Really enjoying the podcast! The Golden State is the best State 😎 🍷 @mrCAwine
Whenever this podcast pops up in my new episodes list, it is always my first choice to listen right away!
Tips for learning about California and new spots to try are here- I’m a 3rd generation Californian, have a wine tour business and am a tour guide and I am always learning something new! Keep up the great work! I’m a true fan!
I’ve been listening to a couple of these podcasts from San Diego because I used to study there and it’s my absolute favorite place in California! And I wanna go back! ( I’m Norwegian!) Listening to this while having my coffee and making breakfast was a great start of the day! I would love to hear more about places in San Diego! -Thea 24 y.o
A diverse range of topics presented by interesting, upbeat people. I love California and would love to explore more so am enjoying finding out a lot more about places, especially less well known ones or local gems. I’m also learning more about astronomy, rock climbing, surfing, etc so even if you’re not planning to visit California it’s worthwhile listening.
Love!!! The CA Now podcast gives fresh and fun insight into an incredible state. Every time I listen, I end up with another place on my never-ending California bucket list.
