklyn Decker, Jerry Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, and Shannon Elizabeth. Not to mention she was an in-demand makeup artist for popular shows like The Voice, General Hospital, Days of Our Lives, and various other shows on ABC, NBC, and CBS. Will Alovis spent 30 years in the entertainment industry, 15 of them script supervising for award winning shows like Empire, CSI Miami, CSI New York, Bones and Law and Order Special Victims Unit. However, when Courtney’s mom – who owned Balboa Island’s beloved Sugar ‘n Spice- was diagnosed with a terminal illness, the couple left Hollywood and set out for Orange County. Today, they are more excited than ever to be at the helm of the original frozen banana shop and are celebrating the shop’s 75th Anniversary this year. In this episode, learn:-How Will and Courtney transitioned from Hollywood to Balboa Island, and how they now get to be involved with shows like Blackish and Grownish -How the couple channeled their entrepreneurial spirit to develop and launch the catering truck side of the business for Sugar ‘n Spice -What some of their biggest learning lessons were going from employee status to employer status -What Sugar ‘n Spice has planned for a special roll-back day in March, and what sweet treats patrons will have access to at yester-year pricingWhen asked what their ultimate lessons learned were, Courtney shared that she focuses on trying to unlearn what she has learned, so that she can evolve. She tries to be open to new and creative ways of doing things. Will shared that his ultimate lesson learned has been that it is never too late to start something new. He believes you are always able to make different choices to build the life you have always wanted. The Zandbergen Report, where wealth strategies, investment wisdom and pop culture collide, is led by host Bart Zandbergen, with featured guest host Letitia Berbaum, every Tuesday at 2pm on OC Talk Radio. In addition to being streamed live in real time, the show is also available on Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Podbean and Stitcher.

Dr. Snuggles and friends return for episode 41 of our spin-off show about the weird world of softcore skin-flicks! This episode, we go deep into the world of filmmaking! We check out Jag Mundhra’s 1993 dramedy L.A. Goddess - about a body double and her deeply romantic romance with a movie producer. Weirdly, Joe Estevez, Jeff Conaway and James Hong are all in it. But that’s not even the most exciting part: we were joined for this by Actual Filmmaker Paul C. Miller, writer and director of Maximum Thrust, which we covered back in episode 35. Find out the answers to burning questions such as, ‘Do actors really ask what their motivation is all the time?’, and ‘Was trombone Paul’s first choice of instrument growing up?’, and 'Has Paul ever been to Balboa Island, where Bruce Penhall grew up?'. Plus, we chat about the life and times of Kathy Shower, star of L.A. Goddess, and Playboy's Playmate of the Month for May 1985 and the Playmate of the Year for 1986. She had a surprisingly packed acting career on top of that too, with roles on CHiPs (always with the CHiPs connections on this show lately for some reason), Santa Barbara and even American Kickboxer 2.

Do you follow your "Yes?"Following your "Yes" is about you taking a step forward in your partnerships by taking action and applying at least one thing you heard from our guests during their interviews this week. On today’s episode, all of this week’s guests have generously provided BONUS MATERIAL, not included in the interviews you listened to earlier this week. Each one has provided incredible examples of the power of following your “Yes”.  Enjoy! Adam Lamb Not Following - Adam had a second back surgery and was taking pain killers about a year before surgery and about a year and a half after surgery. He was prescribed pills by the doctor but nothing was said on how to come off them, or follow up planning, or anything. He knew that was odd but didn’t follow his guidance and kept refilling his prescriptions. Find out how he ended up losing the best job he ever had and many other things by not following his “yes”. Following - During around the same timeframe where Adam hit rock bottom with the pain killers and came out of it, he made the decision to live. He received a recording from a friend about spirituality. He really enjoyed it and followed the information on it to go to the website and sign up for her newsletter. He realized that he had met this woman about two years prior. They talked back and forth for a couple of months for business purposes. After a while it was growing to something more. Listen to Adam’s interview here Connect with Adam - His Website Facebook ‘The Morning MANifesto’ ‘MANifesto Radio’ www.aninitiatedman.com Amy Schuber Not Following - When Amy was looking to change her career and looking to change her life, she was living in San Francisco at the time. During that time she had an opportunity to move back to Southern California and into this beautiful beach bungalow in Balboa Island. She ended up saying no. She knew she should have said yes but she didn’t. Even other people were telling her to move, because she was just getting out of a relationship and out of the corporate world. It was an opportunity for change. She said no and knew it should have been a yes. She ended up moving there two years later. Following - Once she did move to Southern California and was exploring career paths, she took an entrepreneurial women’s group. After the 4 -week process, the woman running it asked her if she would like to run it in Orange County. It would be facilitating workshops, monthly meetings, and memberships. She didn’t know much about it when she was asked but she instantly said “yes”. Find out the rest of the story by listening to the podcast.

This week we shine the City Spotlight in Balboa Island, the quaint residential island in the middle of Newport Harbor. Balboa Island Museum Director, Jennifer Keil shares this history of this popular OC destination.

Did you ever wonder why you feel differently when you drive across the bridge onto Balboa Island?  Over the last 100 years people have flocked to Balboa Island for an amazing, heart healthy walk, shopping or dining on a street that makes you feel like you're on vacation or to take a ferry ride that never seems to get old.  CEO Gary Sherwin and his team at Newport Beach and Company are the architects of the Newport Beach brand which is bigger around the world than you may have guessed.  Gary sat down and talked with Joe about the Balboa Island centennial, some fun history about the island and what he and his firm are doing to make, both, visitors and residents proud of our amazing city.  

Debra is a plein air painter from Southern California. She lives in Orange County where she has a studio and a gallery on Balboa Island. She has been featured in Art of the West, and Plein Air magazine, this year, her paintings will be exhibited in Maui Plein Air, and at the California Art Club Gold Medal Exhibition at the Autry Museum. Debra and I talk about…. What she teaches her students about simplification and avoiding the overwhelm of complicated subjects. How she started her own gallery - admitting what you’re good at and delegating the rest. Mistakes artists make when dealing with a gallery. The many plein air events she participates in, and how she uses that consistency to move her work.
