Podcasts about Central Coast

Born in 1986, Chris Burkard grew up on California's Central Coast and knew from a young age that he had to get out. Photography became the avenue. Primarily self-taught, Burkard won the Follow the Light Foundation grant in 2006, and away he went, working as a senior staff photographer for Surfline, Water magazine, and Surfer magazine, as well as freelancing for The New Yorker, National Geographic, and ESPN.com. In 2009, he was contracted by Patagonia to be a projects photographer. Burkard's photo books include The California Surf Project, Come Hell or High Water: The Plight of the Torpedo People, Distant Shores, High Tide, and The Boy Who Spoke to the Earth. Along with still photographs, he makes films, including Russia: The Outpost Volume 1, Faroes: The Outpost Volume 2, The Cradle of Storms, and Under an Arctic Sky. You might glean from those titles that Burkard has a penchant for the colder locales. On that note, he started photographing Iceland about two decades ago—and fell so in love with the place that, a couple years ago, he up and moved there with his wife and two sons. Along with photography, Burkard is also an avid adventurer, recently completing a 90-mile fat-tire bike ride across Vatnajökull, Europe's largest glacier. In this episode of Soundings, Burkard talks to host Jamie Brisick about traveling, Ansel Adams, the allure of cooler climates, finding purpose, moving to Iceland, the state of surf photography, and the challenges and rewards of environmentalism.

Yoga is integral in her daily life and she is currently Longwave's Yoga resident SeaGal facilitator, devoted to fostering community through a shared connection with the ocean.    Raised on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia, her spiritual path began early through learning about the local environment and waterways.

Hometown Radio 09/10/25 3p: Glen Matteson from the Central Coast Railroad Museum

Valley Fever cases are rising on the Central Coast, with Monterey County's increase larger than others'. And, a bill to allow rideshare drivers to unionize advances.

It's been over a year since I traded my life in California for one in Italy. And while I've easily fallen into daily life here, I still crave the way California marked the seasons—not always with weather (hello, San Francisco), but with food. For the eight years I lived in the Bay Area, food was always the signal of change: Early Girl tomatoes in the summer; Dungeness crab and citrus brightening the winter. This week's guest brings us a taste of that California seasonality. Elizabeth Poett is a seventh-generation rancher, living and working on her family's 14,000-acre property outside of Santa Barbara. In her first cookbook, The Ranch Table, she invites us along for a year on the ranch: from Branding Day feast in the spring to summer beach cookouts, fall garden harvest, and winter holiday gatherings.Episode 172: Elizabeth PoettElizabeth joined me last year in San Francisco, at our studio in The Civic Kitchen cooking school, and shared her approach to cooking. Much of her inspiration comes from her family heritage, as with the handwritten recipe cards passed down from her grandfather.In our conversation, Elizabeth shares:* How her cookbook The Ranch Table tells the story of a year on her family's California ranch through seasonal recipes and gatherings.* Why community and abundance are at the heart of her cooking.* How recipes serve as heirlooms, connecting generations across time.Plus, we put Elizabeth to the test in our signature culinary game.The Ranch Table: Recipes from a Year of Harvests, Celebrations, and Family Dinners on a Historic California Ranch by Elizabeth PoettFrom the star of Magnolia Network's popular show Ranch to Table—a stunningly beautiful cookbook celebrating a year on a ranch on the California coast, featuring simple yet festive recipes, inspiring menus, and fascinating culture and history.Elizabeth Poett was raised on Rancho San Julian, a 14,000-acre ranch on Santa Barbara's Central Coast that her family has been working since 1837. Her years are structured around the land's natural rhythms and annual events: celebrations big and small, harvests, and work days that bring her family and community together—and always end with large meals for everyone to share. Elizabeth feeds her friends and family with seasonal ingredients—including vegetables and meat grown and raised on the ranch and fish from California's Central Coast—barbecuing tri-tips, turning local cod into tacos, and using heirloom tomatoes and summery eggplant into delicious, family friendly pastas.Much like Elizabeth's life, The Ranch Table is also organized around the work and celebrations that take place on the San Julian throughout the year, giving readers and cooks a chance to dive into the ranch's most important workdays, family traditions big and small, and annual celebrations. Each chapter begins with a description of an event or a special day—the work of a branding, the joys of the annual family reunion, the fun of a fall cider press, the quiet beauty of a winter evening spent at the kitchen table—and invites you to join in on the day with both beautiful photos of the ranch today and archival images of its past. In each chapter, Elizabeth also shares the recipes for the dishes she makes for these occasions.We

Dedicated, diligent and competitive are characteristics that will take you far, and they are part of what makes Ben Jauregui in demand among California berry growers.Jauregui is a PCA with AG RX, a valued company that works with Redox products. He shepherds 2,000 acres of crops along California's Central Coast, predominately strawberries. Part of his successful formula involves continuing his hunger to learn more about the best agronomy. “Being able to compete against myself, compete against previous years is crucial,” he said. “If I end up producing still more fruit, I still think I can learn something more from that. Maybe there's a certain fertilizer that they did that allowed the plant to manipulate more flowers, that allowed for better size, or just going back to that flavor profile.”Ben was featured earlier on Episode 81, Meet Ben NPK.

We start this episode with The Nonprofit Story with Dr. Consuelo Meux, where she speaks with Garry Peterson from the nonprofit Shower the People about the impact that showers have on the lives of the homeless community on the Central Coast. Then, for Wine Country, journalist and author Mira Honeycutt talks to James and Manoli Boutzoukas of Boutz Cellars about Greek wines and the importance of heritage. And, last, we have KCSB News Director Rosie Bultman speaking with Carolyn Krueger from the Central Coast Anti-War Coalition about a weekly picket calling on people to boycott Chevron in San Luis Obispo.

This week we introduce you to Welcome Home Village, a remarkable effort to build supportive homeless housing on the Central Coast using 150,000 recycled plastic bottles per housing unit, meeting the urgent housing need within our community 70% faster and 30% less expensively.

LEAP Central Coast is a nonprofit that began in Isla Vista to serve the needs of families and children. Originally known as Isla Vista Youth Projects, the nonprofit has since expanded its services beyond Santa Barbara, including everything from trauma-informed childhood care, to basic necessities like diapers, to education workshops for parents. The organization goes beyond just childwatch with a unique trauma-informed program to prepare kids for kindergarten. KCSB's Clarissa Hom spoke with Kara Shoemaker to learn more about the organization.

Are the words you're speaking building connection or creating distance with your teen?Could everyday phrases be unintentionally fueling your child's anxiety or shame? In this heartwarming and eye-opening episode, Colleen O'Grady talks with Amy Hughes—mother of nine, writer, parenting coach, and author of the upcoming book Words Like Honey. Together, they explore the profound impact of the words we speak to our children, especially during the teen and young adult years. Amy shares how common phrases like “hurry up” or “don't be sad” can trigger stress responses in kids and how language rooted in fear or control can erode connection. Drawing from her own imperfect journey and deep experience as a mother, Amy introduces the “4 Rs” framework—Rethink, Replace, Reframe, and Repair—offering parents a path to more intentional and healing communication. The episode is a compassionate reminder that it's never too late to choose grace-filled words that build trust and nurture faith. Amy Hughes is a writer, speaker, and parenting coach based on California's Central Coast. A mother of nine children ranging from toddler to 30 years old, Amy's warmth, humor, and real-life parenting wisdom have made her a sought-after conference speaker. She's a featured contributor to Wild + Free and has been published in Scary Mommy, Encourage, Christian Unschooling, and more. Her upcoming book, Words Like Honey: How to Avoid Unintentional Harm, Model Kindness, and Nurture Your Child's Faith Through What You Say, is available wherever books are sold. Find her at simplelittleamy.com or on Instagram @simplelittleamy. Three Key Takeaways: Our words shape our children's inner world. Phrases we say often—like “be careful” or “what's wrong with you?”—can unintentionally trigger anxiety, shame, or self-doubt. Awareness is the first step to change. Repair is always possible. Even if we've said the wrong thing in the past, taking ownership and apologizing can restore connection and model humility and growth. Life-giving language builds trust. Instead of threats, comparisons, or venting, Amy encourages us to use specific encouragement, curiosity, and kindness to create lasting bonds with our teens and young adults.

Jaime Holm, the Founder & VP, Design of Tinker Tin Company, was born and raised on the Central Coast of California. She is inspired by nature's perfectly imperfect textured rhythm and implements this ethos throughout her work. As a young female entrepreneur in a male-dominated industry, creating a company with over 500,000 square feet of manufacturing facilities in the USA and Mexico is no small feat. With in-house engineering, design, prototyping, + project management, Tinker Tin manufactures up to 10,000+ units for major retailers such as Boot Barn, Coachella, Red Bull, and more. Jaime's experience and ingenuity guided her to intentionally grow Tinker Tin, a zero-debt company, making for a solid foundation for the steady growth Tinker Tin has experienced year over year. When Jaime isn't leading expansion at Tinker Tin, you can find her adventuring with her little wildings, Smokey & Sawyer, and husband Carl, reading, gardening, riding her horses, hiking, surfing, or sharing meals with friends and family!

In this episode, we welcome Hilary Graves, Vineyard and Grower Relations Manager at Booker Wines, to discuss how she successfully transitioned an Organic vineyard to regenerative organic certification. With over 20 years of field experience on California's Central Coast, Hilary brings practical strategies and candid stories about what it really takes to move beyond standard organic practices. Hilary explains the core pillars of regenerative organic certification — soil health, social fairness, and animal welfare — and why she and the team at Booker Wines chose to pursue this path. She walks listeners through how integrating multi-species cover crops, implementing low-till and no-till practices, and bringing in grazing livestock have helped improve soil structure, increase water retention, and reduce reliance on inputs. Fritz and Hilary also dig into the challenges of vineyard mechanization on steep terrain, minimizing tractor passes, and creative pest control strategies, including releasing predatory lacewings by drone to combat leafhoppers. Whether you're already farming organically or just exploring what's next, this episode offers tangible examples of how even small changes can drive long-term benefits for your soil, your business, and the environment. In this episode, you will hear: The difference between organic and regenerative organic certification How to build a diverse cover crop blend (and why 15 species might be better than five) Using a Yeomans plow to increase water infiltration without disturbing soil structure Grazing sheep for cover crop termination in a mutually beneficial partnership Why releasing beneficial insects by drone can outpace traditional sprays for pest control Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

Militarized ICE and Homeland Security raids targeted farms in California's Central Coast on July 10th, with 200 farm workers ending up arrested, some being critically injured and one tragically losing his life. Masked and heavily armed ICE agents used tear gas and rubber bullets to target workers and those who came to their defense.As soon as community members got word of the possible raids, they sprung into action, tracking the ICE caravan and sharing notifications through community networks that have been built up to keep residents safe from ICE. Organizations like VC Defensa mobilized to the Glass House Farms in Camarillo, staying for hours. To talk more about what happened in Ventura County, we're joined by Ryan Drury and Lainy Yompian of the organization VC Defensa.Support the show

The chilling impacts of ICE raids across the Central Coast have people wondering how aggressive immigration enforcement will impact this year's Old Spanish Days Fiesta. The City's longest-running annual community event opens on Wednesday. A children's carnival has been canceled over fears of low attendance, but the food vendors and entertainment at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church is happening. Old Spanish Days organizers said they worked with city officials to create a protocol should ICE show up at any events. Ten years ago, during her first Fiesta as a local resident, KCSB's Lisa Osborn spoke with Fiesta Historian Erin Graffy - and her brother, historian Neal Graffy, to learn more about the history of Fiesta. Erin died in January, she is being remembered in some of this year's Fiesta events and exhibitions.
