The 2026 Costa Mesa Candidate Conversations page is live! Head on over there to check out the first two interviews with our mayoral candidates, Mike Buley and Loren Gameros.

And yes, there is now a Goat Hill Rodeo Podcast! I am soft-launching this as part of the Candidate Conversations. If you like it, maybe we can do more podcasts in the future.

Thank you again to Mike and Loren for trusting me with this project. It was a pleasure to sit down with each of them.

If I’ve made either a technical error or a transcription error, please bear with me. I’ve never done this before! 😅 If you’d let me know if the comments I’d appreciate it, and I’ll work on getting it fixed ASAP.

I hope you enjoy these!
